3. Genetics is the study of _____________________.

B. Gregor Mendel----The ____________________ of Genetics

1. Mendel was a monk that studied traits in _______________________________ plants. Some of the traits were seed shape, flower color and plant height.

2. Mendel discovered basic _______________, _________________ and ________________of heredity.

3. Mendel discovered two RULES:

a. Rule of Unit Factors—each organism has _________________ that control _______________.

One of the genes comes from the _______________ and the other one from the ____________.

Another way to say this is that _______________of your genes come from ___________ parent.

b. Rule of Dominance—there are some genes that are _______________ and other genes that are

___________________. The dominant gene ___________________ the recessive gene when the

_________________________________________. For example, T represents the dominant

gene for a tall pea plant and t represents the recessive gene for a short pea plant. TT and Tt will

be ______________ plants. tt will be a _________________ plant

4. Mendel discovered two LAWS:

a. Law of ______________________—every individual has two genes for each trait (rule of unit

factor) and when sperm and eggs are formed they contain only _________________ of the genes

b. Law of ________________________—different trait is inherited __________________.

C. Definitions #2

1. Gametes are female and male ____________ _____________ (eggs and sperms) created by cell reproduction called ___________________.

2. Fertilization is when the egg and sperm __________________, or fuses together to form a fertilized egg called a _________________________.

3. Pollination is the same as fertilization but it happens in _____________________. Pollen has the ____________ inside of it.

4. Alleles- _____________________________ of a gene for a trait. (the letters we use to represent genes).

Example--either Tall (T) or short (t).

Another example-- either Tall (T) or short (t)

i. Dominant- the trait that takes over or _________________ the recessive trait. (T)

ii. Recessive- a trait that _________________________ by the dominant trait (t)

iii. Heterozygous or _____________ or _____________- when a person has two ____________ alleles, Tt.

iv. Homozygous or __________________- when a person has two of the ____________alleles, TT or tt.

---TT is the homozygous _________________________ trait

---tt is the homozygous _____________________________ trait.

v. Genotype- the ________ or letters (genes) a person has (TT, Tt, tt) [genotype=__________]

vi. Phenotype- the ___________ trait a person has ex. Tall or short [phenotype=___________]

PART 2 GENETICS NOTES—CH 10-13

D. Patterns of Inheritance

1. Simple recessive traits—result from having 2 recessive genes from each parent. Recessive alleles are usually represented by lower case letters (example rr or gg)

a. Example ( a recessive disorder)—Cystic fibrosis

i. Most commonly found in ______________________

ii. It caused by a ____________________ protein in the plasma membrane

iv. It is treated with ____________________, _________________________ & _________________________

b. Example ( a recessive disorder)—Tay-Sachs

i. Most commonly found in ______________________ whose ancestors are from eastern ___________________.

ii. It caused by a missing _________________ (protein) that breaks down a certain lipid

iii. The result is a build up of ____________________in the brain and spinal cord (aka central nervous system), which causes damage.

c. Example ( a recessive disorder)—Phenylketonuria (PKU)

i. Most commonly found in Americans whose ancestors are from ________________, ____________________ or _____________________.

ii. It caused by a missing _________________ (protein) that converts phenylalanine to tyrosine.

iii. The result is a build up of _____________________ which damages the brain and spinal cord (aka __________________ __________________ _______________)

iv. It is treated with a _______________ _________________ that is low in phenylalanine.

2. Simple Dominant traits—result from inheriting a dominant genes from one or both of the parents. Dominant traits are usually represented by uppercase letters. Dominates show up in the homozygous dominant (TT) and the heterozygous individual (Tt).

a. _____________ chin

b. Widow’s __________________ (an eddy)

c. ___________________ earlobes

d. ____________________ thumb

e. ____________________________ Disease—this is a lethal disease (which means it kills you) that causes a breakdown in certain parts of the ___________.

3. Incomplete dominance—the genes of _____________parents ____________to form a __________ color in the offspring. For example, one plant with red flowers is crossed with a plant with white flowers, the results are seeds that produces plants with _______________flowers.

4. Codominanace—the genes of ________________ parents _____________________ in the offspring. For example, one plant with red flowers is crossed with a plant with white flowers, the results are seeds that produces plants with ________________ & ________________ flowers. Another example sickle cell anemia

Sickle Cell Anemia is an example of a codominant disease.

It is more common in people of _________________ and _________________________ ancestry.

It protects someone from ____________________. It can cause severe pain.

The blood cells are _____________________-shaped.

You can be normal (NN), a carrier (NS) or have sickle cell (SS).

If you are a carrier you have both normal and sickle blood cells.

5. SeX-linked traits—traits _______________ by genes on the ____________________ chromosomes. Most sex-linked traits happen more often in ____________________.

Examples ________________________________________ in fruit flies (Drysophila).

________________________ and __________________________ colorblindness in humans.

6. Gender---- _____ = female ________=male Males determines the gender of the offspring

7. Polygenic inheritance=some traits are controlled by _____________________________ genes on ___________________ chromosomes. Because it is controlled by several genes, there is more variety, or variation in the trait.

Examples are skin color and height.

PART 3 GENETICS NOTES—CH 10-13

E. Definitions #3

1. Multiple alleles—having different _______________________ for a trait. For example, human hair can be black, brown, red or blond.

-Another example, pigeons can different colored feathers; ash-red, blue or chocolate colored.

-Another example is blood type. IA= allele for A IB=allele for B i=allele for O

a. **There are FOUR blood types:

Phenotype Genotype

i. Type A- Type A can have genotype ______ or ______

ii. Type B- Type B can have genotype _______ or ______

iii. Type AB- Type AB has genotype ________ or ________

iv. Type O- Type O has genotype ______

b. **O is the recessive blood type to A and B

c. **A and B are codominant to each other.

d. **The A and B represent proteins on the blood cell.

Do this Practice example & complete the Punnetts square

1. Cross an individual that is heterozygous for type A blood and an individual that is heterozygous for type B

blood.

2. An individual with type O blood mates with an individual that is homozygous for type B blood.

1. 2.

2. Karyotype is a picture of someone’s chromosomes and is used to identify some genetic diseases like Down’s Syndrome.

3. Down’s Syndrome- this is genetic disorder is caused by nondisjunction.

The person has three 21 chromosomes and so a total of 47 chromosomes. ( the normal number of

human chromosomes is 46 chromosomes)

It can also be called trisomy 21. This person has a low IQ.

4. Amniocentesis is when you take fluid from a pregnant woman and do a karyotype to determine if the unborn baby has a genetic disease.

F. How do we predict inheritance or show patterns of inheritance

1. Use Punnetts square

2. Use Pedigree (family tree)----A pedigree is a family tree to show how a family inherits their trait.

A. How do you read a pedigree?

i. A ____________ represents is a female.

ii. A _______________ represents a male.

iii. A “T-shaped line” represents a male and female that had children together (parents).

The “T” touches the SIDE of the square and circle

parents

siblings

The “ -shaped line” represents siblings.

This “ -shaped line” touches the TOP of the square and circle.

iv. If the circle or square is ________________ ( or ), then that female or male the trait or disease.

v. Heterozygous individuals ( aka ____________ or ______________) be a _________-colored

OR uncolored .

vi. P generation= parents

F1 generation= kids

F2 generation= grandkids

vii. Activity------

B. Figuring out the Types of inheritance patterns

i. If the trait is in every generation then it is a __________________________ TRAIT.

ii. If the trait is in only a __________ people and its in MALES & FEMALES then it is a

___________________ trait.

iii. It is in only a ________ people and they are mostly boys then it is

_____________________ recessive trait.
