One member of a pair or series of genes that occupies a specific position on a specific chromosome is referred to as?
Allele
Why is a specific region of chromosome 11 referred to as the globin gene cluster?
Due to its relation with formation of globin.
What do you call the physical location of a gene?
The specific term is gene locus. If the exact location is known then there is more specific terminology that refers to the chromosome number whether the locus is on the short (p) or long (q) arm of the chromosome and it's specific location based on band and sub-band location.
What the 2 alleles are that control a specific characteristic?
Chromosome

Describe a gene?
A chromosome.A hereditary unit consisting of a sequence of DNA that occupies a specific location on a chromosome and determines a particular characteristic in an organism. Genes undergo mutation when their DNA sequence changes.For apex it's "A piece of a chromosome."
Are alleles alternative forms?
yep

What is the different between a chromosome and a gene?
A Chromosome is a threadlike linear strand of DNA and associated proteins in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells that carries the genes and functions in the transmission of hereditary information. It is a circular strand of DNA in bacteria that contains the hereditary information necessary for cell life.As appose to a Gene A hereditary unit consisting of a sequence of DNA that occupies a specific location on a chromosome and determines a particular characteristic in an organism. Genes undergo mutation when their DNA sequence changes.

gene (I think...) The units of a chromosome that code for traits are genes.
