and the genetic material of a zygote in organisms that
reproduce by sexual means.
|
 |
Explain
how crossing over in prophase 1 of meiosis, independent
assortment of chromosomes in meiosis 1, and fertilization
each contribute to genetic diversity.

 |
Monohybrid
Crosses
 |
Know
and be able to use the basic terms in Medelian genetics.
This is objective 12 in Unit 5. You must understand
each of these terms in order to work genetics problems.

Work
a problem that illustrates a monohybrid cross. This
is developed in objective 13 in Unit 5.
