Presentation Transcript

  1. What is the passing of characteristics from parents to offspring called? Heredity

  2. The science of heredity and the process by which traits are passed from parents to offspring? Genetics

  3. What is the F1 generation? The offspring of the P generation

  4. What are the1st two individuals in a cross known as … P generation

  5. What does a Punnett Square predict? The possible outcomes Of a genetic cross

  6. What are the different versions of a gene called? Alleles

  7. HOMOZYGOUS OR HETEROZYGOUS? DD Ff ff dd FF

  8. Explain what the word heterozygous means “Different” 2 different letters (Dd)

  9. Capt. Jack Sparrow

  10. Capt. Jack Sparrow’s “weird” way in running is a homozygous trait ( r ) that only certain pirates possess. If Jack Sparrow decides to marry another female pirate who is heterozygous for normal running, what would be the genotypes of their potential offspring?

  11. R = red hair r = brown hair If a person has the genotype rr, what is their phenotype and why? Phenotype: brown hair Both recessive alleles Are present so they will Express the recessive trait

  12. “Alleles of different genes separate independently of one another during gamete formation” The Law of Independent Assortment

  13. What does the word phenotype mean? “Physical” Appearance Of a genetic trait

  14. A word that describes when you have two of the same allele… Homozygous

  15. S s S SS Ss Ss SS S

  16. Goblin Shark

  17. In goblin sharks the ability to extend their jaw past their body is dominant. If a heterozygous dominant shark mates with another heterozygous shark, how many of their offspring will not be able to extend their jaws.

  18. What is the law that states that two alleles separate when gametes are formed? The Law of Segregation

  19. N= nine toes n = ten toes What is the genotypic ratio? n n Nn N Nn What is the phenotypic ratio? nn nn n

  20. How could you find the genotype of an individual that is unknown? Test Cross

  21. LyreBird

  22. Mimicking noises is a dominant trait for the Lyrebird. The recessive condition makes it so the bird is not able to mimic any noises.

  23. A mimicking male bird and a non-mimicking female bird are crossed, however you do not know the exact genotype of the mimicking male bird. Show ALL the Punnettsquares which could represent this cross.
