• Karyotype - the display of the pair of
chromosomes with highlighted alleles
• Phenotype - the physical appearance of the
alleles
• Genotype - genes of an individual Bb, BB,
or bb (B is the dominant allele, b is the
recessive allele)
• Trait - term for distinguishing phenotypic
features
INHERITANCE OF GENES
Maternal
chromosome pair
Paternal
chromosome pair
Gene
Maternal gamete: egg
Paternal gamete: sperm
Gametes unite during fertilization.
Humans have
23 pairs of
chromosomes
(46 individual
chromosomes)
and, thus, two
copies of each
gene.
Each human
gamete has just
one copy of each
chromosome and,
thus, one copy of
each gene.
Child inherits one set of
chromosomes from each
parent and, thus, two
copies of each gene.
ALLELES
What traits will be expressed?
For simple inheritance, you only need ONE Dominant allele
for the Dominant trait to be expressed.
Naturally, the only way for a Recessive trait to be expressed
is if the person has TWO
Recessive alleles.

More Vocabulary
• Heterozygous - a dominant and a recessive
allele (Bb) (also called hybrid)
• Homozygous dominant - two dominant
alleles (BB) (also called Purebred)
• Homozygous recessive - two recessive
alleles (bb) (also called Purebred)
• Only one dominant allele need to be present
to be expressed
Punnett squares illustrate genetic crosses.
• The Punnett square is a grid system for predicting
all possible genotypes resulting from a cross.
– The axes represent
the possible gametes
of each parent.
– The boxes show the
possible genotypes
of the offspring.
• The Punnett square yields
the ratio of possible
genotypes and
phenotypes.
A monohybrid cross involves one trait.
• Monohybrid crosses examine the inheritance of
only one specific trait.
– homozygous dominant X homozygous recessive
• Genotype: all heterozygous (100%)
• Phenotype: all dominant (100%)

Heredity patterns can be calculated with probability.
• Probability is the likelihood that something will happen.
• Probability predicts an average number of occurrences, not an
exact number of occurrences.
number of ways a specific event can occur
• Probability =
number of total possible outcomes
• Probability applies to
random events such as
meiosis and fertilization.

A Dihybrid cross involves two traits.
• Mendel’s dihybrid crosses with heterozygous
plants yielded a 9:3:3:1 phenotypic ratio.
• Mendel’s dihybrid crosses
led to his second law,
the law of independent
assortment.
• The law of independent
assortment states that
allele pairs separate
independently of each
other during meiosis.
Dihybrid Cross:
a cross that shows the possible offspring for
two traits
Fur Color:
B: Black
b: White
Coat Texture:
R: Rough
r: Smooth
In this example, we will cross a
heterozygous individual with another
heterozygous individual. Their
genotypes will be:
BbRr x BbRr
Dihybrid Cross
BbRr x BbRr
First, you must find ALL possible gametes that
can be made from each parent.
Remember, each gamete must have one B and
one R.
You will combine your genotype and
phenotype results (heterozygous fur color)

Heredity – biological means of
obtaining your genes
Theory of Blending Inheritance – people up
through the 1800s believed that people are a
blending mixture of the mom and dad
- support – facial features appear
- But you are not an average of your parents
– not an average of their height, hair color,
eye color, etc.
MENDEL’S RESEARCH APPROACH
Gregor Mendel
(1822–1884)
Three features of Mendel’s
methodical research were
critical to its success.
THE ‘FATHER OF GENETICS’. 1800s A monk in modern day Czech
republic. He was the first to apply math to inheritance, however, he did
not know about DNA. His work is the mechanism that supports
Darwin’s Natural Selection Theory.
Why was Mendel so successful?
1. Preliminary investigations were carried out to obtain
familiarity with the experimental organism.
2. All experiments were carefully planned.
3. Meticulous care was taken in carrying out all techniques.
4. Accurate records were kept of all the results.
5. Sufficient data were obtained to have statistical significance.
As Mendel stated, "The value of utility of any experiment are
determined by the fitness of the material to the purpose for
which it is used."

plants with truebreeding whiteflower plants.
True-breeding
purple-flower plant
F 1 OR
FILIAL
GENERATION
The purple-colored
flower is the
dominant trait,
while the whitecolored flower is a
recessive trait.
2
Then, Mendel
crossed two of
the purple-flower
offspring.
True-breeding
white-flower plant
All offspring have purple flowers.
DOMINANT AND RECESSIVE TRAITS
The purple-colored
flower is the dominant
trait, while the whitecolored flower is a
recessive trait.
All offspring have purple flowers.
Then, Mendel
2 crossed two of
the purpleflower
offspring.
Most offspring have purple flowers,
but some have white flowers.
F2
GENERATION

The recessive trait for the white-colored
flower must have been lurking in the previous
generation, even though it is not visible.
MENDEL’S 2 LAWS:
1ST LAW : LAW OF SEGREGATION
According to Mendel’s law of segregation, only
one of the two alleles for a gene is put into a
gamete. At fertilization, offspring receive from
each parent one allele for each gene.
Heterozygous
pea plant
Two different
alleles
(white, purple)
for the same
gene
(flower color)
MEIOSIS Each gamete gets one copy of each gene.
Heterozygous

FERTILIZATION Each fertilized egg gets two copies of each gene.
Homozygous Heterozygous

OF THE OFFSPRING FROM FERTILIZATION
MENDEL’S LAW OF INDEPENDENT ASSORTMENT
Mendel’s law of independent assortment states that one trait does not
influence the inheritance of another trait.
