1.  14 Jan 2013  Which form of reproduction is most likely to give a population of organisms genetic variety?  Why?  Vocabulary  Allele Segregation Activity

3.  Nearpod Student  Funny2018  Student PIN: FGOJO  Set up Google Drive Science Folder  5-Lastname,FirstName

4.  Male alleles are both brown.  Female alleles are brown and white.  Show the possible outcomes for the offspring.

6.  I can differentiate and make connections between phenotypes and genotypes of organisms.

7.  The instructions for a specific inherited trait that are found on one section of a chromosome of DNA.  For example, you have a gene(s) for each of the following traits:  Hair color  Eye color  Hitchhiker’s thumb  Tongue rolling  Hairline  Earlobes

8.  The different forms of a gene.  Each gene is made up of at least two alleles, one inherited from the male parent and one from the female parent.  For example:  Gene for hair color: Blonde hair OR Black hair  Gene for eye color: Blue eyes OR Brown eyes  Gene for thumb shape: Hitchhiker’s thumb OR Straight thumb  Gene for tongue rolling ability: Can roll tongue OR Can’t roll tongue  Gene for hairline: Widow’s Peak OR Straight hairline

10.  Alleles that cover up, hide, mask, or over-power other alleles.  The trait associated with the dominant allele always shows up when it is present (it dominates!).  Writing convention:  UPPERCASE letters.  For example:  H = Dominant (Straight thumb)  h = Recessive (Hitchhiker’s thumb)  Hh = Straight thumb  HH = Straight thumb  hh = Hitchhiker’s thumb

11.  Alleles that are covered up or hidden.  The recessive trait will only show up if a dominant allele is NOT present.  Writing convention:  lowercase letters  For example:  W = Dominant (Widow’s peak)  w = Recessive (Straight hairline)  Ww = Widow’s peak  ww = Straight hairline

12.  Both alleles are the SAME as each other.  Homo = same  For example:  TT = homozygous DOMINANT (both alleles are dominant)  tt = homozygous RECESSVIE (both alleles are recessive)

13.  Each allele is DIFFERENT from each other.  Hetero = different  For example:  Hh  Ss  Ww  Tt

14.  The genes that an organism has in their DNA  Genotype = Genes  Represented by letters  Examples:  Hh  BB  tt  Dd

15.  The traits or characteristics of an organism  (What it looks like)  Phenotype = “Features”  Examples:  Brown or blonde hair color  Brown or blue eye color  Hitchhiker’s or straight thumb  Tongue rolling ability or not  Widow’s peak or straight hairline
