  1. AP EXAM REVIEW SESSION IIIMOLECULAR GENETICSBe prepared, not scared!  • Gene Expression

  2. But first . . . A Quick Visit to Mendelian Genetics . . .  • Paula and Bernie have a child named Liz. Paula is A – and Liz is B +. What are the possible blood phenotypes for Bernie? Genotypes for all? • Coat color is Labrador retrievers is controlled by the inheritance and interaction of two genes. Black color is dominant to chocolate, but yellow Labrador retrievers will be produced if a second dominant gene allowing the ability to express pigment is not inherited. Two black Labrador retrievers, heterozygous at both loci, are mated. What is the chance that they will produce yellow offspring? • Two carriers for cystic fibrosis have 3 children together, none of whom has cystic fibrosis. What is the probability their 4th child will be born with cystic fibrosis? • Two diploid organisms, one heterozygous for 4 genes and one homozygous dominant for 4 genes, sexually reproduce. What is the probability the offspring is heterozygous at every locus?
