Bio Term dominant is Refers to an allele that controls the phenotype even when a different allele is also present, as in a heterozygote. Can also refer to the trait or phenotype produced by a dominant allele. Also known as Mendels law of dominance, based on Gregor Mendels o

Bio Term glucose is (C6H12O6) An important monosaccharide (simple carbohydrate) that acts as a primary energy supply for both plant and animal cells.

Bio Term gene conversion is A meiotic process of directed change in which one allele directs the conversion of a partner allele to its own form. In asci of Ascomycete fungi a 4:4 ratio of alleles is expected after meiosis, yet 6:2 and 5:3 ratios are sometimes observed. A model of recombination, produced by Holliday, suggests that gene conversion may be explained by repair of heteroduplex DNA.
