Pattern Of Inheritance Review
Define the Following • Gene • Alleles • Locus • Homozygous • Heterozygous • Dominant • Recessive • Phenotype • Genotype • Monohybrid cros
Definition • A. gene - the unit of heredity; a section of DNA sequence encoding a single proteinB. alleles - two genes that occupy the same position on homologous chromosomes and cover the same traitC. locus - a fixed location on a strand of DNA where a gene or one of its alleles is locatedD. homozygous - having identical genes (one from each parent) for a particular characteristicE. heterozygous - having two different genes for a particular characteristicF. dominant - the trait that appears in the heterozygous condition G. recessive - the trait that is masked in the heterozygous condition H. phenotype - appearanceI. genotype - genetic makeupJ. monohybrid cross - cross involving a single pair of genes, one trait

Hint: Think of a test cross • Tongue rolling (the ability to roll your tongue) is a dominant trait in humans. A woman who CAN roll her tongue is married to a man who CANNOT roll his tongue. They have four children, only two of whom CAN roll their tongues. Which of the following describes the genotypes of the parents (woman x man)? (1 point) a) Rrx rr • B) RR x rr • C) Rr x RR • D) Rrx Rr

- • In Australian Shepherds (a breed of dog), black fur (FB) is codominant with white fur (FW). The heterozygous phenotype is spotted fur--both black and white.

Practice Genetics Problems • Solve the genetics problems in the following slides based on the concepts of monohybrid cross, dihybrid cross, incomplete dominance, multiple alleles, sex-linked inheritance, autosomal dominant and recessive inheritance.
Genetic Problems • Most individuals of a certain wild flower have white petals, but a few are blue. Crosses have shown that the blue color is due to a recessive allele. Use "W" for white and "w" for blue. • a. What is the genotype of a blue-flowered plant and what gametes would it produce as a result of meiosis?d. If a blue-flowered plant is crossed with its white-flowered parent, what fraction of their offspring would have the genotype "ww"? • e. If two blue-flowered plants cross, what fraction of their offspring will be blue? White?
Incomplete Dominance • Four o'clocks exhibit incomplete dominance. Thus, if a plant with red flowers is crossed with a plant with white flowers, the offspring will all produce pink flowers. • What offspring would you expect if you crossed a red-flowered plant with a pink-flowered plant?
Dihybrid Cross • In peas, the gene for tall plants (T) is dominant over the gene for dwarf plants (t) and round seed (R) is dominant over wrinkled seed (r). If one crosses a homozygous tall, wrinkled-seeded plant with a homozygous dwarf, round-seeded plant, what is the phenotype of the F1? The genotype of the F1? The phenotypic ratio of the F2?
