|
if an individual exhibits an autosomal dominant trait do you know the genotype? why?
|
noo we dont know whether or not she is a carrier of the recessive gene because e dominant gene masks it
|
|
you are completing a genetics study in which two pairs of alleles are followed from the parental generation to the offspring what is your expected phenotypic ratio for these traits in the F1 generation
|
9:3:3:1

|
|
Allele
|
alternative genes for the same characteristic
|
|
Homozygous
|
the same (example AA or XᴮXᴮ)
|
|
Heterozygous
|
diffrent (example Aa or XᴮXᵇ or FᴬFᴮ)
|
|
Genotype
|
the genetic makeup of an organism (what you are example AA)
|
|
Phenotype
|
what you see vs what you are example you are Aa but you see AA because a is recessive
|
|
double factor cross
|
genetics study of 2 pairs of alleles that are followed from the parents to the children
|
|
independent assortment
|
2 or more sets of alleles are involved
|
|
carrier
|
has both the dominant and recessive allele example Aa
|
|
epistasis
|
one set of allels can mask the presence of a diffrent set of alleles
|
|
polygenic inheritance
|
2 or more genes combinde their effects to determine the phenotype
