Mendel’s ConclusionsMendel’s Conclusions
• Biological inheritance is determined by Biological inheritance is determined by chemical factors passed from one chemical factors passed from one generation to the next generation to the next (Particulate (Particulate hypothesis)hypothesis)
– Geneticists now refer to these factors as Geneticists now refer to these factors as genesgenes
– Genes can come in more than one form, each Genes can come in more than one form, each form is an form is an alleleallele
ex. B or b ex. B or b (The “B” gene w/ 2 alleles)(The “B” gene w/ 2 alleles)

The FThe F11 Cross Cross
• Mendel’s experiment:– Allow the F1 plants to self pollinate
• The results:– The dominant trait was expressed 75%
of the time– The recessive trait was expressed 25%
of the time
![Page 17: Background Vocabulary True-breeds: pure gene lines – offspring match parent Self-pollination: pollen from flower fertilizes the same plant Cross-pollination:](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081513/56649eb65503460f94bc031e/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
The Explanations:The Explanations:
1. The recessive allele was still present in the F1 plants
2. Principle of Segregation: Each individual inherits two alleles for each gene.

Probability Probability
• The likelihood of an event happening• How is it determined:
– Likelihood of rolling heads = 50% (1 of 2 possibilities)
– Rolling heads twice? • 50% x 50% = 25%
• To predict outcomes of genetic crosses we use punnett squarespunnett squares

• Homozygous: two identical alleles (AA or aa)
• Heterozygous: two different alleles (Aa)
• Phenotype: Physical appearance • Genotype: Genetic make-up
– Homozygous dominant (AA)– Homozygous recessive (aa)– Heterozygous (Aa)
![Page 20: Background Vocabulary True-breeds: pure gene lines – offspring match parent Self-pollination: pollen from flower fertilizes the same plant Cross-pollination:](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081513/56649eb65503460f94bc031e/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
The Test Cross• In order to determine whether an individual
expressing a dominant trait is homozygous or heterozygous, it can be crossed with an organism expressing the recessive trait.
• If R = round seeds and r = wrinkled seeds, show how the results of a test cross for seed shape will differ for homozgygous v. heterozgous genotypes for round seeds.

Exploring Mendelian Exploring Mendelian GeneticsGenetics
• Does segregation of one set of alleles influence the segregation of another pair of alleles?
• Mendel’s Two Factor Crosses– Followed two traits at a time.– Same method as his original single-factor
crosses– Cross-pollinated to produce the F1 and
allowed them to self-pollinate

A Summary of Mendel’s A Summary of Mendel’s PrinciplesPrinciples
• Dominance: a recessive allele will be masked by a dominant allele
• Segregation: alleles for each trait segregate (separate) during gamete formation
• Independent Assortment: Alleles for different traits do not influence each other’s segregation
![Page 27: Background Vocabulary True-breeds: pure gene lines – offspring match parent Self-pollination: pollen from flower fertilizes the same plant Cross-pollination:](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081513/56649eb65503460f94bc031e/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Mendel’s Peas were ideal for Mendel’s Peas were ideal for learning about inheritance, but learning about inheritance, but they do not represent the norm… they do not represent the norm…
• Traits in pea plants are determined by just two alleles
• In peas, one allele is clearly dominant & the other is clearly recessive
• However, things aren’t always this clear-cut and simple in the world of genetics.
![Page 28: Background Vocabulary True-breeds: pure gene lines – offspring match parent Self-pollination: pollen from flower fertilizes the same plant Cross-pollination:](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081513/56649eb65503460f94bc031e/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
What if Mendel looked at mice?
If a female black mouse and a male white mouse were crossed, what will the offspring look like? - 100% are GREYGREY
If the F1 offspring were crossed, what will there offspring look like?- 25% black- 50% grey- 25% white

Incomplete DominanceIncomplete Dominance
• A cross between two organisms with different traits results in an offspring with a third phenotype that is a blending of the parental traits.
• It’s like mixing paints: – Red + White = Pink– Red does not totally block (dominate)
white, we end up with something in-between.

