Complex Traits / Evolutionary Theory - Call List

(Print) Use this randomly generated list as your call list when playing the game. Place some kind of mark (like an X, a checkmark, a dot, tally mark, etc) on each cell as you announce it, to keep track. You can also cut out each item, place them in a bag and pull words from the bag.

  1. O-example of a somewhat additive human trait
  2. N-systematic differential reproductive contribution among genotypes due to the genotypes’ effect on survival or fertility
  3. N-rate at which drift occurs is inversely proportional to population size
  4. B-two eggs (ova) are fertilized by two sperm and produce two genetically unique children
  5. N-quantitative changes in allele frequencies over time
  6. G-heritable but not readily predictable form pedigree
  7. G-drift effect on allele frequencies when a population originates via a smaller number of people from a larger population
  8. I-express the trait if have two copies of the associated genetic variant
  9. I-one fertilized egg (ovum) splits and develops into two babies with exactly the same genetic information
  10. B-50% of the sons of a female carrier expected to have the trait
  11. G-results in the removal of new mutations are harmful to fitness
  12. O-heterozygous individuals are “carriers”
  13. B-allele that does not affect the reproductive fitness of individuals who carry the allele
  14. O-movement of alleles from one population into another through interbreeding
  15. I-proportion of observable differences in a trait between individuals in a population that is due to genetic differences
  16. G-“Mendelian” inheritance pattern, dominant, recessive, or additive
  17. N-set of all genomes in a specified population
  18. B-favors an allele that is beneficial tp individuals in a given environment
  19. B-heterozygous individuals have intermediate phenotype
  20. O-when selection favors heterogeneous over homozygous individuals
  21. I-the ultimate source of all new variation
  22. G-quantify trait concordance between a pair of twins
  23. I-all daughters of a male with the trait will have the trait
  24. O-chance (random) element in reproduction, whose impact depends on population structure and luck
