HOW CAN INHERITANCE BE MODELED?

Punnett Square Article Scenario
 You
are a gardener and you were given two pea
plants. The person who gave them to you said that
one plant has the genotype Gg and the other plant has
a genotype of gg. You decide to plant them close
together to make sure that they will breed with each
other and produce offspring. So . . .
 How
can inheritance be modeled?
©Copyright 2014 by www.cpalms.org
 1.
The trait being studied in this scenario is pea
color.
 It
takes two alleles to determine some traits,
like pea color.
©Copyright 2014 by www.cpalms.org
 An
allele is a different form of the same gene.
A
dominant allele is a hereditary unit that
blocks the expression of another allele.
 2a.
The dominant allele expresses for the color
green and is represented by the capital letter
G.
©Copyright 2014 by www.cpalms.org
A
recessive allele is a hereditary unit that is
blocked by a dominant allele.
 2b.
The recessive allele expresses for the color
yellow and is represented by the lower case
letter g.

rather than tall pea plants, would you be able to
with these two plants? Explain why on the back of
this sheet of paper.
 Answer
1—If you answered no.
I
would not be able to produce short pea plants with this
pair of plants because one parent is homozygous
dominant and can only pass on the dominant get to their
offspring. This means that every offspring produced will
have at least one dominant allele. So, all offspring will by
tall.

would not be able to produce short pea plants in this
generation; however, if I crossed two of the heterozygous
offspring, I would be able to produce some short pea
plants. If two heterozygous tall pea plants crossed about 1
out of every 4 plants will be short.


Explain.
I
would cross a heterozygous offspring with a homozygous recessive
offspring to make sure that I had half purple and half white flowers.
The first cross (Pp x Pp) would create too many purple flowers and the
third cross (pp x pp) would create nothing but white flowers. The
second cross (Pp x pp) would create the right amount because only
half of the offspring would most likely inherit the dominant allele from
one parent.
