CHAPTER 11
GENETICS
Genetic discoveries 45 minutes
11.1 The work of Gregor Mendel


Genetics = the study of heredity (passing down of
characteristics from parent to offspring)
Gregor Mendel = “the father of genetics”
 Born
in 1822 – Austrian monk
 Worked with pea plants that were self-pollinating and
true-breeding (the offspring always looked like the
parent)
Mendel’s Pea Plants

Mendel cross pollinated his true-breeding plants
Peas


The original pair of plants is called the P (parental
generation)
The offspring are called the F1 (first filial
generation)

Hybrids = offspring of crosses between parents with
different characteristics
Important Genetic Terms



Trait = a specific characteristic (pea color, hair color)
Gene = the factors that are passed from parent to
offspring
Allele = the different forms of a gene
Mendel’s Conclusions


An individual’s characteristics are determined by
factors (genes) that are passed from one parental
generation to the next
Principle of dominance = some alleles are
dominant and some are recessive
 Dominant
= need one allele (form of the gene) for the
trait to be expressed
 Recessive = need two alleles for the trait to be
expressed
Height in Peas
Segregation




Gametes = reproductive cells
(sperm, egg, pollen, ovule)
During the formation of gametes,
the alleles for the trait separate
from each other
Each gamete gets 1 allele (copy
of the gene)
When fertilization occurs – the
plant gets one allele from each
parent (2 total)
11.2 Applying Mendel’s Principles

Mendelian genetics is based on probability = the
likelihood that an event would occur
Genetics and probability



Dominant alleles are written
in upper case T = tall
Recessive alleles are written
in lower case t = short
In this example:
 There
is a 50% chance that
the plant the offspring will get
a “T” allele
 There is a 50% chance the
plant will get a “t” allele
Even more genetic terminology

Genotype = the genetic
makeup of an organism
 Homozygous
= organisms that
have two identical alleles for a
gene (BB or bb)
 Heterozygous = organisms that
have two different alleles for a
gene (Bb)

Phenotype = the physical
appearance of an organism
Oh no! You need to think!!!!
For each example, write the genotype and
phenotype.
1) The Rr flower
Rr
Genotype ____________
Purple
Phenotype____________
2) The rr flower
rr
Genotype ____________
white
Phenotype ____________

Punnett Squares

Punnett squares = a diagram that uses probability
to predict the possible genotype and phenotype
combination in crosses
T = tall
t = small
(choose a letter from the
dominant allele)
Monohybrid cross
In peas, yellow seeds are dominant to green.
Complete the following cross Yy x yy
1) Make a key – yellow = ____
green = ____
2) Parental genotypes – if not given
yy x Yy
Y
y
y
Yy
yy
y
Yy
yy
3) Set up the Punnett square
4) Figure out the phenotypic and
genotypic ratio
1 yellow : 1 green
Phenotypic ratio - _______________________
1 Yy : 1 yy
Genotypic ratio - _______________________
Dihybrid cross


When there are 2 traits it is a dihybrid cross.
Genes for different traits can segregate
independently during the formation of gametes
Dihybrid cross
EXAMPLE PROBLEM
Cross two plants that are heterozygous for height
and pod color. Tall is dominant to short and green
pods are dominant to yellow
Step 1 – Make a key and determine the parents
Tall = T
Green = G
Short = t
Yellow = g
Step 2 – Write the genotypes of the parents

TtGg x TtGg
Dihybrid cross
Step 3 – Determine the possible allele combinations
for the gametes
Step 4 – Set up the 16 square Punnett square
Dihybrid cross example
Step 5 – Complete the Punnett square
Step 6 – Determine the phenotypic ratio
9 tall green: 3 tall yellow: 3 short green: 1 short yellow
11.3 Exceptions to Mendel’s rules




Incomplete Dominance
Codominance
Multiple Alleles
Polygenic Traits
Incomplete Dominance

Incomplete dominance = one allele is not completely
dominant over another
 Phenotype
is a combination of the two alleles
EXAMPLE: Four o’clock flowers
R = Red
W = White
What are the genotypes of the following?
RR
WW
RW
Red _____
White ______
Pink______
What are the phenotypes of the following?
Red
Pink
White
RR _________
RW________
WW_______
Cross a white flower with a red flower
Codominance

Codominance = both alleles are seen in phenotype
The phenotype shows each allele NOT a combination
Example – Some varieties of chickens
W = White
B = Black

WW = White BB = Black
BW = Black AND White
What is the phenotypic ratio when you cross two BW
chickens?????
1 Black : 2 Black and White : 1 White
Multiple Alleles

Multiple alleles = there are more than 2 alleles for
a trait
 Example
– rabbit's fur color, human blood types
Disorders caused by individual genes –
codominant and multiple alleles

ABO Blood Types
(IA) and B (IB) are codominant
 O (i) is recessive
A
Polygenic Traits

Polygenic trait = traits produced by more than one
gene
 Examples
– human skin color and height
Genes and the Environment

Genes provide a plan for development, but
environment also plays a role in phenotype
11.4 Meiosis

Meiosis = the process in which the number of
chromosomes per cell is cut in half
 Occurs
through separation of homologous chromosomes
(matching chromosomes from a female and male parent)
 Creates gametes (sex cells – sperm, eggs, pollen, etc.)
Diploid= a cell that contains both sets of
homologous chromosomes (2N)
 Haploid = a cell that contains
a single set of chromosomes (N)

Meiosis


Meiosis has two divisions (before meiosis 1 the cell is
in interphase and replicates the chromosomes)
 Meiosis
I
 Prophase
1
 Metaphase 1
 Anaphase 1
 Telophase 1
 Meiosis
2
 Prophase
2
 Metaphase 2
 Anaphase 2
 Telophase 2
Meiosis 1

Prophase1
 Each
chromosome matches with its holomogous
chromosome (forms a tetrad)
 Crossing over occurs (chromatids cross
over and exchange ends)
Meiosis 1 cont.

Metaphase 1
 Homologous
chromosomes line up
in the center of the cell

Anaphase 1
 Homologous
chromosomes are
pulled toward opposite ends of
the cell by spindle fibers

Telophase 1
 Nuclear
membrane forms around
each nucleus
 Cytokinesis follows
The end of Meiosis 1

At the end of meiosis 1 there are two daughter cells
 Each
has 1 set of chromosomes (is haploid)
 Chromosomes
do not replicate before Meiosis II
Meiosis II

Prophase II
 Chromosomes

become visible
Metaphase II
 Chromosomes
line up at the
center of the cell

Anaphase II
 Chromatids

separate
Telophase II
 The
nuclear membrane reforms
The result of Meiosis


The result of meiosis is 4 haploid (N) daughter cells
In our example each cells has 2 chromosomes (1/2
of the starting number)
ORIGINAL CELL
4 DAUGHTER CELLS
Comparing Mitosis and Meiosis
End of
Meiosis I
Mitosis ends with 2 genetically
identical diploid daughter cells
End of
Meiosis II
Meiosis ends with 4 genetically
different haploid cells
Gene linkage



Alleles of different genes tend to be inherited
together when those genes are located on the same
chromosome (linked)
Chromosomes assort independently
Gene maps = location of genes on a chromosome
Crossovers between genes that are close are rare
 More crossing occurs with genes that are farther apart
 Researchers looked at data
to determine location of genes

