Pedigrees•A pedigree is a graphic representation of
human inheritance.
Squares = malesCircles = females
Shaded circles/squares = individuals showing the trait being studied.

Recessive Heredity•Most genetic disorders are caused by
recessive alleles (must be inherited from both parents)
•Traits with recessive alleles usually skip a generation.
•Examples – cystic fibrosis, Tay-Sachs disease, phenylketonuria

Simple Dominant Heredity•Only need to be inherited from one
parent.
•Examples – tongue rolling, attached earlobes, hitchhikers thumb, Huntington’s disease

Incomplete Dominance
•The phenotype of the heterozygous is intermediate.
•Ex. Red flower (RR) x white flower (rr) = pink flower (Rr)
•Ex. Curly Hair (HH) x straight hair (hh) = wavy hair (Hh)

Codominance•Causes the phenotype of both homozygous
parents to be produced in heterozygous offspring.
•Example:
black feather chicken (BB) + white feather chicken (bb) = black and white feather
chicken (Bb)

Other Genetic Patterns
•Multiple Alleles – traits controlled by more than two alleles.
•Sex determination:autosomes (44) – all the other
chromosomessex chromosomes (2) – determine sex
XX = femaleXY = male

•Sex-linked traits – traits controlled by genes located on the sex chromosome.
* usually occur more in males
•Polygenic inheritance – traits controlled by two or more genes (Many alleles)
ex. eye color and skin color

Codominance In Humans
•Sickle-cell Anemia:- most common in black Americans
(1 in 12)- the presence of abnormal shaped
red blood cells (sickle shaped or half moon)- slow blood flow, block small
vesssels, and result in tissue damage- Individuals who are heterozygous,
produce both normal and sickle shaped
blood cells. (codominance)

Multiple Alleles in Humans
•Blood Type:- Gene I has three alleles: IA, IB, i- these three alleles produce four
blood types A, B, AB, and O- blood typing is necessary before a
person can get a blood transfusion. - blood typing can also help
determine parents

Sex-Linked Traits in Humans
•Traits that are determined by genes that are carried on the sex chromosomes.
•Most are located on the X-chromosome.•Males have these traits more than
females
•Ex. Colorblindness, hemophilia

Polygenic Inheritance in Humans•Eye Color•Skin color

Changes in Chromosome Numbers•Humans normally have 44 autosomes (22 pairs)
- an extra chromosome is called trisomy- Trisomy 21 (extra 21st chromosome) =
Down Syndrome
•Changes in sex chromosomes:- If there is a Y chromosome, it is male.- If there is an X chromosome, it is female- Extra chromosomes usually mean they are sterile, but can lead normal lives
