Match the following terms and definitions. ? 1.the breeding of two organisms that have genes for two different characteristics ? 2. separation of dna's two polynucleotide chains, which act as a template for a new chain ? 3.when more than two alternatives for a gene exist ? 4.a copying mistake made during dna replication ? 5.when both genes are dominant and both are expressed in the phenotype replication mutation codominance multiple alleles dihybrid cross

Statement 1 - dihybrid cross, statement 2 - replication,

statement 3 - multiple alleles, statement 4 - mutation,

statement 5 - codominance.

Explanation:

Dihybrid cross is a term used when two organisms breed, have two genes for two different characters or trait.

Statement 1 - dihybrid cross

DNA polypeptide chains separate and each one of them acts as the template for forming new chain is, the process is DNA replication.

statement 2 - replication

If a gene has more than two alleles for a particular trait this condition is known as multiple alleles.

statement 3 - multiple alleles

A mutation is a mistake or error during DNA replication, it can be during reading or copying.

statement 4 - mutation

If a gene has two alleles and both alleles show their effect in the phenotypes.

statement 5 - codominance.

if you listed your answers right then i believe your answer is b.
