Genetics I An Introduction
Key Vocabulary: • genetics • Heredity • Genetic traits vs. acquired characteristics (nature) vs. (nurture) (raw talent) (specific skills)
Key VOCAB: • Review • homologs • gene • alleles
Key VOCAB: (New) • genotype • phenotype • heterozygous • homozygous • Law of Dominance • dominant • Recessive • environment
Some human examples read “=“ as “codes for” B= brown eyes b = blue eyes D = dimples d = no dimples F = freckles f = no freckles M = migraines m = no migraines G = near-sighted g = normal vision

Question: What does meiosis have to do with genetics?? Remember: Homologs (matching chromosomes) separate into different gametes…….
Matching genes (alleles) separate into different gametes during meiosis!
Problem:Find all possible gametes for individuals w the following genotypes: • BB • Bb • BbFF • BbMm • FfDdmm • MM
How do you predict the genotypes of the offsprng of any two individuals?? • (What do you do when it’s fourth down & 40?)
Guide for Solving Genetic Problems: • Record genotypes of both parents • Record all possible gametes.(Don’t SKIP this step!!) • Construct a Punnet Box • ANSWER the question asked!
Practice Problem #1: Bill is heterozygous for eye color. Jeannie has blue eyes. What is the probability that their daughter has blue eyes?
Practice Problem #2 Fred is homozygous dominant for eye color and heterozygous for dimples. Wilma has blue eyes and no dimples. What is the probability that Pebbles is both blue-eyed & dimpled.(Show all work)
Practice Problem #3 • Rachel is heterozygous for freckles and has blue eyes. Ross has no freckles and is heterozygous for eye color. What is the probability that their baby will be both blue-eyed and freckled?