CodominanceCodominance
• Similar to incomplete dominance in that there is a 3rd phenotype
• In COdominance, the “recessive” and “dominant” alleles appear together in the phenotype of hybrid organisms.
• Red x White = red & white

Polygenic (Multifactorial) Traits
• Phenotype is determine by more than one gene
• Often results in gradations, where each gene has an additive effectEx) If 10 gene loci are turned on plant will be 20cm tall, if only 5 loci are turned on plant will be 10cm tall
• Results in a bell-shaped curve – Skin color & Height are examples in humans

Rh Disease• Mother's antibodies cross the placenta to fight the Rh positive cells in the baby's body.
•As the antibodies destroy the red blood cells, the baby can become anemic.
•The anemia can lead to other complications including jaundice and organ enlargement
•With amniocentesis, the amniotic fluid may have a yellow coloring and contain bilirubin.
•Ultrasound of the fetus shows enlarged liver, spleen, or heart and fluid build up in the fetus' abdomen.

Gene Linkage & Mapping Chromosomes• Genes on the same chromosome are more likely to be
inherited together• Crossing over helps to increased variation, but the
closer two genes are on a chromosome the more likely they are to be “linked”
![Page 50: Background Vocabulary True-breeds: pure gene lines – offspring match parent Self-pollination: pollen from flower fertilizes the same plant Cross-pollination:](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081513/56649eb65503460f94bc031e/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
Sex Chromosomes & Autosomes
• Two of the 46 human chromosomes are known as sex chromosomes, because they determine the individual’s sex.– Females have two copies of an X
chromosome.– Males have one X chromosome and one Y
chromosome.• The remaining 44 chromosomes are
known as autosomal chromosomes or autosomes.
![Page 51: Background Vocabulary True-breeds: pure gene lines – offspring match parent Self-pollination: pollen from flower fertilizes the same plant Cross-pollination:](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081513/56649eb65503460f94bc031e/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
Sex-Linked GenesSex-Linked Genes
• Located on one of the sex chromosomes
(X or Y)• Since the X
chromosome is longer, it has many genes not found on the Y chromosome.
• Most sex-linked genes are X-linked genes.

X-Linked InheritanceX-Linked Inheritance• Examples:
– Hemophilia• The protein necessary for normal blood clotting is
missing
– Colorblindness• Defective version of one or all of the 3 genes
responsible for color vision
– Male Pattern Baldness• Hair loss
– Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy• Weakening and loss of skeletal muscle
• These traits are recessive & more common in males. Why?

Complete the following sex-linked crosses:
Eva and Paul just had a son, Michael. Paul is has normal color vision, but Eva’s father was colorblind. What is the likelihood that Michael is colorblind?
Laura and Steve are expecting their first child. They are concerned about the chances their child might be hemophiliac because both Steve and Laura’s father are hemophiliac. What is the probability of Laura and Steve having a hemophiliac child?

Chromosomal DisordersChromosomal Disorders• The most common error in meiosis
occurs when homologous chromosomes fail to separate.
• This is known as nondisjunction, which means “not coming apart”
• If nondisjunction occurs, abnormal numbers of chromosomes may find their way into gametes and a disorder of chromosome numbers may occur.
• A monosomy results if an entire chromosome is missing and a trisomy results if there is an additional copy of a chromosome

Jumping Genes• In the 1940’s, while
studying corn, Barbara McClintock discovered that sometimes genes could move from one location to another in a chromosome or even to other chromosomes.
• The movement could result in the genes landing in the middle of another gene and disrupting them.
• These “jumping genes” are now called transposons.

Down Syndrome
• Trisomy 21• Produces mild to
severe mental retardation
• Characterized by:– Increased susceptibility
to many diseases– Higher frequency of
some birth defects.

Klinefelter Syndrome• Karyotype 47, XXY• Extra X chromosome
interferes with meiosis and usually prevents these individuals from reproducing
• Most common sex chromosome disorder, second most common disorder due to the presence of an extra chromosome

Genes & The Environment• Some obvious human traits are almost
impossible to associate with a single gene.• These traits, such as the shape of your eyes
or ears, polygenic meaning they are controlled by many genes.
• Many of your personal traits are only partially governed by genetics.
• epigenetics is the study of heritable changes in gene expression or cellular phenotype caused by mechanisms other than changes in the underlying DNA sequence

The Genetic Basis of Cancer• You already know that cancer results when controls on the cell
cycle do not work properly and cells grow and divide too quickly.
• Two classes of genes direct the production of proteins that regulate cell growth and division:
– one produces growth factors to initiate cell division (can mutate to an oncogene & result in too much growth factor)
– the other produces proteins to stop cell division (tumor suppressor genes)
• Cancer is always a genetic disease in that it results from changes in DNA: – Since the mutations do not usually arise in gametes, cancer is not
usually passed from parent to child– However some mutations do arise in the ovaries or testes which can
give rise to gametes and result in the inheritance of cancer genes.
