Learning Intentions
Goal: to analyze mechanisms of chromosomal inheritance
You must know: How the chromosome theory of inheritance
connects the physical movement of chromosomes in meiosis to Mendel’s laws of inheritance
The unique pattern of inheritance in sex-linked and linked genes
Also: Lab 3
The roles of segregation, independent assortment, and crossing over in generating genetic variation
How to calculate map distance from experimental data
Lab 7 How to use data to determine the mode of
transmission and genetic make-up of the parents How to use a Punnett square to verify your
conclusions
Remember...Chromosome Theory of Inheritance
What is the relationship between a pair of alleles and a homologous pair of chromosomes?
Remember...Chromosome Theory of Inheritance
Alleles are located on chromosomes. The homologous pair of chromosomes
code for the same genes, each having one allele.
Homologous chromosomes
Remember...Chromosome Theory of Inheritance
Since genes have specific locations on chromosomes (loci), when chromosomes segregate and assort independently so do the genes!
Sex-Linked Genes
A sex linked gene is a gene located on the X sex chromosome.
Would this individual be a male or a female? How do you know?
Read pages 109-110 in Holtzclaw
Morgan’s Sex-Linked Discovery in 1910!
He got a Nobel Prize... He’s kind of a big deal.
Thomas Hunt Morgan 1866-1945
The Fly Room!
The gene for fly eye colour is found on the “X” sex chromosome!
Sex-Linked Genes – Checking In... Can Fathers pass sex-linked genes to
their sons?
For males, do the terms homozygous and heterozygous apply?
Do most genes on the “X” sex chromosomes haveto do with sex?
Sex-Linked Genes
NO. Fathers pass sex-linked genes to their daughters but not their sons.
NO. For males, the terms homozygous and heterozygous do not apply for sex-linked genes since males only have one copy of the gene.
NO. Most genes on the “X” sex chromosomes havenothing to do with sex.
Colour Blindness: Sex-Linked Gene
Can you read the number?
Colour Blindness: Sex-Linked Gene
What happens if you cross a normal female with a colour blind male?
Colour Blindness: Sex-Linked Gene
All females are carriersAll males are normal
Colour Blindness: Sex-Linked Gene
What happens if you cross a carrier female with a normal male?
Colour Blindness: Sex-Linked Gene
½ females are carriers½ females are normal ½ males are colour-blind½ males are normal
Colour Blindness: Sex-Linked Gene
What happens if you cross a carrier female with a colour-blind male?
Colour Blindness: Sex-Linked Gene
½ females are colour blind½ females are carriers ½ males are colour blind½ males are normal
Colour Blindness: Sex-Linked Gene
All females are carriers
½ females are carriers and ½ males are colour-blind
½ females are colour blind, ½ females are carriers. ½ males are colourblind
CC (copy cat) was born in 2001. She is the first cloned cat.
Discuss...
During early embryonic development of female carriers for colour blindness, the normal allele is inactivated by chance in about half the cells. Why, then, aren’t half of female’s colour blind?

Eye cells must come from multiple cells in early embryo
Having ~1/2 of mature eye cells expressing proteins for colour detection must be enough for normal colour vision
