on chromosomes
sexual reproduction
CGAAUU
production of sex cells
substitution, deletion, addition
diploid
purebred tall, purebred short
Cross TT with tt will result in all offspring being hybrids, Tt, which means they will be have the dominant phenotype, but can still carry the recessive allele.

transfer RNA
A gene

The ___________ allele is one whose trait always shows up in an organism when the allele is present
During this process the cell uses information from a gene on a chromosome to produce a specific protein.

what is meiosis
__________ RNA carries amino acids to the ribosome and adds them to the growing protein.
combination of genetic material from two parents that results in the production of a new organism

what is independence of events?
The genetic make up or allele combinations
A ________ cell contains two sets of chromosomes, one set from each parent
__________ RNA copies the coded message from the DNA in the nucleus and carries the message to the ribosome in the cytoplasm.
