Document Summary
Be able to identify and define the following terms, names and. Homozygous & heterozygous- each mate might have type a blood, a dominant trait, and both signals might be type a( homozygous aa) . The offspring would also have type a blood and be homozygous aa. But, both mates might have type a blood but also have, as a second signal, the recessive gene for type o (heterozygous ao). In this latter case, each mate might send the trait for o. If so, type o would then become the phenotypic blood type for the offspring, even though both parents were phenotypically type a. The genotype for this offspring would be homozygous oo. Palynology - the study of plant pollen, spores and certain microscopic plankton organisms (collectively termed palynomorphs) in both living and fossil form. Enculturation- refers to the transmission of culture from generation to generation.
