characteristics parent offspring
genetics are the study of how __________ are transmitted from ________ to __________
gregor mendel
the father of genetics is
peas
what plant did mendel work with
segregation
only one allele for each trait of gamete is the law of
independent assortment
one sister chromatid cannot influence how others line up is the law of
pisum sativum
the species of name of mendel’s garden peas is
purple white
flower color… either _ or _ *
axial terminal
flower position… either _ or _
yellow green
pea color… either _ or _ ***
round wrinkled
pea shape… either _ or _ ***
green yellow
pod color… either _ or _
inflated constricted
pod shape… either _ or _
tall short
height… either _ or _ ***
parent generation p1 f1
P generation is _______ ___________, f1 generation is the offspring of the __ generation, and the f2 generation is the offspring of the __ generation
offspring generation phenotypic traits
why peas??? lots of ________, quick __________ time, and it’s rly easy to identify the ___________ ______, bc theyre all one or the other
allele
an alternative form of a gene is a(n)
dominant
___________ allele: fully expressed in an organism’s appearance
recessive
__________ allele: no noticable effect on the organisms appearance, aka it is masked
red
red flowers are dominant to white, red crossed with white, the offspring are
genotype
an organism’s genetic makeup is a(n)
phenotype
an organism’s traits/physical appearance as a result of its genotype is its
RR rr Rr
using R and r… homozygous dominant is __, homozygous recessive is __, and heterozygous is __ (make sure this one is right bc the grading system might not care ab capital letters!!)
heterozygous gene normal
a carrier is a _________ organism carrying the _____ of a disorder but the carrier is phenotypically _________
monohybrid cross
a cross between individuals involving one pair of contrasting traits
punnett square
a diagram that predicts the genetic outcome of different types of crosses, probability of the outcome
dihybrid cross
a cross between individuals that involves TWO pairs of contrasting traits
dominant recessive 1 2
difference between dominant and recessive alleles… the _________ allele “overrules” the _________ allele. to be expressed, the dominant trait only needs _ allele; however, for the recessive trait to be expressed, _ alleles are necessary
complete incomplete
_________ dominance: when one allele has total dominance over the other, ___________ dominance: when the alleles fall somewhere in the middle of the spectrum of dominance
pink
R is red, R’ is white, what color would an RR’ plant be?
RW
an erminette chicken would be __
codominance
__________ is when 2 alleles both affect the phenotype in separate distinguishable ways
100 1 2 1
BB chicken crossed with WW chicken, for the F1 generation you get __% specked, then the F2 generation is a :: ratio of BB BW WW
okay!
remember erminette chickens (specked) and roan cows (pink) !
I^AI^A I^Ai
A blood is ______ or ___
I^BI^B I^Bi
B blood is _____ or ___
I^AI^B
AB blood is
ii
O blood is
AB
__ blood is a universal acceptor
O
__ blood is a universal donor
+ + + - - -
Positive blood is Rh^Rh^ or Rh^Rh^ and negative blood is only Rh^Rh^
pleiotropy
a property in which a gene has multiple phenotypic effects, such as how sickle cell anemia usually causes multiple symptoms
epistasis
interaction of genes that are not alleles - the expression of one gene is affected by another gene at a different location
polygenic inheritance
when a trait is controlled by 2 or more genes
dominant
for skin color, the more ________ alleles there are, the darker the skin
normal bell
polygenic traits follow a _________ distribution/_____ shaped curve
pedigree
a family tree describing the interrelationships of parents & children across generations
autosomal recessive
cycstic fibros (autosomal recessive/dominant or x lined)
autosomal recessive
tay-sachs disease (autosomal recessive/dominant or x linked)
autosomal codominant
sickle-cell anemia (autosomal something or x linked)
autosomal dominant
huntington’s disease (autosomal recessive/dominant or x linked)
autosomal recessive
phenylketonuria (PKU) (autosomal recessive/dominant or x linked)
x linked recessive
hemophilia (autosomal recessive/dominant or x linked)
cystic fibrosis
what genetic disorder: buildup of mucus in lung
tay-sachs disease
what genetic disorder: lipids accumulate in the brain
sickle cell anemia
what genetic disorder: wrong amino acid in hemoglobin protein, hemoglobin is in the wrong shape, clumps together
huntington’s disease
what genetic disorder: doesn’t show up until youre 30 or 40, involuntary movements, memory problems
phenylketonuria
what genetic disorder: cannot properly break down the amino acid phenylalanine → toxic levels in the blood causing improper development of the brain
hemophilia
what genetic disorder: blood can’t clot, more common in men, bleeding, pain in joints, etc
amniocentesis
a procedure to test a fetus by extracting amniotic fluid from the uterus - checks for genetic disorders/chromosomal abnormalities
chorionic villi sampling
a prodecure in which a narrow tube is inserted into the uterus to take tissue from the placenta
