STARTER • Each pairwill be given a card with a key term on it • As a pair you have to come up with a definition AND an illustration and write it onto the card • Have the card checked • Staple it to the Genetics Word Wall
Multiple Alleles In traits with multiple alleles, each individual can carry any two of the several possible alleles. Ex. BLOOD TYPE The gene for blood type has 3 possible alleles.
Blood Group Genes • There is 1 gene for blood type • There are 3 alleles for blood type: A, B, & i (O). • A&B are codominant and both dominant to i (O).
The ABO blood system Note: • Blood types A and B have two possible genotypes – homozygous and heterozygous. • Blood types AB and O only have one genotype each.

Group Practice Problem: 1. A mother is IA IB and a father is ii. Draw the punnett square. IAIB i i What is the probability their offspring will have A type blood? Can they have an offspring with O blood?

STARTER • A woman has a heterozygous genotype for blood group B. She is expecting a baby with a man who is homozygous Group A. What are the possible blood groups for their baby? I. Group O II. Group A III.GroupAB A. II and III only B. I and II only C. I and III only D. I, II and III
Rh Factors • Scientists sometimes study Rhesusmonkeys to learn more about the human anatomy. • While studying Rhesus monkeys, a certain blood protein was discovered. • This protein is also present in the blood of some people. Other people, however, do not have the protein. • The presence of the protein, or lack of it, is referred to as the Rh (for Rhesus) factor. • If your blood does contain the protein, your blood is said to be Rh positive (Rh+). • If your blood does not contain the protein, your blood is said to be Rh negative (Rh-).
