Crosses involving one gene or trait are called monohybrid crosses.

An individual with different genetic information for a trait from each parent is called a hybrid. Hybrid offspring inherit a combination of genetic traits from their parents, resulting in a unique genetic makeup.
A heritable character or genetic character
Reproduction involving two parents is called sexual reproduction, where each parent contributes genetic material to the offspring. This type of reproduction allows for genetic diversity and variation among offspring due to the combination of genetic material from both parents. It also requires the fusion of gametes (sperm and egg) from the two parents to create a new individual.
Crosses involving one gene or trait are called monohybrid crosses.
Passing genetic traits from parents to offspring is called heredity, where offspring inherit genetic information from their parents through the transmission of genes. This process is essential for the continuity and variability of traits within a population.

The production of offspring which involves two adult parents is called 'sexual reproduction'.
Traits or characteristics that an offspring inherits from its parents are known as genetic traits or inherited traits. These traits are determined by the genetic material passed down from the parents to their offspring.
The passing of genetic material from parents to offspring is called heredity. It involves the transmission of genes, or segments of DNA, from the parents to their offspring, which determines an individual's traits and characteristics. This process is essential for maintaining genetic continuity and diversity within a population.
It is called a Punnett square.
The offspring is called a "mutant" if it has a new genetic variation that it did not inherit from either parent. Mutations can arise spontaneously or be caused by environmental factors, and they contribute to genetic diversity within a population.

An individual with different genetic information for a trait from each parent is called a hybrid. Hybrid offspring inherit a combination of genetic traits from their parents, resulting in a unique genetic makeup.
When children are physically conceived by the parents who raised them, they are referred to as biological or natural children. These children share genetic material with their parents, as opposed to adopted children, who are raised by parents but do not share a biological connection. This term highlights the direct genetic relationship between the parents and their offspring.
