Punnett Squares
• How could you predict what the offspring would look like without actual mating?
11GeneticsGenetics
• Punnett square –
A tool used to show possible combinations of alleles

Alleles Determine Traits
• Most cells in your body have two alleles for every trait.
11GeneticsGenetics
• These alleles are located on chromosomes within the nucleus of cells.

Punnett Squares
• They show the genotype or genetic makeup, of an organism.
11GeneticsGenetics
• The way an organism looks and behaves as a result of its genotype is its phenotype

Alleles Determine Traits
• An organism with two alleles that are the same is called homozygous
11GeneticsGenetics
• An organism that has two different alleles for a trait is called heterozygous

Incomplete Dominance
• When the offspring of two homozygous parents show an intermediate phenotype, this inheritance is called incomplete dominance.
22
Genetics Since MendelGenetics Since Mendel
• Examples of incomplete dominance include the flower color of some plant breeds and the coat color of some horse breeds.

Multiple Alleles
• Traits controlled by multiple alleles produce more than three phenotypes of that trait.
22Genetics Since MendelGenetics Since Mendel
• Blood type in humans is an example of multiple alleles that produce only four phenotypes.
• The alleles for blood types are called A, B, and O.
![Page 12: What is genetics? Every sex cell has one allele for each trait. Genetics - the study of how traits are inherited through the interactions of alleles is.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022020920/56649ed15503460f94be08f3/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Multiple Alleles • When a person inherits
one A allele and one B allele for blood type, both are expressedphenotype AB.
22Genetics Since MendelGenetics Since Mendel
• A person with phenotype A blood has the genetic makeup, or genotypeAA or AO.

Pedigrees Trace Traits
• A pedigree is a visual tool for following a trait through generations of a family.
22Genetics Since MendelGenetics Since Mendel
• Males are represented by squares and females by circles.

Pedigrees Trace Traits • A completely filled circle or square shows
that the trait is seen in that person.
22Genetics Since MendelGenetics Since Mendel
• Half-colored circles or squares indicate carriers.
• People represented by empty circles or squares do not have the trait and are not carriers.
![Page 24: What is genetics? Every sex cell has one allele for each trait. Genetics - the study of how traits are inherited through the interactions of alleles is.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022020920/56649ed15503460f94be08f3/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Using Pedigrees
• A pedigree is a useful tool for a geneticist.
22Genetics Since MendelGenetics Since Mendel
• When geneticists understand how a trait is inherited, they can predict the probability that a baby will be born with a specific trait.

Using Pedigrees • Pedigrees also are important in breeding
animals or plants.
22Genetics Since MendelGenetics Since Mendel
• These organisms are bred to increase theiryield and nutritional content.

Sex Determination
• Each egg produced by a female normally contains one X chromosome.
22Genetics Since MendelGenetics Since Mendel
• Males produce sperm that normally have either an X or a Y chromosome.
![Page 27: What is genetics? Every sex cell has one allele for each trait. Genetics - the study of how traits are inherited through the interactions of alleles is.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022020920/56649ed15503460f94be08f3/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Sex Determination
• When a sperm with an X chromosome fertilizes an egg, the offspring is a female, XX.
22Genetics Since MendelGenetics Since Mendel
• A male offspring, XY is the result of a Y-containing sperm fertilizing an egg.

Chromosome Disorders
• If three copies ( an extra ) of chromosome 21 are produced in the fertilized human egg, Down’s syndrome results.

Impact of the Environment
• Your environment plays a role in how some of your genes are expressed or whether they are expressed at all.
22
Genetics Since MendelGenetics Since Mendel
• Environmental influences can be internal or external.
• Genes determine many of your traits, you might be able to influence their expression by the decisions you make.
• Some genetically people at risk for skin cancer limit their exposure to the Sun and take care of their skin, they might never develop cancer.

Genetic Engineering • Through genetic engineering, scientists are experimenting
with biological and chemical methods to change the arrangement of DNA that makes up a gene.
33
BiotechnologyBiotechnology
• Genetic engineering already is used to help produce large volumes of medicine.

Genetically Engineered Plants
• Genetic engineering can produce improvements in crop plants, such as corn, wheat, and rice.
33
• One type of genetic engineering involves finding the genes that produce desired traits in one plant and then inserting those genes into a different plant.
