P generation is...

Parent generation

F1 Generation is.....

Offspring of regeneration

F2 generation is....

Offspring of F1 Generation

Difference between dominant and recessive allele?

Dominant- is always expressed, even when paired with recessive allele



Recessive- only expresses when both alleles are present

What is homozygous?

Having 2 of the same alleles;



either 2 dominant or 2 recessive

Pure/true= heterozygous

Homozygous example?

In proplants, tall is dominant to short.



Homozygous....


●Dominant (TT)


●Recessive (tt)

What is heterozygous? Example?

Having one dominant and one recessive allele



Ex: heterozygous (Tt)

Hybrid= heterozygous

Difference between phenotype and genotype

Phenotype= physical characteristics (ex: tall or short)


Genotype= genetic makeup


(Ex: TT, Tt, tt)

Punnett Square is...

a tool to understand patterns of heredity

Sexual Reproduction

a cell containing genetic info from mom and dad to form a new cell; offspring

Test cross is used for

determining the genotype of a phenotypically dominant individual

test cross is

a cross b/w an organism of unknown genotype (dominant) and a homozygous recessive individual

What is incomplete dominance?

When neither allele is completely dominant over the other

Hybrid means...

Heterozygous

In incomplete dominance, the hybrid is _______ b/w the 2 _________of the parents

Intermediate, phenotypes

What is codominance?

When both alleles are fully expressed in hybrid

Ex of codominance

Human blood type AB, animals and Roan color

Definition for multiple alleles

A gene that is controlled by more than 2 alleles



(Ex: blood typing in humans)

In multiple alleles, different alleles will exist in the population but any identical will have ___

2

What is order of dominance

When each allele is dominant to all alleles that follow it

Which chromosome pair has the Sex of the individual determined?

23rd pair

Why do X linked traits show up more in males than females?

Because males only have 1 X chromosome

Are genes for certain traits carried on the Y chromosome?

No

What is epistasis?

A condition where one gene affects the phenotype expression of another gene.

Example of epistasis?

Coat color in dogs;


Gene 1 (blue/black B/b)


Gene 2 (allows/inhibits pigment formation E/e)

Polygenic inheritance?

When more than one gene controls a trait

Polygenes?

They are the genes involved in polygenic inheritance

Polygenic inheritance example?

Skin pigmentation: on a spectrum


AABBCC (max pigmentation)


aabbcc (min pigmentation)

Depending on how many dominant alleles an individual has, they will be on the _____ of spectrum, while recessive will be on the ______

Left, right

Gene linkage

When 2 or more genes are on the same chromosome

Why would genes "tend" to stay together during gamete formation

Due to crossing over, they may be separated

Crossing over is likely to happen with genes that are _________

Further apart

What are recombinant

When genotypes differ from parents cross over

Recombinant types

When chromosomes of F1 Generation have different combinations then the P generation

What is recombination frequency? Related to?

Percentage of times a cross over occurred. It's related to the distance between genes on a chromosomes.


What is chromosome mapping

It's used to determine a relative position of genes in a chromosome

What are pedigrees

Type of flow chart that uses symbols to show the pattern of relationships and traits in a family over many generations

Pedigrees are used to figure out....

The pattern (mode) of inheritance

When unaffected parents have an affected child, then the parent genotypes are __________ and the mode of inheritance is ___________.

Heterozygous; recessive

In pedigrees, when the trait is autosomal, then there's ________between genders in the ______________.

No significance; frequency of the phenotype expression

If a trait shows up more frequently in males, then it's most likely

Sex linked

If a trait seems to skip generations, it's most likely....

Recessive

If a trait shows up in every generation, then it's most likely....

Dominant

Mode of inheritance: recessive



Assign all affected individuals with....

A homozygous recessive genotype (ex aa)

Mode of inheritance: recessive


Assign all unaffected individuals with....

One dominant allele

(recessive) When assigning an allele to an unaffected individual, will there be unknown?

Yes

Mode of inheritance: dominant



Assign all unaffected individuals a....

Homozygous recessive genotype

(dominant mode of inheritance)


Assign all affected individuals with ......

One dominant allele (Aa, A__)
