Mendel’s Experiments • Mendel used the plants from the F1 generation
and self-pollinated them. This became the F2 generation. What did he see?

been _________ in the F1 generation.

The First Law of Mendelian Inheritance
• For each characteristic (such as flower colour), an organism carries ___ factors (genes): ____ from each parent.
• Parent organisms donate _____ ____copy of each gene in their gametes.

Alleles
• A locus is like the __________ of a gene and we have two forms of these (one from mom and one from dad)
• Each form of a gene is called an ________
• The alleles an individual can inherit for a particular characteristic can be the ______ or _____________.

Alleles
• This leads to different _____ of a characteristic

• In contrast, the traits of an individual make up its ___________. The alleles that are ____________ determine an individual’s phenotype.

Dominant vs. Recessive
• In heterozygous individuals, which allele is expressed? – A _________allele is an allele that expresses its
