dominant allele: has the same effect on the phenotype when it is heterozygous or homozygous
recessive allele: affects the phenotype only when it is homozygous
co-dominant alleles:both affect the phenotype in a heterozygous organism
multiple alleles: most genes have more than one allele
locus: the position of a gene on its chromosome
epistasis:the interaction of different gene loci so one gene locus masks the expression of another
population: a group of individuals of the same species that can interbreed
gene pool: set of genetic information carried by the population
