2. Think for a second about the most crazy thing you have ever seen…

3. when something like THIS could be possible… Imagine in the future…

4. The future is now…

5. How did the scientists do it?

6. INTRO TO GENETICS

7. GENETICS the study of how traits are passed from one generation to the next

8. TRAIT a characteristic Examples: Plant size, seed color, pod shape

9. GENES Each feature of the pea plants is controlled by a gene. It may have a gene that controls its color, another for size and another for shape.

10. GENE the factors that control traits (found in the DNA)

11. Above you see chromosomes. The circled area is a gene on chromosome #22. The absence of this gene causes velo-cardio- facial syndrome (VCFS) which may cause ADD and mental illness

12. ALLELES Each gene comes in different forms called alleles, so the gene that controls flower color may come in two alleles: purple and white.

13. ALLELES different forms of a gene

15. GREGOR MENDEL The “father” of genetics Lived from 1822-1884 Austrian Monk Published his work in 1866, but no one took him seriously until 1900. Studied Pea Plants!

16. MENDEL’S EXPERIMENTS

17. Mendel experimented with 7 different characteristics

18. Mendel Got Lucky for 2 Big Reasons 1.First, he had a lot of time…he was a monk. This let him do LOTS of experiments with the peas! 2.Each trait had 2 options. This was key because he could tell if it was one way or the other.

19. HOMOZYGOUS organism with two identical alleles for the same trait (TT or tt)

20. HETEROZYGOUS organism with two different alleles for the same trait (Tt)

21. DOMINANT allele that is expressed when in the presence of a recessive allele (TT or Tt = tall)

22. RECESSIVE allele that is expressed only when homozygous (tt = short)

23. PHENOTYPE physical characteristics (Tall, Brown)

24. GENOTYPE the genetic makeup (TT, TtHh)

25. GENE = Height ALLELE = Tall, Short Gene is represented by the letter “t” Dominant = T Recessive = t Remember you need 2 copies of every gene!!!

26. How can we determine what the offspring are going to be?

27. PUNNETT SQUARES

28. Reginald C. Punnett Inventor of the Punnett Square

29. PUNNETT SQUARES chart showing the possible combination of alleles in a cross

30. Punnett Squares show the probability of getting a certain type of offspring

31. THE PARENTS GENOTYPES DAD = Tt (heterozygous) MOM = Tt (heterozygous) PHENOTYPES DAD = Tall MOM = Tall

32. PUNNETT SQUARES

33. THE OFFSPRING TT (homozygous dominant) Tt (heterozygous) tt (homozygous recessive) GENOTYPES 1TT:2Tt:1tt (1:2:1)

34. THE OFFSPRING TT (tall) Tt (tall) tt (short) PHENOTYPES 3 Tall :1 Short (3:1)

35. Cross a homozygous dominant with a recessive (for height where T is dominant and tall). Find the genotype and the phenotype

36. Cross a heterozygote with a recessive (for height where T is dominant and tall). Find the genotype and the phenotype

37. Cross a heterozygote with another heterozygote (for skin color where Black is B, b = white). Find the genotype and the phenotype

38. Cross a heterozygote with another heterozygote (for nose size where big nose is N and small nose is n). Find the genotype and the phenotype

39. If we saw an organism that had round seeds (round is dominant), how could we figure out what its genotype is?

40. A cross between an unknown and a homozygous recessive Test Cross

41. Example of a Test Cross Unknown

42. When a combination of the dominant and recessive creates a new phenotype. RR = red, rr = white, and Rr = pink Incomplete Dominance

43. RRRrrr

44. Incomplete Dominance Cross

46. When an intermediate between the dominant and recessive is expressed. BB = black, Bb=spotted, bb=white Co-dominance

47. a trait that is found on either the X or Y chromosome Sex Linked Trait

48. Hemophilia is an example of a sex linked trait.

49. a disease where your blood doesn’t clot. Hemophilia

50. Hemophilia only occurs when all of the X chromosomes have a copy of the recessive gene.

51. X H X h : female carrier X h X h : female hemophiliac X H Y: normal male X h Y: hemophiliac male

54. a protein produced by white blood cells in the body in response to the presence of an antigen, for example, a bacterium or virus ANTIBODY

55. a substance, usually a protein, on the surface of a cell or bacterium that stimulates the production of an antibody ANTIGEN

56. Law of Segregation The two alleles for a trait must separate when gametes are formed A parent randomly passes only one allele for each trait to each offspring

57. Law of Independent Assortment The genes for different traits are inherited independently of each other.

58. 200 B.C. Humans “clone” trees by cuttings

59. 1950 Humans clone frogs

60. 1980’s Humans clone mice!

61. 1997 HUMANS CLONE SHEEP!!!

62. 1998 Humans clone 8 copies of a cow!!!

63. 20??

64. moving genes from one chromosome of one organism to the chromosome of another GENETIC ENGINEERING

65. “Fat” Gene

66. making an exact copy of another cell / organism CLONING

67. Dolly—the first cloned sheep Ian Wilmut, the dude that did it

68. Check out this short movie that talks about cloning…

69. A dividing cell

71. Read NYTimes Article "Despite Warnings, 3 Vow to Go Ahead on Human Cloning" a. What did three proponents of human cloning announce on August 7, 2001? b. Where did they make this announcement? c. Why did some scientists at the symposium object to the proponents' announcement? d. Why did Dr. Alan Colman object to the research by these proponents being done in secret? e. According to the article, what was the consensus among the panel and most of those who testified before it?
