8. Terminology Homozygous-two of the same alleles for a given trait Dominant Recessive Heterozygous-each cell of an organism contains two different alleles for a given trait Example:

9. Tt X Tt

10. More Terminology Genotypic Ratio- the combination of alleles for a given trait (gene combination) Phenotypic Ratio- a ratio of what the offspring look like

11. Test of Segregation Test cross Rr X rr RR X rr

12. Mendle’s Conclusions Principle of Dominance- one form of a hereditary trait (dominant), dominates or prevents the expression of the recessive trait. Principle of Segregation- during gamete formation the pair of genes responsible for each trait separates so that each gamete receives only one gene for each trait.

17. Mendel’s Work Revisited In the early 1900’s Walter Sutton observed meiosis in grasshoppers. He concluded that chromosomes do indeed behave like Mendel had thought. It also started the idea that genes are on the chromosomes.

18. Thomas Hunt Morgan His work was on fruit flies Experimented with the sex chromosomes X and Y chromosomes differ between the sexes so they are called sex chromosomes The other chromosomes are called autosomes
