1. genetics -the branch of biology that focuses on heredity 2. true breeding -one form of trait is shown after several generations of self-pollination 3. parental generation (P1) -first two individuals that are crossed in a breeding experiment 4. first filial generation (F1)- the offspring of the P1 generation 5. second filial generation (F2 )-the offspring of the F1 generation after self pollination 6. homozygous -the two alleles that are present for a particular gene are the same 7. heterozygous -when the two alleles are different 8. genotype -the set of alleles an individual has 9. phenotype -the physical appearance of the trait 10. law of segregation - the two alleles for a trait separate during gamete formation
