Mendelian Genetics: Front
1. Define:
-Gregor Mendel: The “Father of Genetics”
-Gene: a unit of inheritance that usually is directly responsible for one trait or character
-Allele: the different or alternate form of a gene
-Homozygous: When homologous chromosomes have the same allele at a given locus it is called
-Heterozygous: the different or alternate form of a gene.
-Dominant: is expressed no matter what the second allele is
-Recessive: is only expressed when the second allele is the same
-Haploid: term used to refer to a cell that contains only a single set of chromosomes and therefore only
one set of chromosomes (1N)
-Diploid: term used to refer to a cell that contains both sets of homologous chromosomes (2N)
2. A man who is heterozygous for free earlobes marries a woman who has attached earlobes.
Free ears = E, attached ears = e Parental Genotypes: Ee x ee

Mendelian Genetics- Back
1. Practice the FOIL method to determine the possible gamete combinations for the following parental
genotypes:
a) RrYy __RY, Ry, rY, ry___ b) FFBb ___FB, Fb, ________
c) ttGG _____tG________ d) AaBb __AB, Ab, aB, ab____
2. Work out the genotype AND phenotype ratio for the cross between two parents who are: RrYy and
RrYY.
