  1. Applying Mendel’s Principles

  2. Learning Objectives • Explain how geneticists use the principles of probability to make Punnett squares. • Explain the principle of independent assortment. • Explain how Mendel’s principles apply to all organisms.

  3. Warm up 1/6/15 • Define theses terms • Homozygous • Heterozygous • Phenotype • Genotype • Independent assortment

  4. Determining Probability Probability: the likelihood an event will occur Probability of either outcome: Three coin tosses? Each flip is an independent event. 50% or 1/2 1/2 × 1/2 × 1/2 = 1/8

  5. Using Segregation to Predict Outcomes Probability of a gamete receiving a T? 50%, or 1/2 Probability of gamete receiving a t? 50%, or 1/2 3/4 Probability of tall offspring is . Probability of short offspring is . 1/4

  6. Genotype and Phenotype Phenotype: physical traits Genotype: genetic makeup Two organisms may share the same but have different . phenotype genotypes

  7. Heterozygous and Homozygous Homozygous: has two identical alleles for a gene Heterozygous: has two different alleles for a gene Which are: homozygous? heterozygous? 1, 4 2, 3 4 1 3 2

  8. Making a Punnett Square: One Factor A cross of ospreys: beak size (B, b) Combine gamete genotypes Possible gametes Gametes for a parent along one side

  9. Making a Punnett Square: Two Factors A cross of pea plants: size (T, t) and pod color (G, g) Combine gamete genotypes All possible gametes All gametes for a parent along one side

  10. The Two-Factor Cross: F1

  11. The Two-Factor Cross: F2 Independent assortment: Genes for different traits can segregate independently during gamete formation. 9:3:3:1 ratio of phenotypes

  12. Summary of Mendel’s Principles, Part I Inheritance is determined by units called , which are passed from parents to offspring. Where more than one form of a gene for a single trait exists, some alleles may be and others . genes dominant recessive

  13. Summary Mendel’s Principles, Part II Each adult has two copies of each gene—one from each parent. These genes from each other when gametes are formed. Alleles for different genes usually segregate of each other. segregate independently
