a symbiotic relationship in which the symbiont actually lives inside the host
8/53
inheritance of characters transmitted through extranuclear elements (as mitochondrial DNA) in the cytoplasm of the egg
9/53
the inheritance pattern of the Mic2 gene is the same as the inheritance pattern of a gene located on autosome even though the Mic2 gene is actually located on the sex chromosomes
10/53
is an evolutionary theory that explains the origin of eukaryotic cells from prokaryotes
11/53
a condition in which phenotype is intermediate between the corresponding homozygoes individuals
12/53
that has the potential to cause the death
13/53
how the allelic variants of two different genes affect a single trait
14/53
small colonies of mutants
15/53
when the gene function is abolished by creating an organism that is homozygous for a loss-of-function allele
16/53
Monoallelic expression
17/53
how the allelic variants of two different genes affect a single trait

the presence of more than one type of organellar genome within a cell or individual
21/53
certain lethal alleles which act only in some individuals
22/53
when heterozygote has a greater reproductive success compared to either corresponding homozygotes
23/53
the genetic material that is found in mitochondria. Mitochondria are structures that convey the energy from food into a form that cells can use
24/53
it effects the choice of the X chromosome to be inactivated
25/53
the mechanism of X inactivation
26/53
compensation by random X-inactivation, of the dosage of gene material in the cells of males and females carrying X-linked genes
27/53
when two alleles are both expressed in the heterozygous individual
29/53
multiple effects of a single gene on the phenotype of an organism
30/53
inheritanace pattern which involves genes that are not located in the cell nucleus
31/53
a pattern in which the genotype of the mother directly determines the phenotype of her offspring (an inheritance pattern for certain nuclear genes)
32/53
the attachement of a methyl group onto a cytosine base – is a common way that eukaryotic genes may be regulated
34/53
the epigenetic phenomenon by which certain genes are expressed in a parent-of-origin-specific manner. If the allele inherited from the father is imprinted, it is thereby silenced, and only the allele from the mother is expressed.
35/53
Gene modifier affect
36/53
X-inactivation (also called lyonization) is a process by which one of the two copies of the X chromosome present in female mammals is inactivated
37/53
in each somatic cell of a normal female, one of the X chromosomes is randomly deactivated. This deactivated X chromosome can be seen as a small, dark-staining structure in the cell nucleus
38/53
the age when the symptoms of the disease appear
39/53
the trait occurs in only one of the two sexes
40/53
region that is located near the imprinted gene
41/53
alleles which may kill the organism only when certain environmental conditions prevail
42/53
a pattern in which a modification occurs to a nuclear gene or chromosome that alters gene expression, but is not permanent over the course of many generations
44/53
a second mutation that reverses the phenotypic effects of a first mutation
45/53
the allele causing the disease is recessive and located on the x chromosome
46/53
the copies which are not identical due to the accumulation of random changes during evolution
47/53
organelle where genetic material of mitochondria and chloroplasts is located
48/53
an allele is dominant in one sex but recessive in the opossite sex
49/53
when one of the two x chromosomes is turned off
