Genotype : the genetic composition of an individual. Phenotype : the expression of the genotype (appearance, physiology, behavior ) Dominant allele : allele that controls the phenotype. Recessive allele : does not control the phenotype. The pair of alleles for the gene in an individual are the genotype. A homozygous genotype has only one type of allele (either dominant or. A heterozygous genotype has only one type of alleles, produce different versions recessive) of the protein. Heredity : the transmission of traits from one gen. to the next. Parents pass on discrete genes to their offspring. Observed inheritance of traits in garden pea plants. During meiosis, alleles for each locus segregate. Results from homologous chromosomes separation during meiosis. Alleles of different loci distributed randomly into the gamete. Production of new gene combinations not found in parent. If the genes for the two characters were inherited together, then.
