- 1. Multiple ChoiceWho was Gregor Mendel?A French BotanistA German PhysicianAn American CowboyAn Austrian Monk
- 2. Multiple ChoiceHow many traits did Mendel study in his pea plants?1357
- 3. Multiple ChoiceWhat is cross pollination?When pollen from a flower fertilizes itself or another flower on the same plantWhen pollen from one flower fertilizes a flower on a different plantA plant whose offspring share the same traits as the parentA plant whose offspring is genetically different from the parent.
- 4. Multiple ChoiceWhat is self-fertilization?When pollen from a flower fertilizes itself or another flower on the same plantWhen pollen from one flower fertilizes a flower on a different plantA plant whose offspring share the same traits as the parentA plant whose offspring is genetically different from the parent.
- 5. Multiple ChoiceWhat is true-breeding?When pollen from a flower fertilizes itself or another flower on the same plantWhen pollen from one flower fertilizes a flower on a different plantA plant whose offspring share the same traits as the parentA plant whose offspring is genetically different from the parent.
- 6. Multiple ChoiceWhat did Gregor Mendel do in his first experiment?Self-Pollinated two pea plantsSelf-Pollinated two true-breeding pea plantsCross-pollinated two pea plantsCross pollinated two true-breeding pea plants
- 7. Multiple ChoiceIf Mendel's first experiment involved cross-pollinated a true-breeding round pea plant and a true-breeding wrinkled pea plant, what would the genotypes of the parents have to be?RR x RrRr x Rrrr x rrRR x rr
- 8. Multiple ChoiceWhat did Gregor Mendel discovery in the results of his first experiment?Only the dominant trait appeared!The offspring were all different!Only the recessive trait appeared!The plants were more healthy
- 9. Multiple ChoiceWhat did Gregor Mendel do in his second experiment?Allowed the first generation to self-pollinateAllowed the first generation to cross-pollinateAllowed the first generation to become true-breedingAllowed the first generation to both self-and-cross pollinate
- 10. Multiple ChoiceOriginally, Mendel crossed two true breeding plants (RR x rr) for Round and Wrinkled peas. What is the genotype(s) of the offspring that he then allowed to self-pollinate in the first generation?RR x RrRr x Rrrr x RRrr x Rr
- 11. Multiple ChoiceWhat did Mendel discovery in his second experiment?The recessive trait reappeared!The dominant trait reappeared!The ratio was a 1:4All the offspring were true-breeding
- 12. Multiple ChoiceIf you cross two heterozygous traits (Rr x Rr), as Mendel did in his second experiment, what ratio will you get between offspring with the dominant and recessive phenotypes1:12:13:14:1
- 13. Multiple ChoiceA trait that is expressed over other traits.RecessiveCo-dominantIncomplete DominantDominant
- 14. Multiple ChoiceA trait that is not expressed when a dominant allele is present.RecessiveCo-dominantIncomplete DominantDominant
- 15. Multiple ChoiceThe combination of alleles.DNAPhenotypeGenotypeGenetics
- 16. Multiple ChoiceThe physical or behavioral appearance of a traitPhenotypeDNAGenotypeGenetics
- 17. Multiple ChoiceTwo or more combinations of the same geneGeneGenotypePhenotypeAlleles
