Gregor Mendel
-Discovered the basic principles of heredity
-by breeding garden peas in carefully planned experiments
-Studied 7 different pea plants characteristics
-seed shape, color, coat color, pod shape, pod color, flower position, and plant height
Dominant means
-Trait that will appear when it shows allies
-father gene
-any upper case letter (N)
Recessive means
-Trait that is hidden in pesents of the dominant
Homozygous
refers to a trait with 2 copies that had same allies
(homo) man/man
Heterozygous
2 diffrent allies
Dom copy and Recessive copy
(hetero)
(man/woman)
Punnet Square
diagram for predicting the results of a genetic cross between individuals of known genetic makeup
Genotype
(Tt)
Law of segregation
two allies for a heritable character separate (segregate) during gamete formation and end up in diffrent gametes
Law of independent Assortment
Dr
Complete dominance
occurs when phenotypes of the heterozygote and dominant homozygote are identical (this is what mendal was talking about)
Codominance
two dominant alleles affect the phenotype in separate, distinguishable ways
Pedigree Chart
family tree that describes the interrelationships of parents and children across generations
Polygentic inheritance
traits that are controlled by two or more genes
shows a wide range of phenotypes
Carries
are Heterozygous individuals who carry the recessive allies but are phentypically normal
True Breeding
purebred, produced from the same ancestral line, offspring and parents have identical traits
Hybrid
produced by breeding parents of opposite traits, offspring and both parents will not be identical
Monohybrid
studying one Trait or one gene
exp crossing Pp x pp
Dihybrid
exp PpYy x ppyy
independent assortment
2 diffrent genes
Test Cross
Pp or PP how to figure out the genotype
Allies
humans have 2 allies
incomplete dominant
a mixture of the allies in the genotype is seen in the phenotype
exp: black + white = grey
