- - - - Genotype
        
        Actual gene- the makeup of an organism
        
        Alleles
        
        1.is the color of the eyes or (Hair) alleles is it curly or straight
        2.Different forms of the same gene - example (eyes) are the trait
        
        Heterozygous
        
        Recessive and a Dominant trait - meaning two of the same Xy
        
        Homozygous
        
        Recessive or Dominant trait - meaning one of the same XX
        
        heterozygous
        
        having two different alleles of a certain gene
        
        Clone
        
        an identical offspring from the parent
        
        Cloning dogs is possible for people who love their dogs and want the same one over again for a price tag of 50,000

        Alleles
        
        Punnett square
        
        square diagram that is used to predict the genotype of an offspring
        
        dominant vs recessive alleles
        
        A dominant is a variation of a gene which makes a certain phenotype.
        
        a recessive is a gene which has to be homozygous which has to her inherited to be a phenotype
- - - - the process of when organisms better adapted to survive. For example,humans being able to drink milk and able to tolerate sugar.
      - artificial selection
        
        the process of when humans do selective breeding to animals or plants
