1. Genetics Review Biology Class

2. 7/3/2015 2 Vocabulary Review trait -A physical characteristic. heredity -The passing of traits from parents to offspring. genetics - The scientific study of heredity.

3. 7/3/2015 3 Question Which of the following is an example of a trait? A.Bb B.Talking loud C.Brown eyes D.Bleach blonde hair

4. 7/3/2015 4 Alleles Genes are the factors that control Traits. Alleles are the different forms of Genes. Individual Alleles control the inheritance of Traits. An offspring receives one allele from each parent.

5. 7/3/2015 5 Question What is the term for factors that control traits? A.Genes B.Purebreds C.Recessives D.Parents

6. 7/3/2015 6 Question Which term refers to physical characteristics that are studied in genetics? A.Traits B.Offspring C.Generations D.Hybrids

7. 7/3/2015Free template from www.brainybetty.com 7 DOMINANT and recessive Alleles A dominant allele is one whose trait always shows up in an organism when the allele is present. - capital letter (AA, Aa) A recessive allele is covered up when the dominant allele is present. - lower case letter (aa)

8. 7/3/2015 8 Practice R is the dominant allele for a one eyed monster. r is the recessive allele for a monster with two eyes.

9. 7/3/2015 9 Monster Genetics Rr How many eyes will our monster have?????

10. 7/3/2015Free template from www.brainybetty.com 10 Monster Genetics RR How many eyes will our monster have??

11. 7/3/2015Free template from www.brainybetty.com 11 Monster Genetics rr How many eyes will our monster have??

12. 7/3/2015 12 Question What does the notation TT mean to geneticists? A.Two dominant alleles B.Two recessive alleles C.No dominant alleles D.One dominant and on recessive allele

13. 7/3/2015 13 Codominance Some alleles are neither dominant or recessive. Codominance is when alleles are neither dominant or recessive, both alleles are expressed in the offspring.

14. 7/3/2015 14 What will Happen? You have two flowers, a white and a red, that are crossed. The flowers are codominant. What color will their offspring be.

15. 7/3/2015 15 Phenotype Phenotype is an organisms physical appearance or its visible traits. Example: a pea plant stem height can be short or tall.

16. 7/3/2015Free template from www.brainybetty.com 16 Genotype Genotype is an organisms genetic makeup, or allele combination. Example: TT, Tt, tt

17. 7/3/2015Free template from www.brainybetty.com 17 Describing genotypes Homozygous (or Purebred) is used to describe an organism that has two identical alleles for a trait. Example: TT and tt Heterozygous (or Hybrid) is used to describe an organism with two different alleles. -Example: Tt

18. 7/3/2015 18 Question Pick the answer that best describes “Aa”. A.Homozygous B.heterozygous

19. 7/3/2015 19 Punnett Squares A punnett square is a chart that shows all possible combinations of alleles that can result from a genetic cross.

20. 7/3/2015 20 Punnett Example Yellow is dominant over Green. What is the probability that the offspring will be yellow? 100%

21. 7/3/2015 21 Punnett Problems In purple people eaters, one-horn is dominant and no horns is recessive. Draw a Punnet Square showing the cross of a purple people eater that is hybrid for horns, with a purple people eater that does not have horns.

22. 7/3/2015 22 Answer Hybrids have two different alleles for one trait. Hh is the hybrid in the example. No horns would have to be hh because it is a recessive allele.

23. 7/3/2015Free template from www.brainybetty.com 23 Punnett Problems In Bears the dominant allele for brown fur is R, black fur is recessive. The female bear is Rr and the male bear is rr.

24. 7/3/2015 24 Question What are the four possible phenotypes for the cubs? A. RR, Rr B. Rr, rr C. 2 brown, 2 black D. 3 brown, 1 black

25. 7/3/2015 25 Question What is the probability that the cub will have black fur? A. 50% B. 25% C. 75% D. 100%

26. 7/3/2015 26 Question What do you call one set of instructions for an inherited trait? a.alleles b.phenotype c.albinism d.genes

27. 7/3/2015 27 Question Two forms of a gene, one from each parent, are called a.alleles. b.phenotypes. c.albinism. d.genes.

29. 7/3/2015 29 Question The allele for freckles, F, is dominant among humans. If a woman with freckles (FF) and a man without freckles (ff) have children, what are the possible genotypes of the children? A.Ff B.FF, Ff, ff C.Ff, ff D.ff

30. 7/3/2015 30 Question Part of a mouse’s tail is cut off as the mouse escapes from a cat. The mouse later reproduces. Which explanation best describes why the mouse’s offspring have long tails? A.Long tails are a dominant trait. B.Short tails do not appear in the first generation or the second generation. C.Cutting the tail of the mouse changed its genes. D.Cutting the tail of the mouse did not change its genes.

31. 7/3/2015 31 Question What is the genotype of the offspring represented in the upper left-hand box of the Punnett square? ARR BRr Crr Drrr
