Objectives 1. SWBAT hypothesize about the birth of

two twin boys. 2. SWBAT define homozygous,

heterozygous, gene, allele, and cross pollination

3. SWBAT discuss Mendel’s life and the importance of his study of pea plants.

The Problem…. Born October of 2006: These two boys are related… They are

twins. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/15447465/

Another Example…

How Can this be? Let’s Brainstorm.

Goal of this chapter on Genetics:

1866 Gregor Mendel “Father of Genetics” Austrian Monk that studied pea plants

Pure breeds Self Fertilization

Statistician who wanted to be a teacher

Discovered how traits were inherited in a population

How Genetics Began The passing of traits to the next

generation - inheritance or heredity.

Mendel performed cross-pollination in pea plants.

Mendel followed various traits in the pea plants he bred.

7 Traits Mendel Studied

Mendel studied seven different traits.

Seed or pea color Flower color Seed pod color Seed shape or texture Seed pod shape Stem length Flower position

Definitions Genetics:

Study of hereditary Gene:

Strand of DNA that codes for a protein (Trait) Allele:

A version of a gene

Phenotype vs. Genotype Phenotype:

Physical characteristics (What the individual looks like)

Ex) Red Petals

Genotype: Alleles Received (genes you have) Ex) RR

Homozygous and Heterozygous Homozygous:

Having two of the same alleles for a particular trait

Ex.

Heterozygous: Having two different alleles for a particular

trait Ex.

Dominant Vs. Recessive Dominant hides the recessive trait in the

heterozygous genotype.

Think – Pair - Share If Fred Flintstone is heterozygous for black hair. (B=Black, b=blonde)

What is Fred’s genotype?

What is Fred’s phenotype?

Tweety bird is yy. (Y= yellow feathers, y=brown feathers) 1. What is his genotype?

3. Is he heterozygous or homozygous? Explain.

Objectives 1. SWBAT do a probability lab in which

they flip a coin to determine the outcome of crosses.

2. SWBAT will work in partners to create punnett squares.

Do Now Provide an example of the following

terms: Heterozygous Homozygous Genotype Phenotype Dominant Recessive Allele Gene

Mendels 3 Laws 1. Law of Segregation

Each allele a person has separates into different gametes

Ex. Ww – one W goes in one sperm and the other w goes into another sperm w W

w WSperm

Mendels 3 Laws 2. Law of

Independent Assortment Gene pairs

(homologous) will separate randomly into gametes

Mendels 3 Laws 3. Law of Dominance

Traits exist in two possible forms (dominant and recessive)

The dominant forms hides the recessive trait in the heterozygous condition

Monohybrid Cross R= Can roll your tongue r= Can’t roll your tongue

r

Genotypic vs. Phenotypic Ratios Phenotype Ratio:

Ratio of different physical traits Ex) Brown eyes ¼ or 25%

Genotype Ratio: Ratio of the different possible alleles Ex) Tt = ¼ or 25%

Sample Problems1) Daffy Duck is heterozygous for black

feathers. Daisy Duck is homozygous for yellow feathers. Set up a punnett square and determine probabilities of their potential offspring. (Both genotype and phenotype ratios!)

charming is heterozygous for no freckles. What are the chances of her children having freckles? Please show your work.

Setting up Dihybrid Crosses 1. Determine parent genotypes 2. Determine alleles to be passed down 3. Set up punnet square 4. Determine outcome

Phenotype Ratio Genotype Ratio

Dihybrid Crosses Looking at two different traits

Ex. Hair color and eye color

B=brown eyes b=blue eyes

R=Brown hair r=blonde hair

Mother is heterozygous for both traits Father is heterozygous for eye color and homozygous

dominant for hair color

The problem Aladdin and Jasmine want to have

children. Jasmine is homozygous dominant for black hair and black eyes.

Aladdin is homozygous recessive for brown eyes and brown hair.

B=black hair b=brown hairE=black eyes e=brown eyes

B=black hair b=brown hairE=black eyes e=brown eyes

Jasmine’s daughter falls in love with a man who is also heterozygous for hair and eye color. Determine possible genotype and phenotype ratios.

Do Now BbTt X BBTt

Math Method For a cross between TtBb and TtBB. Do each cross individually and multiply the

results together.

