Principle of dominance
Mendel's second conclusion, which states that some alleles are dominant and others are recessive
Principle of Segregation
During meiosis, chromosome pairs separate into different gametes such that each of the two alleles for a given trait appears in a different gamete.
Principle of Independent Assortment
Alleles for one charateristic assort or divide up among the gametes during mieosis independently of other alleles for other characteristics
Co-dominance
Situation in which both alleles of a gene contribute to the phenotype of the organism
Incomplete Dominance
Cases in which one allele is not completely dominant over another
