• What is an allele?

  Different version of the same gene
• What is genetic diversity?

  The variety the gene pool of a species
• What is gene Pool?

• What is phenotype?

  Observer characteristics of an organism .

  it gives the idea of diversity of alleles

  different alleles code for different versions of the same characteristic.
• What is genotype?

  Sequence base pairs

  Basis in different alleles different

  Looks at similarities and differences

  Measure the number of has for one characteristic
• Heterozygosity index

  This measures genetic diversity within a species
• What are heterozygotes

  Two different alleles are particular locus on the chromosome