For TtBb

Do Now Mickey Mouse is heterozygous for Round ears

and homozygous for Black eyes. Minnie Mouse also is homozygous for Floppy ears and heterozygous for Black eyes. Determine genotype and phenotype ratios. (B=black, b=brown, R=round, r= floppy.)

What ratio of the dogs would have brown fur and floppy ears?

10.3 Gene Linkage and Polyploidy Several genes on a chromosome Gene Linkage:

When two genes are close to each other on the same chromosome

Gene Linkage Linked genes on a chromosome results in

an exception to Mendel’s law of independent assortment

Linked genes usually do not segregate independently

Drosophila (Fruit Flies) First organism with linked genes Linked genes typically travel together

during crossing over http://www.biologyreference.com/La-Ma/Li

nkage-and-Gene-Mapping.html

Chromosome Map Crossing over occurs more frequently

between genes that are far apart Map of genes on a chromosomes and

frequency of crossing over

Polyploidy Occurrence of one or more extra sets of all

chromosomes in an organism. Ex. A triploid organism (3n) - means that it

has three complete sets of chromosomes.

True or False – Correct false statements_______   1. Crossing over occurs more frequently

between genes that are close together on a chromosome.

11.1 Basic Pattern of Human Inheritance

Recessive Genetic Disorders Cystic Fibrosis Albinism Tay Sachs Disease Galactosemia

Affects the mucus-producing glands, digestive enzymes, and sweat glands

Chloride ions are not absorbed into the cells of a person with cystic fibrosis but are excreted in the sweat.

Without sufficient chloride ions in the cells, a thick mucus is secreted.

Cystic Fibrosis

Cystic Fibrosis Not too long ago CF was always fatal in

childhood, but better treatment methods developed over the past 20 years have increased the average lifespan of CF patients to nearly 30 years

Albinism Caused by altered genes, resulting in the

absence of the skin pigment melanin in hair and eyes

White hair Very pale skin Blue Eyes Pink pupils

Albinism Impaired Vision It is vital that people with

albinism use sunscreen when exposed to sunlight to prevent premature skin aging or skin cancer

High risk of skin cancer

Tay-Sachs Disease Caused by the absence of

the enzymes (in lysosomes) responsible for breaking down fatty acids called gangliosides

Gangliosides accumulate in the brain, inflating brain nerve cells and causing mental deterioration

Tay Sachs Disease Children with Tay-Sachs, a progressive

neurodegenerative disease that attacks nerve cells, usually die before age 5.

Children will go deaf, have seizures, and, ultimately, become unable to swallow or breathe.

Galactosemia Recessive genetic disorder characterized

by the inability of the body to digest galactose.

Lactose = Galactose + Glucose Symptoms: • liver damage or failure

• cataracts• brain damage• infection

Galactosemia Treatment requires the strict exclusion of

lactose/galactose from the diet.

Do Now Period 3

Dominant Genetic Disorders Dominant Gene results in disorder:

Huntington’s Disease Achondroplasia

Achondroplasia is a genetic condition that

causes small body size and limbs that are comparatively short.

Obesity Breathing problems (apnea) Recurrent ear infections

(otitis media). Other health problems

Matching Do Now Period 8

Huntington’s Disease affects the nervous system. Huntington's disease is a progressive,

degenerative disease that causes certain nerve cells in your brain to waste away.

As a result, you may experience uncontrolled movements, emotional disturbances and mental deterioration.

Huntington’s Disease Diminished memory,

immediate and short-term (long-term memory usually remains intact)

Disease usually manifests itself by age 35

Do Now Peter and Lois decide to try for a 4th child. Determine the possible genotype and

phenotype ratios of the following cross:

DdEe X ddEe

D= Brown hair d=red hair E=fluffy hair e=thinning hair

Do Now Explain how gene distances are

determined on a chromosome.

Pedigree Shows history of a trait in a family Allows researchers to analyze traits within

a family

Symbols for Pedigree

Using Pedigrees Inferring Genotypes

Knowing physical traits can determine what genes an individual is most likely to have.

Predicting Disorders Scientists use pedigree analysis to study: inheritance patterns determine phenotypes genotypes.

Sample Pedigree

Twin Studies

Helps scientists separate genetic contributions from environmental contributions

Traits that appear frequently in identical twins are at least partially controlled by heredity.

Traits expressed differently in identical twins are strongly influenced by environment.
