Explain • The Story of Mendel The Gene Idea
Mendel and Genetics • Using your handout, answer the questions as we explain the concepts surrounding basic genetic
Terms to Know • Character (heritable feature, i.e., fur color) • Trait (variant for a character, i.e., brown) • P generation (parents) • F1 generation (first filial generation)
Terms to Know • Punnett square: • Gene: point on a chromosome that controls the trait • Allele: an alternate form of a gene A or a • Homozygous: identical alleles for a character • Heterozygous (Hybrid): different alleles for a gene • Phenotype: physical traits • Genotype: genetic makeup
It All Began with Mendel (FYI) • Gregor Mendel was born in 1822. • Called the “Father of Genetics” • Late 1800 chromosomes and the process of meiosis were unknown. • Mendel’s work was considered obscure and unimportant until 1900 • Walter Sutton proposed the Chromosome Theory and people began to listen to his ideas. • Chromosome Theory – specific genes are located on specific chromosomes
Three Conclusions to His Research • Principle of Dominance and Recessiveness One allele in a pair may mask the effect of the other • Principle of Segregation The two alleles for a characteristic separate during the formation of eggs and sperm • Principle of Independent Assortment The alleles for different characteristics are distributed to reproductive cells independently.
