  1. SBI3U: Grade 11 Biology Genetic processes

  2. Big Ideas, Ministry Expectations • Genetic and genomic research can have social and environmental implications • Variability and diversity of living organisms result from the distribution of genetic materials during the process of meiosis

  3. Misconceptions – Topics Genetic Technologies – greatest # of misconceptions • Genetic research works to cure disease, in reality the focus is in understanding to improve treatment

  4. Misconceptions - Topics Deterministic nature of genes – • 1 gene is always responsible for 1 trait OR 1 mutation always causes 1 disease • The discovery of genes that convey and determine a specific phenotype is often displayed in the media • i.e. “Turning Off Suspect Gene Makes Mice Smarter” • However, it is rare for a single gene to have complete control over a phenotype. Instead, multiple factors contribute to phenotype. Multiple genes often work together with the environment to determine ultimate phenotype.

  5. Misconceptions - Topics Nature of Genes and Genetic Material – • Lower organisms, including bacteria and fungi, often do not carry DNA due to the hierarchical organization of genetic material • Unable to accurately define DNA, genes, & chromosomes (terms used interchangeably)

  6. Misconceptions – Topics • Genetic Basis of disease – • Confusion of “heredity” and “genetic” when describing diseases • Students completely misrepresented the genetic nature of specific illnesses • i.e. calling HIV an inherited disorder • In reality, while most illnesses have a genetic component, this does not make them hereditary

  7. Misconceptions – Topics Reproductive technologies – • In future, parents would have reproductive control to ‘improve’ and ‘design’ their offspring to create the ‘perfect child’ • Reality is, this does not reflect the goals or ongoing work of genetics research

  8. Misconceptions – Quotes from Students “If you were to have three chromosomes instead of the normal two, that child will have Down syndrome.” Correct conception: • Humans have 23 pairs of chromosomes. Only an extra copy of chromosome 21 causes Down Syndrome.

  9. Misconceptions – Quotes from Students “Half of your DNA is determined by your mother’s side, and half is by your father. So, say, if you seem to look exactly like your mother, and had gotten all phenotypes from her, perhaps some DNA that codes for your body and how your organs run was copied from your father’s genetic makeup.” Correct conception: • Each cell in the body contains two copies of each chromosome, and therefore each gene, one copy from the mother and the other from the father. Both alleles may contribute to all attributes/traits that are generally controlled. Moreover, most gene products (proteins) interact with other genes and do not act in isolation.

  10. Misconceptions – Quotes from Students “Genes determine everything from your sex, and hair colour, to what diseases you may have and how high you will grow.” Correct conception: • Genes are not necessarily deterministic. More frequently, environmental influences couples with genotype determined phenotype.

  11. Misconceptions – Quotes from Students “If everyone on both sides of your family is tall, you are going to be tall. If half are tall and half are short, you have a 50/50 chance of being either tall or short. You also have the possibility of being somewhere in the middle.” Correct conception: • This quotation appears to assume that single genes (perhaps taken from a simple Punnet square idea) determine height. Indeed, multiple genes, nutrition and environment all play a role.

  12. Misconceptions – Quotes from Students “All humans have DNA, as do animals, plants, and most bacteria and fungi.” Correct conception: • All living organisms, including bacteria and fungi, have DNA.

  13. Misconceptions – Quotes from Students “In the future knowledge about genetics could help stop deadly diseases and cancers. However this will only help with diseases that are hereditary” Correct conception: • Most illnesses have a genetic component without being hereditary. Therefore, a knowledge of genetics could have much further reach than this student recognizes. Indeed, the knowledge of the genetics of different viruses, for example, has resulted in vaccines for strains of influenza.

  33. Activity 1 Wet lab – DNA Extraction

  34. OBJECTIVE • To extract DNA from kiwi fruit.

  35. MATERIALS • ¼ of a Kiwi Fruit (skinned) • Ziploc Plastic bags • 100mL Beaker (2) • 1 tbsp. Transparent Liquid Dish Soap • ¼ tsp. Salt • 50mL Water • Stirring Rods • Filter • 25mL Ethanol (Ice Cold) • Pipette or Medicine Dropper • Micro Centrifuge

  36. PROCEDURE • Put ¼ of a Kiwi Fruit in a Ziploc Bag, seal the bag, and squish the kiwi with your fingers. • In a 100ml beaker, combine 1 tbsp. transparent liquid dish soap and ¼ tsp. Salt. Add 50ml water to the beaker and stir slowly to dissolve the salt and soap. Avoid making bubbles or foam. • Add this mixture to the kiwi fruit in the Ziploc bag. • Squish the kiwi and mixture together in the bag to combine.  • Rinse out the beaker and put a filter across the top.

  37. PROCEDURE continued • Gently pour the kiwi solution through the filter into the beaker until the beaker is ½ full of the solution.   • Holding the beaker slightly on an angle, pour ethanol onto the wall of the beaker to add it to the kiwi solution. Add ethanol until the beaker is ¾ full. • Let the mixture sit for a couple minutes and observe. Record your observations below. • Using the pipette, extract the precipitate into the micro centrifuge. (One per person.) • Clean-up: • Dispose of filters and Ziploc Bags • Rinse beakers, pipettes, and stirring rods • Return all materials to their original location

  38. DISCUSSION QUESTIONS • Where can DNA be found in the cell? • The nucleus

  39. DISCUSSION QUESTIONS 2. Discuss the role of the soap on the cell. What is the purpose of soap in this lab? • Soap breaks down the fatty lipid bilayer of the cell membrane and nuclear membrane to release the DNA into the solution by disrupting the polar interactions that hold the cell membrane together. The soap forms compounds with the lipids which cause the, to precipitate out of the solution.

  40. DISCUSSION QUESTIONS 3. What is the purpose of salt in this lab? • Salt shields the negative phosphate ends of the DNA, allowing DNA to come together and precipitate our of the cold alcohol solution. Salt, when diluted in water, produces sodium chloride which precipitates the proteins and carbohydrates. This occurs because the sodium and chloride ions are more charged and much more polar than the proteins and carbohydrates, therefore they displace them out of the solution.

  41. DISCUSSION QUESTIONS 4. Why was the cold ethanol added to the kiwi solution? • The ethanol precipitates the DNA while leaving other substances in the solution.

  42. Activity 2 Dry Lab – Design a Dragon

  43. Overview • In this activity, you will design a dragon using pre-determined genotypes and phenotypes.

  44. Let’s get started! • Determine the biological sex of your dragon by flipping a coin. Heads is female and tails is male. _____________________________

  45. What will my dragon look like? • For the rest of the activity, you will flip a coin to determine what characteristics your dragon will have.

  46. Chromosome 1 and Chromosome 2 • The traits determined by Chromosome 1 and Chromosome 2 are dominant, recessive, incomplete dominance or co-dominance and are outlined in the tables on the next slide. • Flip a coin to determine if the allele is dominant or recessive. Heads is dominant and tails is recessive. You will need to flip the coin twice since the above traits are determined by two alleles. Fill in the chart below.
