  1. The study of heredity or the passing of traits from one organism to it’s offspring Genetics! Created by Miss Vellone for Mrs. Cannistraci’s Science

  2. Types of Reproduction Sexual Asexual • RequiresTwoParents • Ideal for changing environmental conditions • Everyone is different because we get traits from both parents, so if conditions would change certain people would still survive. • Requires One Parent • Ideal for when environmental conditions stay the same • Everyone would be a clone of the other, so if conditions changed, no one is different, so no one would survive.

  3. KEY DEFINITIONS!

  4. TRAIT • A characteristic about an organism Acquired Traits – something you learn Inherited Traits-Something you were born with

  5. Gene • Found in the nucleus and determine the traits

  6. AlleleFound in the genes and are written in pairs Dominant • the more POWERFUL allele • Written in CAPITAL LETTERS!....AA Recessive • the weaker or masked allele • Written in lower case letters!.... aa

  7. Ph Geno physical genetic enotype type • Describes traits that you see. • The makeup Genotypes are genes that are not seen; they are represented by CAPITAL and lowercase letters • Heterozygous- the alleles are different • Aa • Homozygous- the alleles are the same • AA or aa

  8. Offspring • The Baby!

  9. PUNNETT SQUARES! Parents= Homozygous Dominant x Homozygous Recessive B= Brown Hair b= Blonde Hair BB X bb b b Brown= 100% Blonde= 0% B Bb Bb B Bb Bb Predict the traits of offspring

  10. Punnett Squares Practice! Heterozygous x Homozygous Dominant Aa x AA A= No Freckles a= Freckles A A No Freckles= 100% Freckles= 0% AA A AA a Aa Aa

  11. Two Homozygous Recessive Cross B= Brown Fur b= Red Fur bb x bb b b Brown Fur= 0% Red Fur= 100% bb bb b bb bb b

  12. Two Heterozygous Cross B= Brown Eyes b= Blue Eyes Bb x Bb What are the % Phenotype= B b Brown Eyes= 75% Blue Eyes= 25% BB Bb B What is the ratio? 3:1 What are the % Geneotype= b Bb bb BB= 25% Bb= 50% bb= 25% What is the ratio? 1:2:1

  13. Heterozygous Cross Homozygous Recessive B= Black Fur b= White Fur Bb X bb b b What are the % Phenotype= Black Fur= 50% White Fur= 50% B Bb Bb What is the ratio? 1:1 What are the % Geneotype= b bb bb Bb=50% bb= 50% What is the ratio? 1:1
