Definitions 100 • The field of Biology devoted to understanding how characteristics are transmitted from parents to offspring.
Definitions 100 • Genetics
Definitions 100 • When pollen grains from the male part of the flower are transferred to the female part of the flower
Definitions 100 • Pollination
Definitions 100 • The fertilized egg cell
Definitions 100 • zygote
Definitions 100 • A segment of DNA on a chromosome that controls a particular hereditary trait
Definitions 100 • gene
Definitions 100 • The appearance of an organism due to its genotype
Definitions 100 • phenotype
Definitions 100 • Alternative forms of the same gene
Definitions 100 • alleles
Definitions 100 • Describes a genotype where the two alleles for the gene are different
Definitions 100 • Heterozygous
Definitions 100 • Mendel’s Law that says that during gamete formation, the two parental alleles for a gene separate and go into different gametes
Definitions 100 • The Law of Segregation
Definitions 100 • Type of dominance relationship where the heterozygotes have a phenotype that is intermediate between the homozygous phenotypes
Definitions 100 • Incomplete Dominance
Definitions 100 • A dominantly inherited trait that results in short stature.
Definitions 100 • Achondroplasia
Definitions 100 • Mendel’s Law that states that each gene segregates independently of the other genes in gamete formation
Definitions 100 • The Law of Independent Assortment
Genetics Problems 200 • In pea plants, tall is dominant to short. What is the phenotypic ratio predicted from the following cross? • Tt X tt
Genetics Problems 200 • ½ tall • ½ short • Or 1:1 ratio of tall to short
Genetics Problems 200 • In pea plants, tall is dominant to short. What is the phenotypic ratio predicted from the following cross? • Tt X Tt
Genetics Problems 200 • ¾ tall • ¼ short • Or 3:1 ratio of tall to short
Genetics Problems 200 • In pea plants, tall is dominant to short. What is the genotypic ratio predicted from the following cross? • Tt X Tt
Genetics Problems 200 • ¼ homozygous dominant • ½ heterozygous • ¼ homozygous recessive • Or 1 homo dom: 2 hetero: 1 homo rec
Genetics Problems 300 • In guinea pigs, short hair is dominant to long. You have a momma guinea pig (Ss) and a dadda guinea pig (ss) and you plan on letting them breed until they have 30 babies. • How many of the babies are expected to have long hair?
Genetics Problems 400 • A mama oobley boobley bird who is yellow mates with a papa oobley boobley bird who is blue. Their baby birds have some feathers that are blue and some feathers that are yellow. • What kind of dominance relationship is this?
Genetics Problems 400 • Codominance
Genetics Problems 400 • In fruit flies, normal wing shape (V) is dominant to vestigial (v) and grey body (G) is dominant to black body (g). • You do a cross between the following individuals: • Female: VVGg • Male: Vvgg • What are the possible gametes that can be formed for both the female and the male?
Genetics Problems 400 • Female: VG, Vg • Male: Vg, vg
Genetics Problems 500 • A tomato plant with yellow flowers is crossed with a tomato plant with red flowers. The offspring (F1 generation) all have orange flowers. • What phenotypic ratios do you expect in the F2 generation?
Genetics Problems 500 • ¼ yellow flowers • ½ orange flowers • ¼ red flowers • Or 1 yellow: 2 orange: 1 red
Genetics Problems 500 • In guinea pigs, black hair color (B) is dominant to brown (b). Short hair (S) is dominant to long (s). • What are the phenotypic ratios predicted from the following cross? • BBSs X bbSs
Genetics Problems 500 • ¾ black, short hair • ¼ black, long hair • Or 3 black, short: 1 black, long
Genetics Problems 500 • A man with type A blood marries and woman who is type B. • What are the possible genotypes of their kids?
