Study of heredity


- the functional unit of a chromosome which determines specific characteristic by coding for specific protein- each chromosome originate from different parent, may code different traits

Mendel Pea Plant Experiment.

P. White flow P. Purple Flower

75% were purple


25% were white

TRAIT

Variation in the physical appearance of a heritable characteristics

Dominant Trait

Those that are inherited unchanged in a hybridization

Dominant Trait

Those that are inherited unchanged in a hybridization

Recessive Traits

: disappear in the offspring of a hybridization

Alleles

Gene variants that arise by mutation and exist at the same relative locations in homologous chromosomes

Blood type A B O

Phenotype

Phenotype

The observable traits expressed by an organism. Ex Blood Type A or Purple in Flower

Genotype

An organism underlying genetic makeup consisting of both the physically visible and non expressed alleles.


Type A blood alleles AA and Ao



Different possible variation:


Pea plant YY, yy, Yy, yY


But the phenotype would only be white or purplez

Homozygous

Heterozygous

P:homo


F1: hetero


f2: homo or hetero

Mendel's Law: Law of Segregation

: genes must segregate equally into gametes such that offspring have an equal likelihood of inheriting either gene


Eg equally likely to inherit y or Y gene from yY parent

Mendel's Law: Law of Segregation

: genes must segregate equally into gametes such that offspring have an equal likelihood of inheriting either gene


Eg equally likely to inherit y or Y gene from yY parent

Mendels Law: Independent Assortment

Genes do not influence each other with regard to the sorting of alleles in gametes


-every possible combination of alleles for every gene is equally likely to occur

Mendels Law: Law of Dominance

Some alleles are dominant and others recessive, individuals will display the effects of only the dominant allele. Both alleles don't contribute to the phenotype.


Dominant: phenotype is represented of 1-2 for trait are present



Recessive: phenotype is only represented if 2 alleles for trait are present

Incomplete Dominance

One of the alleles appears as a phenotype in the heterozygous, but not the exclusion of the other, which can also be seen

Polygenic Traits

More that 2 alleles and multiple gene work together additively to produce a phenotype eg. Eye color or controlled by 8 genes

Weinberg Equilibrium

Populations allele and genotype frequencies are inherently stable unless effected by evolutionary force. Individuals would look the same and it would be unrelated to whether the alleles were dominate or recessive
