1. Dog Kennel Brochure

2. You will be creating a brochure to advertise your Dog Kennel. You “design” puppies using your knowledge of genetics and patterns of inheritance. You must choose 5 traits that your puppies have: – 3 must be inherited by dominant/recessive alleles – 1 is inherited by incomplete dominance – 1 is inherited by codominance

3. Instructions 1.Create a title page: – Title (name of kennel), your name, and a picture 2.On section 2, list and define the following terms: – Genes – Genotype – Phenotype – Heterozygous – Homozygous – Dominant – Recessive – Chromosome

4. Instructions 3.In section 3, describe 5 traits that you want to look at in the dogs that you are breeding for. – 3 traits must show dominant/recessive inheritance What trait is dominant? What trait is recessive? – One trait must show incomplete dominance. – One trait must show codominance.

5. Instructions In sections 4 and 5, create Punnett squares for each of the 5 traits you picked for your dog: – Create the Punnett squares. – Label the Punnett squares with the characteristic (ex: fur color). – Identify the dominant and recessive alleles and their corresponding traits. – Include the probability on ALL Punnett squares of each genotype and phenotype.

6. Incomplete Dominance & Codominance Incomplete dominance - blending or mixing of the parents’ traits – Ex: red + white = pink Codominance – both parents’ traits appear together – Ex:red + white = red & white RRWWRW CRCRCRCR CWCWCWCW CRCWCRCW

7. Instructions In sections 6, include a write up of what traits your dogs have and why they are the best traits you could have in a dog. You are advertising your kennel here.
