Question
 There are two types of pea plants: those that produce round seeds and those that produce wrinkled seeds. A single gene controls which type of seed a pea plant will produce. An experiment shows that pea plants containing an allele for round seeds will always produce round seeds. Based on this information, we can conclude that the allele for round seeds in pea plants is _______.
Solution 1
We can conclude it is dominant since it says that it will "always" produce the round seeds. Dominance always has a great impact of one of the genes. In this example that greater gene is the round seeds in the pea plants.

Question
Heredity is defined as
Solution 1
Heredity is when parents pass their genetic traits to their offspring through asexual or sexual reproduction. For instance, if you are wondering why you look like one or both of your parents, then heredity is the answer.

Question
Identify the relationship between genes and alleles.
Solution 1
 We have two alleles of every gene, located on the same spot on different chromosomes. Alleles is just a version of a gene. 
Question
Identify the relationship between genes and alleles.
Solution 1
The relationship between genes and alleles is a gene is a sequence of DNA while the allele is a version. there are two alleles with every gene. for example gene:hair color there are two alleles 1 from mom and 1from dad so moms allele for hair color would be brown and dads allele for hair color is blonde but they are the same gene
Question
What can be described as alternate forms of a particular gene?
