Full list of words from this list:

  1. ribose
    a pentose sugar important as a component of ribonucleic acid
    However, the ribose sugar component of RNA is slightly different chemically than that of DNA. RNA has a 2' oxygen atom that is not present in DNA. Other fundamental structural differences exist.
  2. recessive allele
    an allele that produces its characteristic phenotype only when its paired allele is identical
    On the other hand, a recessive allele will be expressed only if there are two identical copies of that allele, or for a male, if one copy is present on the X chromosome.
  3. X-linked
    relating to genes or characteristics or conditions carried on the X chromosome
    Both men and women can have X-linked traits because both inherit X chromosomes.
  4. X chromosome
    the sex chromosome that is present in both sexes: singly in males and doubly in females
    On the other hand, a recessive allele will be expressed only if there are two identical copies of that allele, or for a male, if one copy is present on the X chromosome.
