Austrian monk who studied mathematics and science

As a boy he could predict the possible types of flowers and fruits that would result from crossbreeding two plants in his father’s garden

Curiosity about the connection between the color of a pea flower and the type of seed that same plant produced inspired him to begin experimenting with garden peas in 1856.

Made careful use of scientific methods, which resulted in the first recorded study of how traits pass from one generation to the next.

The study of how traits are inherited through the interactions of genes.

The material that controls which traits are expressed in an organism

Genes come in pairs and offspring inherit one copy of each gene from each parent

Page 11: Explain how genes are responsible for certain traits that we acquire from our parents?  In complete sentences, explain meiosis and explain its role.

Heredity Allele Trait

Page 12: Explain how genes are responsible for certain traits that we acquire from our parents?  In complete sentences, explain meiosis and explain its role.

The passing of traits from parent to offspring

Page 13: Explain how genes are responsible for certain traits that we acquire from our parents?  In complete sentences, explain meiosis and explain its role.

The different forms of a trait that a gene may have

One form of a gene

Page 14: Explain how genes are responsible for certain traits that we acquire from our parents?  In complete sentences, explain meiosis and explain its role.

Ways of looking, thinking, or being

Traits that are genetic are passed down through the genes from parents to offspring

Page 16: Explain how genes are responsible for certain traits that we acquire from our parents?  In complete sentences, explain meiosis and explain its role.

A trait that is covered over, or dominated, by another form of that trait and seems to disappear

Hidden when the other copy of the gene contains the dominant allele.

A recessive allele shows up only when there is no dominant allele present

Page 18: Explain how genes are responsible for certain traits that we acquire from our parents?  In complete sentences, explain meiosis and explain its role.

Both alleles [forms of the gene] are the same

When offspring inherit two dominant genes, (one dominant gene from each parent) they are said to be homozygous dominant

When offspring inherit two recessive genes, (one recessive gene from each parent) they are said to be homozygous recessive

Page 20: Explain how genes are responsible for certain traits that we acquire from our parents?  In complete sentences, explain meiosis and explain its role.

When alleles occur in different forms

When offspring inherit one dominant gene and one recessive gene, they are said to be heterozygous

Since the dominant gene will be expressed, they are said to be heterozygous dominant

When an organism has two different alleles for a gene that does not follow the dominant/recessive pattern

The organism shows a trait that is a blend of the traits represented by the two alleles

Also called INCOMPLETE DOMINANCE

Page 23: Explain how genes are responsible for certain traits that we acquire from our parents?  In complete sentences, explain meiosis and explain its role.

For example:

The gene for the color of some flowers has one allele for red and one for white. When both alleles are present, neither is dominant, and the flower color is pink

Page 25: Explain how genes are responsible for certain traits that we acquire from our parents?  In complete sentences, explain meiosis and explain its role.

A trait that covers over, or dominates, another form of that trait

Trait that always shows up, even when only one of the two alleles is in the dominant form

Shown by a capital letter

A tool to predict the probability of certain traits in offspring that shows the different ways alleles can combine

A way to show phenotype & genotype

A chart that shows all the possible combinations of alleles that can result when genes are crossed

Page 32: Explain how genes are responsible for certain traits that we acquire from our parents?  In complete sentences, explain meiosis and explain its role.

Letters stand for dominant and recessive alleles

An uppercase letter stands for a dominant allele

Lowercase letters stand for recessive alleles

Now you need two parents to mate, ones with a known genotype

For example, a red flower (genotype Rr) and a white flower (genotype rr). Rr x rr

Page 35: Explain how genes are responsible for certain traits that we acquire from our parents?  In complete sentences, explain meiosis and explain its role.

Place one of the parents on top, and one on the left. You should get a something similar to this:

Page 36: Explain how genes are responsible for certain traits that we acquire from our parents?  In complete sentences, explain meiosis and explain its role.

The two-letter combinations are the possible genotypes of offspring

They are: Rr, Rr, rr, and rr genotypes From this it is possible to determine the

probability (chance) that a flower will have a red phenotype (2/4 or 50%) or a white phenotype (2/4 or 50%)

Traits are controlled by alleles on chromosomes

An allele’s effect is dominant or recessive

When a pair of chromosomes separate during meiosis the different alleles for a trait move into separate sex cells

Page 40: Explain how genes are responsible for certain traits that we acquire from our parents?  In complete sentences, explain meiosis and explain its role.

A trait that is controlled by more than two alleles is said to be controlled by multiple alleles

Traits controlled by multiple alleles produce more than three phenotypes of that trait

For Example:

The alleles for blood types in humans are called A, B, and O

The O allele is recessive to both the A and B alleles

Page 42: Explain how genes are responsible for certain traits that we acquire from our parents?  In complete sentences, explain meiosis and explain its role.

When a person inherits one A allele and one B allele for blood type, both alleles are expressed

The person has the blood phenotype AB

Page 43: Explain how genes are responsible for certain traits that we acquire from our parents?  In complete sentences, explain meiosis and explain its role.

A person with phenotype A blood inherited an A and an O allele (AO)

~OR~

an A and an A allele (AA)

Page 44: Explain how genes are responsible for certain traits that we acquire from our parents?  In complete sentences, explain meiosis and explain its role.

Someone with phenotype B blood has the genotype BB or BO

This person inherited either a B and an O allele

~OR~ Two B alleles

Page 45: Explain how genes are responsible for certain traits that we acquire from our parents?  In complete sentences, explain meiosis and explain its role.

A person with phenotype O blood has the genotype OO

Occurs when a group of gene pairs acts together to produce a trait

The effects of many alleles produces a wide variety of phenotypes

A student notices that fruit flies with curly wings trait develops straight wings if kept at temperature 16 degree Celsius. The best explanantion for this observation is that (a) wing shaped is controlled by behavior (b) wing shaped is influenced by light intensity (c) gene expression can be modified interactions

with environment (d) gene mutations for the wing shape can occur
