Answer the following with your partner
1. What does a “pure strain” or true-breeder” mean? Think about Mendel’s pea experiments.
2. What is a monohybrid cross? What are the genotypic and phenotypic ratios?
3. What is a dihybrid cross? Phenotypic ratios?
4. Explain incomplete dominance.

Degrees of Dominance
• Complete dominance occurs when phenotypes of the heterozygote and dominant homozygote are identical
• In incomplete dominance, the phenotype of F1 hybrids is somewhere between the phenotypes of the two parental varieties
• In codominance, two dominant alleles affect the phenotype in separate, distinguishable ways

Gene Linkage:
Drosophilia melanogaster –has
only 4 pairs of chromosomes.
Therefore must have large
# of genes on each.
Dr. Thomas Hunt Morgan (1910)
mapped these genes.
Genes stay together during
process of meiosis unless
crossing over occurs.
This does not support Mendel’s
Principle of Independent Assortment
Chromosome #2 has genes controlling
Eye color, wing type, body color, etc.
Crosses involving linked genes do not give
The same phenotypic ratio as unlinked.
Morgan’s Choice of Experimental Organism
Several characteristics make fruit flies a convenient organism for genetic studies:
They breed at a high rate
A generation can be bred every two weeks
They have only four pairs of chromosomes

Write a paragraph explaining the connectionbetween Mendel’s Principles of Segregationand Independent Assortment and meiosis.
Turn in when completed.
•Rh factor is a protein called an antigen on RBC
•An antigen is any substance that the body considers "foreign" and thus stimulates the body to produce antibodies against it.
•Rh factor, like the blood types A, B, and O, is inherited from one's parents.
•A simple blood test can determine blood type, including the presence of the Rh factor.
•About 85 percent of white Americans and 95 percent of African Americans have the Rh factor and are known as Rh-positive.
•Those without the Rh factor are Rh-negative.
Correlating Behavior of a Gene’s Alleles with Behavior of a Chromosome Pair
In one experiment, Morgan mated male flies with white eyes (mutant) with female flies with red eyes (wild type)
The F1 generation all had red eyes
The F2 generation showed the 3:1 red:white eye ratio, but only males had white eyes
Morgan determined that the white-eyed mutant allele must be located on the X chromosome
Morgan’s finding supported the chromosome theory of inheritance

The Behavior of Recessive Alleles
Recessively inherited disorders show up only in individuals homozygous for the allele
Carriers are heterozygous individuals who carry the recessive allele but are phenotypically normal (i.e., pigmented)
Albinism is a recessive condition characterized by a lack of pigmentation in skin and hair

Inheritance of Sex-Linked Genes
The sex chromosomes have genes for many characters unrelated to sex
A gene located on either sex chromosome is called a sex-linked gene
In humans, sex-linked usually refers to a gene on the larger X chromosome
Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings
Sex-linked genes follow specific patterns of inheritance
For a recessive sex-linked trait to be expressed
A female needs two copies of the allele
A male needs only one copy of the allele
Sex-linked recessive disorders are much more common in males than in females
