This type of allele causes the
“normal” condition, even if
inherited with a recessive
allele for a disorder.

What is dominant?
A 100
One would not want to have
much phenylalanine with the
disorder.
A 200
What is PKU
(phenylketonuria)?
A 200
This autosomal recessive
disease causes mucus buildup. It results in difficulty
breathing, as well as scarring
or “fibrosis” in the pancreas.
A 300
What is cystic fibrosis?
A 300
Once healthy babies, develop
fatty deposits in their brains
which ends their life at an
early age. (This disorder is
named for an opthalmologist
and a neurologist.)
A 400
What is Tay-Sachs?
A 400
Mental deterioration and
uncontrollable movements
called chorea, results from
this autosomal dominant
disorder whose symptoms
begin in middle age.
A 500
What is Huntington’s
disease?
A 500
The genotype of a whiteeyed Drosophila.
B 100
What is
r
X Y?
B 100
This blood disorder was a royal pain
for prince Alexis of Russia. A
clotting factor did not work properly
and caused internal bleeding.
B 200
What is hemophilia?
B 200
This is something males
cannot ever be, due to
their lack of an
additional X. (They can
never be heterozygous.)
B 300
What is a carrier?
B 300
Cones are altered to some
degree, and so is the
person’s view of the world
caused by this disorder.
B 400
What is colorblindness?
B 400
Dystrophin is not produced
in sufficient quantity to
prevent muscular
degeneration from this
disorder.
B 500
What is (Duchene's)
muscular dystrophy?
B 500
The gender for all squares
and circles.
C 100
What are males
(squares) and females
(circles)?
C 100
The genotype of a circle
or square that is halffilled.
C 200
What is
heterozygous?
C 200
The genotype of a fully
shaded square for a
pedigree of an X-linked
recessive trait.

this x-linked pedigree
C 400
C 400
The pedigree below demonstrates a
disorder inherited by this type of allele.
C 500
What is autosomal dominant
(such as for Huntington’s
disease)?
C 500
This is the name given to anything that
causes a mutation. (It is a combination
of “mutation” and “genetics.”)
D 100
What is a mutagen?
D 100
A point mutation ---an amino
acid --- a faulty protein --odd-shaped blood cells.
D 200
What is sickle-cell anemia?
D 200
If a mutation causes all the
codons to change, this type of
“shift” has occurred.
D 300
What is frame?
D 300
A mutation in which one nucleotide is
substituted for another, and results in a
change in one amino acid. (other than
substitution)
D 400
What is a point
mutation?
D 400
Cystic fibrosis is causes by
this type of mutation, which
involves one codon.
D 500
What is deletion or
subtraction?
D 500
The scientist whose work
with yellow and green
legumes paved the way.
E 100
Who is Mendel?
E 100

genes and sex
chromosomes.

Two scientists who,
working independently,
discovered sex
chromosomes.
E 300
Who are Wilson & Stevens?

Mary Lyon discovered Xinactivation that turned X
chromosomes into dense
masses. (Calico cats have
them.)
E 400
What are Barr bodies?
E 400
The scientist who
produced
chromosome maps
based on crossingover rate.
E 500
Who is Sturtevant?
E 500
Mr. R.C. developed these
handy and predictive
rectangles.
F 100
What are Punnett
squares?
F 100
An autosomal allele causes
pattern baldness, which is
considered this type of
trait. (and may be
polygenic as well)
F 200
What is sexinfluenced?
F 200
A symbolic chart
displaying inheritance of
traits through several
generations.
F 300
What is a pedigree?
F 300
A symbolic representation of
the types of alleles present for
a physical trait.
F 400
What is the genotype?
F 400
Paper strips that taste bitter if

What is PTC paper
(phenylthiocarbimide)?
