SECTION 5. TRAITS AND PROBABILITY
1. The "A a" pairs located above the grid and to the left of the grid should be circled.
2. AA, Aa, and aa 3. meiosis; homologous 4. genotype; phenotype 5. 1:2:1 6. 3:1 7. c 8. AB; Ab 9. 9:3:3:1 10. average; exact 11. multiply 12. recessive; unknown 13. allele pairs
SECTION 6. MEIOSIS AND GENETIC VARIATION
1. meiosis; random 2. new combinations of alleles 3. advantage; increases 4. duplicated 5. Refer to Figure 6.2 for visual answers. 6. Box 1: Each cell should contain one large
duplicated chromosome and one small duplicated chromosome. One sister chromatid on each chromosome should appear to have undergone crossing over. Box 2: Each cell should contain one large chromosome and one small chromosome. The exact combination of chromosomes will depend on how the students divided the chromosomes. 7. Yes; a 8. Yes; c 9. No; b 10. crossing over 11. genetic linkage
