1 Genotype And Phenotype

2 You’re up in arms over it
Fire Engine Breakfast

3 Genotype and Phenotype
Target: I will be able to use the principles of dominance to identify the phenotype given a genotype. Homozygous: When an organism has two of the same alleles for a certain trait. For example TT, tt. Pg. 19

4 Heterozygous: When an organism has two different alleles for a certain trait.
For example Tt. Pg. 23

5 Genotype: Combinations of gene alleles in an individual.
TT, Tt, or tt. Phenotype: Physical expression of genes that determine an individual’s appearance. Tall or Short.

6 Two organisms can have the same phenotype but different genotypes.
For example: Both individuals can have Brown eyes, but one can be homozygous (BB) and one can be heterozygous (Bb). Lets practice!

10 Studying my Genes 1. With a partner go through the Studying my Genes Worksheet, helping each other decide which alleles they have and what the genotypes and phenotypes are. Remember: If you have the dominant trait, only write 1 capital letter in the genotype column since we don’t know if you are homozygous or heterozygous. If you have the recessive trait, you should write 2 lowercase letters 2. Count up their amount of dominant/recessive alleles you have and answer the first question at the bottom of the page. 3. Then count up how many students in the class have each trait and use the class data, answer the second question. 4. Finish the worksheet by analyzing what it truly means to be dominant (question #3) Pg. 18
