  1. TOPIC: GeneticsAIM: What is the gene chromosome theory? How do genetic disorders occur?

  2. TOPIC:Genetics AIM: How do genetic disorders occur? DO NOW: Write the complimentary DNA strand that would be attached to the one below: C T A A C C G A G

  3. Chromosomes & Genes… • The human DNA code is made up of about three thousand million A,T, C, and Gs on each side of the DNA strand. • If one were to recite the ATCG sequence in one's DNA which is 3 billion long and would utter at a rate of 100 ATCG sequences per minute without taking a break for sleeping, eating or drinking, one would speak for 57 long years.

  4. Genetics: chromosomes & inheritance Untitled Page

  5. Sex chromosomes 2 of 46 in each cell

  6. X & Y • Eggs = X • Sperm = X or Y

  7. XX = female • XY = male

  8. Male chromosomes Female chromosomes

  9. inherited diseases Genetic disorders Caused by genetic mistake Caused by mutations

  10. mutation Change in gene or chromosome  new trait

  11. Can only be passed on to offspring if in sex cells

  12. Duplication Deletion

  13. Insertion

  14. Translocation

  15. Examples: 1. Addition: GTACA  GTGCA 2. Insertion: ATG GTC  AAT GGT C 3. Deletion: ATG GTC TCA AGG TCT CA

  16. Nondisjunction = Chromosomes don’t separate properly during meiosis

  17. RESULT: some cells have too many, some cells have too little

  18. Harmful Mutations May cause various diseases & disorders

  19. Helpful mutations Cause desirable traits Examples:

  20. Potatoes= • Resistant to disease • Look and taste better

  21. Bacteria = • Become more resistant to antibiotics that kill them

  22. Seedless oranges

  23. Bardet-Biedl Syndrome is a rare genetic disorder that affects many parts of the body. Only about 1 in 100,000 children have the disease, but those who do have it have multiple disorders in development throughout their bodies.

  24. A kitten named Cy was born with a defect called holoprosencephaly. Animals born with holoprosencephaly are born with one eye and an unformed brain. Little Cy, adorable despite his deformity, sadly lived less than twenty-four hours after his birth.

  25. A piglet owned by Llu Shuping, a pig farmer in Northwest China, has one head, two mouths, two noses, and three eyes. In China the little misfit is a television celebrity.

  26. A two-headed turtle calls an Aquarium in Pennsylvania home.

  27. A genetic mutation has left this small kitten born in Perth, WI with two complete faces. Despite its deformities it is an affectionate kitten that constantly purrs with happiness.

  28. The two-headed calf born in Iowa, US in April 1998 had four eyes and three ears and was appropriately named Reflections.

  29. Two-headed python One-eyed frog

  30. Three-legged duck Five-legged lamb

  31. Venus Fly Trap with 2 traps Frog With Mutation

  32. Six-legged fawn

  33. Left: A normal fruit fly Right: A fruit fly with its legs growing out of its head. This is a mutation caused by radiation.

  34. Genetic Disorders

  35. 1. Sickle cell anemia Blood disorder Caused by mutation Red blood cells change shape

  36. Cannot obtain enough oxygen • Clump together and clog up blood vessels

  37. 2. Down Syndrome Caused by NONDISJUNCTION Extra copy of chromosome 21 Trisomy 21

  38. Down syndrome (DS) causes delays in the way a child develops, and often leads to mental retardation, which means they may have trouble learning. It affects 1 in every 800 babies born. You have probably seen people who have DS. They have certain physical features, such as a flatter face & upward slanting eyes. It's important to note, though, that not all people with DS look alike or have all these features. They may have medical problems such as heart defects. Kids with DS can go to regular schools, make friends, enjoy life, and get jobs when they're older. DS affects kids' abilities in different ways. Kids with DS can and do learn, and are capable of developing skills throughout their lives. They simply reach goals at a different pace. Kids with DS have a wide range of abilities, and there's no way to tell at birth what they will be capable of as they grow up.

  39. How can genetic disorders be detected?

  40. 1. AMNIOCENTESIS = Long needle removes amniotic fluid Fetal cells are tested

  41. 2. KARYOTYPE = Picture of all chromosomes in a cell

  42. Female = XX

  43. Male = XY
