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 |
