Alleles: Different forms of a gene that occupy the same locus on a chromosome.

Autosome: A chromosome that is not a sex chromosome.

Carrier: An individual who carries a recessive allele but does not express the corresponding trait.

Karyotype: A complete set of chromosomes in a cell, arranged in pairs.

Chromosome: A thread-like structure in the nucleus that carries genes.

Dominance: The masking of one allele by another in a heterozygous individual.

Gene: A segment of DNA that encodes a specific protein or RNA molecule.

Genome: The complete set of genetic material in an organism.

Genotype: The genetic makeup of an individual, consisting of the alleles they inherit from their parents.

Heterozygous: Having two different alleles for a specific gene.

Homozygous: Having two identical alleles for a specific gene.

Locus: The specific location of a gene on a chromosome.

Mutation: A change in the DNA sequence.

Phenotype: The observable traits of an individual, which are influenced by both genetic and environmental factors.

Recessive: An allele that is only expressed when homozygous.

Sex chromosome: A chromosome that determines the sex of an individual (X or Y in humans).

Trait: A specific characteristic of an individual, such as eye color or blood type.

Transcription: The process by which DNA is used to create an RNA molecule.
