Inheritance Patterns &
Human Genetics
Chapter 12
Chromosomes &
Inheritance
Section 12.1
What makes human males different than females?

Sex chromosomes (X and Y)



Male: XY
Female: XX
Gametes:


Egg: carry only X
Sperm: carry either X or Y
Who Discovered Sex Chromosomes?

Thomas Morgan



Early 1900s
Geneticist, embryologist, evolutionary
biologist, Columbia University (USA)
Worked with fruit flies; discovered the role
chromosomes play in inheritance
Sex Linkage:

When genes are found on the sex chromosomes

X-linked Genes: genes on the X chromosome

Y-linked Genes: genes on the Y chromosome
Sex Linked Traits


Most sex linked genes
are found on the X
chromosome
Only genes on the Y
chromosome are for
male reproductive
organ development
Sex Linked Genetic Problems

In flies: R = red eyes, r = white eyes

Linkage Groups


Genes located on the same chromosome
and therefore inherited together
Goes against Mendel’s Law of
Independent Assortment
How do linked genes get
“unlinked”?


Crossing Over
The frequency of
crossing over
between certain
genes is used to
make a chromosome
map

Which two genes have the highest probability
of crossing over? The lowest?
a

b
B
Highest: A & C
Lowest: A & B

Sex Linkage Problems!!!!
Use these genotypic symbols for the sex
linked trait of red-green color blindness in
humans to solve the problems that follow.





"Normal" female = XBXB
Carrier female = XBXb
Color-blind female = XbXb
Normal male = XBY
Color-blind Male = XbY
1) A normal female marries a color blind
male. What are the chances that the
offspring will be color blind if they are
females? What are the chances that the
offspring will be color blind if they are
males?
2) A color blind female marries a normal
male. How many of the female offspring
will be carriers of the color blind allele?
3) A man whose mother is color blind
marries a woman with normal vision. What
is the genotype of the husband? What
percent of their offspring can be expected
to be color blind? What percentage of
their offspring can be expected to be
carriers?
How do biologist keep track of inherited
traits over generations in a family?

Pedigree (page 241)
Pedigree Key

Affected male

Let’s try a pedigree problem!

R = Tongue Roller
r = No Tongue Roller
John Jones, a tongue roller, marries Jill Smith, a
woman that cannot roll her tongue. John and
Jill have four children that can each roll their
tongue: John Jr., Alice, Lisa, and Sean. John Jr.
later marries non-tongue roller Pamela, and
they have four children: Jessica, Sherri, Mary,
and John III. Sherri and Mary both can roll
their tongues, and Jessica and John III are
non-tongue rollers. Sean marries Robin, a nontongue roller. Both Robin’s parents are nontongue rollers also. Sean and Robin have four
children: Nicholas, Harry, Donna, and Sean Jr.
Nicholas, Harry and Donna each have the
ability to roll their tongues. Sean Jr. cannot.

1. Single Allele Trait

A trait that is controlled by a single allele
of a gene

Normal dominant-recessive (Mendel)

Example Genetic Disorders:


Huntington’s Disease (autosomal dominant)
Cystic Fibrosis (autosomal recessive)
2. Multiple Allele Trait


3 or more alleles of the same gene code
for a single trait
Example: ABO Blood Type
IA = type A (dominant)
IB = type B (dominant)
i = type O (recessive)
Blood Type Problems




If a person is type A blood….what is his/her
genotype?
IAIA or IAi
If a person is type B blood….what is his/her
genotype?
IBIB or IBi
If a person is type O blood….what is his/her
genotype?
ii
If a person is type AB blood….what is his/her
genotype?

A mother gives birth to a type O child.
The mother is type A blood. The two
potential fathers are type A (father 1) and
type AB (father 2).
Who’s the daddy?
Blood Type Problems #2


Pretend that Mark is homozygous for
blood type “A” allele, and Mary is type
“O”.
What are all the possible blood types of
their baby?
3. Polygenic Trait

Trait that is controlled by 2 or more genes

Range of phenotypes


Influenced by environmental factors too
Examples:
skin color
eye color
human height
4. X-Linked Trait


Trait controlled by a gene on the X
chromosome
Examples:
colorblindness (recessive)
hemophilia (recessive)
Hemophilia Pedigree
5. Nondisjunction

The failure of chromosomes to separate
during meiosis resulting in one gamete
with too many chromosomes and one
gamete with too few chromosomes
Trisomy
Monosomy



Trisomy: cell with 3 copies of a
chromosome (too many chromosomes)
Monosomy: cell with 1 copy of a
chromosome (too few chromosome)
Example Genetic Disorders:
Down Syndrome (Tri-21)
Klinefelter’s Syndrome (XXY)
Turner’s Syndrome (X__)
Blood Typing Lab!
Background
Blood is a tissue comprised of 4 components:
plasma, red and white blood cells, and platelets.
Plasma is a clear straw-colored liquid portion that
makes up 55% of the blood. It contains a
number of blood-clotting chemicals that help stop
bleeding. Red and white blood cells and platelets
make up the remaining 45% of the blood. Red
blood cells are tiny biconcave discs. Each red
blood cell contains the oxygen-binding protein,
hemoglobin. Hemoglobin contains 4 iron ions
with bind with oxygen and carbon dioxide.


Blood functions principally as a vehicle with transports
gases, metabolic waste products and hormones
throughout the body. As blood passes through the
lungs, oxygen molecules attach to the hemoglobin. As
blood passes through the body’s tissues in capillary
beds, the hemoglobin releases the oxygen. Carbon
dioxide and other waste gases are, in turn,
transported by the hemoglobin back to the lungs.
Thereafter the process is repeated.
Mutations that Lead to Genetic
Disorders:



Mutation: a change in the DNA of an
organism
Can involve an entire chromosome or a
single nucleotide
Can lead to genetic disorders
Mutation Types
1.
Germ-cell mutation: occurs in the germ
cells (gametes)


2.
Somatic-cell mutation: occurs in the
organism’s body cells


3.
Does not affect the organism
Does affect the organism’s offspring
Does affect the organism
Does not affect the organism’s offspring
Lethal mutation: causes death, often
before birth
4.
Chromosome mutation: change in the
structure of a chromosome
a. Deletion – loss of a piece of chromosome
b. Inversion- segments of chromosome breaks
off, flips, and reattaches
c. Translocation- piece of chromosome breaks off
and attaches to another chromosome
d. Nondisjunction- chromosome fails to separate
during meiosis
Deletion
Translocation
Inversion
Nondisjunction
5. Gene mutation: involves large segments
of DNA or a single nucleotide of DNA
a. Point mutation: single
nucleotide mutation within a
codon (substitution,
addition, or deletion)
b. Frame shift mutation:
cause the misreading of
codons during translation
thus making the wrong
protein (insertion or
deletion)
