Karyotype: the figure produced when the chromsome of a species during metaphase are arranged according to their homologous pairs.

10. Genotype: Two-letter set that represents the alleles an organism possesses for a certain trait. “Tt” “TT” “tt”
Phenotype: The observable expression of an organism’s genes.

11. Give Examples
Homozygous genotype: A genotype in which both alleles are identical.
Heterozygous genotype: A genotype with two different alleles.

12. Give Examples
Dominant allele: An allele that will determine phenotype if just one is present in the genotype.
Recessive allele: An allele that will not determine the phenotype unless the genotype is homozygous in that allele.

13. Pedigree
A diagram that follows a particular phenotype through several generations.
