Brown and black genes are examples of a(n) __________. - -Alleles Cells that have the same allele are called ________________. - -homozygous Cells with different alleles are called _______________. - -heterozygous A cell that has two different alleles of the same gene is called __________. - -heterozygous How many cells are present after meiosis I? - -2 How many gametes does a diploid cell make during meiosis? - -four haploid cells A pattern of inheritance in which two alleles, inherited from the parents, are neither dominant nor recessive. The resulting offspring have a phenotype that is a blending of the parental traits. This is called..... - -incomplete dominance What are the possible genotypes for someone with type A blood? - -AA and AO What are the possible gametes people with type AB blood could produce? - -A or B If two homozygous individuals mate, one with type A blood and one with type B blood, what are the possible genotypes of the offspring? - -AB If two heterozygous individuals mate, one with type A blood and one with type B blood, what are the possible genotypes of the offspring? - -AB, AO, BO, or OO A man who is heterozygous for type B blood mates with a woman with type O blood. The baby has type B blood. What is the baby's genotype? - -BO Eye color in humans has a range of colors (shades of blue, green, brown, and combinations of these). Eye color is likely following a pattern of __________. - -polygenic inheri
