1 d. Multiple Alleles – Instead of having two forms of an allele, there are more than two for one gene. i. The best example for humans is blood. There 3 alleles for blood types in humans: A, B and O. A and B are co dominant while O is recessive.

2 Multiple Alleles – Blood Type
Type A genotypes could be: IAIA or IAi. Type B genotypes could be: IBIB or IBi. Type AB genotype is: IAIB Type O genotype is: ii

3 Practice A man who is heterozygous for type A blood marries a woman who is heterozygous for type B blood. Find the possible outcomes

4 e. Sex linked traits i. Autonomies – there are 44 (22, pairs) of non sex chromosomes. ii. Sex Chromosomes – the 23rd pair of chromosomes are the sex chromosomes. The genotype for females is XX; the genotype for males is XY.

5 e. Sex linked traits iii. Sex linked traits – Are genes located on the X chromosome. There is almost no information located on the Y chromosome. Since males have only one X chromosome they show whatever allele is on the X chromosome, regardless of whether it is dominant or recessive.

6 e. Sex linked traits iii. This is the only time that a single recessive allele is expressed. Two examples of sex-linked traits in humans are red/green colorblindness and hemophillia. (A recessive sex linked trait that keeps your blood from clotting.)

11 Sex linked traits - Colorblindness
If normal vision (N) is dominant to colorblindness (n) give the genotypes for each of the following: A female carrier: XNXn A homozygous dominant female: XNXN Colorblind male: XnY Colorblind female: XnXn A male with normal vision: XNY

12 Sex linked traits Who does the male get the X chromosome from? Mother
Who does a male inherit recessive sex linked traits from? Mother Who are colorblind more often, men or women? Men; no information on Y to mask the recessive trait on X.

13 Practice A female carrier has a child with a male with normal vision. What are the chances of colorblindness occuring in: Son? Daughter?

14 Practice A colorblind male has a child with a normal female. Fill out the cross.
