What does
homozygous mean?
What does
heterozygous mean?
Define genotype.
Define phenotype.
What is a sex-linked trait?
What is the F1 generation?
What are the 3 patterns of
inheritance?
Explain how they are different.
A couple has 5 boys. The wife is
pregnant with her 6th child. What is the
likelihood that this child will be a boy?
Tall pea plants are dominant to short
pea plants. You cross a homozygous
tall plant with a heterozygous tall
plant.
Predict the genotypic and phenotypic
ratios of the offspring.
You find a new species of butterflies.
Homozygous butterflies are red or
yellow. Heterozygous butterflies are red
and yellow speckled. Two heterozygous
butterflies breed.
- Identify the pattern of inheritance.
- Predict the genotypes and phenotypes
of offspring.
Homozygous flowers are purple or
white. Heterozygous flowers are
purple. Two heterozygous purple
flowers are crossed.
- Identify the pattern of inheritance.
- Predict the genotypes and
phenotypes of offspring.
Homozygous birds are blue or green.
Heterozygous birds are pink. A pink bird
breeds with a green bird.
- Identify the pattern of inheritance.
- Predict the genotypes and phenotypes of
offspring.
Mom has type O blood. Dad has
type AB blood. What possible
blood types could their children
inherit?
John has Type A blood. Jane
has AB blood. Their daughter
has Type B blood.
What is Jane’s genotype?
What is John’s genotype?
If mom has Hemophilia, a sexlinked trait, and dad is normal,
what are the odds that they will
have a son with the disorder?
A daughter?
A child?
Your mother is a carrier for
Hemophilia, an X-linked disorder.
Your father does not have
Hemophilia. You are a daughter in
a family of four.
What are the odds that you are a
carrier for Hemophilia?
Colorblindness is an X-linked
trait. Jane is married to John.
Neither Jane nor John is
colorblind. But, they have 2
sons who are colorblind. How
is this possible?
What does SCNT stand for?
______________ is used to
separate DNA fragments
according to size.
-Which fragments travel
faster (small or large ones)?
Police find a very small amount
of DNA at a crime scene. What
process can be done to make
more copies of the DNA found
so that it can be properly
analyzed?
If identical twins have the exact
same DNA, what accounts for
some of the differences we see
between them?
What cuts DNA at specific
locations?
Who is the “Father of
Genetics”?
If an individual has B- blood, he/she can
obtain a transfusion people with
________________ blood types.
(Be specific & list all possibilities)
.
If an organism has the dominant phenotype,
how do you determine its genotype?
Explain what you need to do.
The Law of _____________ states
that genes on different chromosomes
separate into sex cells independent of
each other
