14. We each have genes
Found on every chromosome and
They code for traits

15. Your eyes are green
But his are grey and mine are brown
All caused by genes

16. You have two genes, one from mom and one from dad
They’re called alleles

17. Two of the same and homozygous is your name
You’re heterozygous if it’s one of each
heterozygous

21. Phenotype  expression of genes, what you look like
These are your traits

22. Genotype  the genes that control characteristics
On chromosomes

23. Dominance  expressing one trait over another
Recessive is masked

24. Autosomes  they do not determine gender,
Like sex chromosomes
