Scientists often refer to Mendelian genetics.
What are 3 rules Mendelian genetics
must follow?
1.
2.
3.
Mendel’s Conclusions (Review)
1. Recessive and Dominant factors
• 1 trait always shows up if present (dominant)
• 1 trait can be hidden by the dominant factor
(recessive)
2. Law of Segregation-each parent has 2 factors
for each characteristic. They only give one of
these factors to each offspring.
3. Law of Independent Assortment-each parent
has many characteristics to pass on to each
offspring. The inheritance of one characteristic
doesn’t affect the inheritance of a different
characteristic.
Pg.37 – Set up Cornell Notes
Chp.12-Inheritance Patterns
& Human Genetics
• Karyotype-picture of all the
chromosomes of an
individual.
• Humans have 23 pairs of
homologous chromosomes.
– Autosomes
• Pairs 1-22
– Sex Chromosomes
• Pair 23
• Determine your gender
• Males=XY
Females=XX
• Eggs only carry the X
chromosomes, sperm carry
X or Y.
Human Karyotype
Down’s Syndrome-Trisomy 21
Klinefelter’s = XXY
Simple vs. Complex Inheritance
• Simple inheritance is like
Mendel’s experiments—2
alleles, one dominant and
one recessive.
– Often called Mendelian
inheritance.
• The inheritance of one trait
doesn’t effect the inheritance
of another trait
• Complex patterns of
inheritance do not follow this
pattern.
Types of Complex Inheritance
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
Incomplete and codominance
Polygenic traits
Multiple allele traits
Complex characters
Sex Influenced traits
Linked genes
Sex-linked traits
Remember: these do not follow
Mendelian inheritance!!!
1. Incomplete and codominance
•
Incompleteheterozygotes have a
blend of the 2 alleles.
–
–
–
–
•
Tay Sachs disease
TT=normal production
of lipid metabolizing
enzyme.
tt=no enzyme
Tt=1/2 of the needed
amount of enzyme
Codominance-both
alleles show up in
heterozygotes.
–
Sickle cell anemia
2. Polygenic traits
• Polygenic traits are
controlled by more
than one gene
pair.
• Such traits
produce a bellshaped curve.
– In humans, these
include height, skin
color and hair
color.
3. Multiple Allele Traits
• Multiple alleles-when more than two
different alleles exist for a trait.
• Example: Human Blood Type
– Has 3 possible alleles (A,B,O)
– A person only gets 2 of these alleles.
•
•
•
•
•
•
A and B are codominant.
O is recessive to A and B
AA/Ao=type A
AB=type AB
BB/Bo=type B
oo=type O
Inheritance of blood type
IB
io
IA
IAIB
IAio
IB
IBIB
IBio
4. Complex characters
• Influenced by
environment and
genes.
– Cancer, skin color,
height
5. Sex Influenced traits
• Males and females show a different
phenotype when they have the same
genotype.
– Male pattern baldness
6. Linked traits
• Traits that tend to be inherited
together because they are close
together on the chromosome.
7. Sex-linked traits
• Autosomal genes-found on the autosomes(1-22)
• Sex-linked genes-Genes carried on the X or Y
chromosome (Pair 23).
– These genes code for sex-linked traits.
– X-linked traits are more common than Y-linked traits
(the X chromosome is much larger)
– Males get X-linked traits more commonly than
females because they have only one X chromosome.
Recessives are NOT hidden.
Human sex-linked traits
• Human sex-linked
diseases include
colorblindness and
hemophilia.
Red-green colorblindness
• Recessive trait carried
on the X chromosome.
• XR=normal vision
• Xr=red-green colorblind
Females: XRXR XRXr XrXr
Males:
YXR
YXr

Types of Mutation Chart-complete the chart
as we go through the types of mutations
MUTATIONS
Changes in DNA that affect genetic
information
What Causes Mutations?
• There are two ways in which DNA
can become mutated:
–Mutations can be inherited.
• Parent to child
–Mutations can be acquired.
• Environmental damage
• Mistakes when DNA is copied
Chromosome Mutations
Changes in number and structure of
entire chromosomes
Nondisjunction = Changes in number and
structure of entire chromosomes because a
chromosome fails to separate during meiosis
Chromosome Mutations
• Example: Down Syndrome
– Chromosome 21 does not
separate correctly.
– They have 47 chromosomes
in stead of 46.
– Children with Down Syndrome
develop slower, may have
heart and stomach illnesses
and vary greatly in their
degree of intelligence.
Sex Chromosome Nondisjunction
• Example:
Klinefelter’s
Syndrome
– XXY, XXYY, XXXY
– Male
– Sterility
– Small testicles
– Breast enlargement
Sex Chromosome Nondisjunction
• Example: XYY Syndrome
– Normal male traits
– Often tall and thin
– Associated with antisocial and behavioral problems
Sex Chromosome Nondisjunction
• Example: Turner’s
Syndrome
–X
– Female
– sex organs don't
mature at
adolescence
– sterility
– short stature
Sex Chromosome Nondisjunction
• Example: XXX
– Trisomy X, Triple X
– Female
– Little or no visible differences
– tall stature
– learning disabilities
– limited fertility
Chromosome Mutations
• Deletion: the loss of a piece of
chromosome due to breakage
Deletion Example
• Cri-du-chat
– Deletion of material on 5th
chromosome
– Characterized by the catlike cry made by cri-duchat babies
– Varied levels of metal
handicaps
Chromosome Mutations
• Inversion: a chromosomal
segment breaks off, flips around,
then reattaches
Chromosome Mutations
• Translocation: a piece of one
chromosome breaks off & reattaches to
a non-homologous chromosome
Gene Mutations
• Point Mutations =
– substitution, insertion,
or deletion of a single
nucleotide which is a
change that occurs
within the DNA of a
chromosome
Types of Point Mutations
1. Substitution = 1 nucleotide
replaces another
• THE FAT CAT ATE THE RAT
• THE FAT HAT ATE THE RAT
Types of Point Mutations
2. Insertion = 1 or more nucleotides are
added to a gene
• THE FAT CAT ATE THE RAT
• THE FAT CAT XLW ATE THE RAT
Types of Point Mutations
3. Deletion = 1 or more
nucleotides in a gene are lost
• THE FAT CAT ATE THE RAT
• THE FAT CAT THE RAT
Frameshift = shifts the reading frame of the
genetic message so that the protein may not
be able to perform its function.
• Caused by:
– Insertion
• THE FAT CAT ATE THE RAT
• THE FAT HCA TAT ETH ERA T
– Deletion
• THE FAT CAT ATE THE RAT
• TEF ATC ATA TET GER AT

2. T or F Mutations are harmful to the
organism that has them.
3. T or F All mutations are inherited.
4. T or F Different alleles for a trait arise
because of mutations.
5. T or F Mutations cause a change in the
organism because they change the protein
that is coded for by the DNA.
Significance of Mutations
• Most are neutral
• Eye color
• Birth marks
• Some are harmful
• Sickle Cell Anemia
• Down Syndrome
• Some are beneficial
• Atherosclerosis is principally a disease of the
modern age, one produced by modern diets and
modern life-styles. There is a community in Italy
near Milan whose residents don't get
atherosclerosis because of a fortunate mutation in
one of their forebearers. This mutation is
particularly interesting because the person who had
the original mutation has been identified.
