HONORS BIOLOGY UNIT GUIDE Mendelian Genetics (Chapter 9) Unit Essential Question(s) How do Mendel’s Laws of inheritance explain how traits are passed from one generation to the next? How can probability be used to predict the probable outcome of a genetic cross? How can genetic traits be tracked through generations using family pedigrees? What are the variations to Mendel’s Laws? How can patterns of inheritance be explained using a knowledge of chromosomes? Pennsylvania Academic Standards - Science & Technology 3.3.10.C. Describe how genetic information is inherited and expressed Essential Content and Skills (“Upon completion of this unit I should understand and/or be able to…”) YES…I Can! Define the key terms from Chapter 9. (Bold terms from text in sections covered) Explain Gregor Mendel’s contributions to the study of genetics. (9.1-9.7) Describe Mendel’s two Laws: The Law of Segregation and the Law of Independent Assortment. (9.3-9.6) Relate Mendel’s results to the laws of probability (9.7) Differentiate between genotype and phenotype. (9.3) Compare and contrast dominant vs recessive disorders. (9.9) Describe how pedigrees can be used to trace patterns of inheritance between generations. (9.89.9) Explain the variations in Mendel’s Laws including: incomplete dominance, codominance, and multiple alleles. (9.11-9.12) Describe the effects of genotype on phenotype. Specifically, how multiple genes can affect a single trait, and how a single gene can affect more than one trait. (9.13-9.14) Explain Mendel’s Laws using a knowledge of chromosomes. (9.16-9.19) Explain the unique patterns of inheritance related to sex-linked traits. (9.20-9.22)
