  14. When you’re done with the traits chart: • Work on Drawing the “senior portrait” for your offspring! Make sure to include every trait, write the offspring’s name, and the name of the parents (you!) • Work on the questions in the packet

  15. Mendelian Genetics MAIN IDEA: Mendel explained how a dominant allele can mask the presence of a recessive allele.

  16. “Father of Genetics” • Gregor Mendel – Austrian monk and plant breeder • Studied inheritance in pea plants • Pea plants – usually self-fertilize, but he cross-pollinated to study traits

  17. Mendel’s work • Pea plants have only 2 forms of each trait • True-breeding plants produce offspring with only one form of each trait – ex: always green seeds • PF1F2

  18. Do Now: • Take out Simple Genetics Problems packet and complete it

  19. Parental (P) Generation • Mendel crossed 2 true-breeding plants with opposite traits. Ex: green seed X yellow seed • (Only monitor one trait at a time – others the same – controlled)

  20. First Filial Generation (f1) • Offspring of P generation • 100% showed only ONE of the parent’s traits. • Ex: yellow seeds X green seeds – produced ALL yellow seeds • Where did the green seeds go?

  21. Second Filial Generation (F2) • Self-pollinated plants from F1 • Results: 6022 yellow seeds and 2001 green seeds • 3:1 ratio • Studied 7 traits total, all with same results

  22. Mendel’s Conclusions • Must be 2 forms of each trait • Each form called an allele – alternative form of one gene • Dominant vs. recessive alleles • Homozygous vs. heterozygous (hybrid) • Genotype vs. phenotype

  23. Law of Segregation • During meiosis, 2 alleles for each trait separate

  24. Answer This! • Parent plants: YY and yy (yellow=dominant, green=recessive) • How do we set up the cross? • What genotype possibilities are there for the offspring? • What are the resulting ratios for genotype and phenotype? • Repeat for the F1 generation.

  25. Law of Independent Assortment • During meiosis and gamete formation, alleles are distributed randomly. • Genes on separate chromosomes sort independently during meiosis.

  26. Do Now • What are Mendel’s 2 laws of genetics? • What is the probability of flipping a coin, and it landing on heads? • What is the probability of flipping 2 coins, and both are heads? • What is the probability of flipping 2 coins, and getting heads & tails in any order?

  27. Example • Alleles in parent cell: TtGg • What are the possible gametes from this parent? • Use FOIL to find out!

  28. FOIL TtGg • F = first  TtGg = TG • O = outer  TtGg = Tg • I = inner  TtGg = tG • L = last  TtGg = tg • Possible gametes: TG, Tg, tG, tg • There’s an equal chance of each gamete combination (1/4 chance)

  29. Monohybrid vs. Dihybrid (Don’t Copy) • Monohybrid – cross only one trait • Dihybrid – cross 2 traits (dihybrids are heterozygous for both traits)

  30. Cross 2 dihybrids • TtGg X TtGg • Set up a 16 box Punnett Square • Write the possible gametes across the top and side • Fill in the offspring • Determine the phenotype ratio

  31. Probability • Punnett squares give PROBABLE (predicted) outcomes • Actual data MAY NOT always match the predicted outcomes

  32. Example • When you flip a coin, what is the chance it will land on heads? • If you flip a coin 10 times in a row, how many times would you predict it to land on heads?

  33. Rules of Probability • A larger sample size will give results more accurate to predicted outcome than a smaller sample. • Ex: Mendel used thousands of plants! Only using a few would not have been as accurate.

  34. Rules of Probability • In determining the probability of 2 independent events occurring at the same time, you multiply the probability of each. • Ex: The probability of a coin landing heads up is ½. The probability of 2 coins landing heads up at the same time is ½ x ½ = ¼.

  35. Rules of Probability • The probability of an event occurring any one of several possible ways is the sum of their individual probabilities.

  36. Rules of Probability • Example: If you flip 2 coins (a nickel and a penny), there is a ¼ chance of the nickel being heads and the penny being tails. There is also a ¼ chance of the opposite. There is a ½ chance (1/4 + ¼) of one coin being heads and one being tails.

  37. Probability Examples • What’s the chance of parents having a girl as opposed to a boy? • If a couple has 2 children, what’s the chance of them both being girls? • What’s the chance of them both being boys?

  38. Probability Examples • If a couple has 3 children, what’s the chance of them all being girls? • If a couple has 2 children, what’s the chance of the oldest being a boy and the youngest being a girl? • What’s the chance of them having a boy and a girl in any order?

  39. Do Now • What is the probability of a couple having a girl? • What is the probability of a couple having 2 girls in a row? • Set up the following Punnett Square: FFTt x Fftt

  40. 10.3: Gene Linkage and Polyploidy MAIN IDEA: Crossing over of linked genes is a source of genetic variation.

  41. Genetic Recombination • When new combinations of genes are made by: • Crossing over • Independent assortment • Occurs during meiosis

  42. Independent Assortment • Number of possible gene combinations = 2n • n = # of chromosome pairs • Ex: how many gene combinations are possible in an organism with 3 gene pairs?

  43. After Fertilization… • Number of possible gene combinations = 2n x2n • How many possible gene combinations are possible in an organism with 3 chromosome pairs AFTER fertilization? • Crossing over increases possibilities even more!

  44. Gene Linkage • Each chromosome has many genes • If genes are close together on one chromosome, they are linked • Linked genes DO NOT segregate independently during meiosis • Separation only happens during crossing over; more likely in far apart genes

  45. Chromosome Map • Shows order of genes on a chromosome • Distance between genes – estimated by how often crossing over occurs between them • More crossing over = farther apart

  46. Figure out the Order

  47. Polyploidy • Cells have one or more extra sets of chromosomes • LETHAL in humans • Seen in some animals (earthworms, goldfish) and flowering plants • Useful to make bigger, stronger food plants (wheat, oats, strawberries)

  48. DO NOW Which of these is NOT equal to the others? • 25% • 1:3 • 1:4 • 1/4
