  2. X First Generation (F1) X 100% pink!!! Second Generation (F2) How did this happen? 3 pink, 1 blue - ¾ pink(75%), ¼ blue (25%)

  3. Genetics!!! Section 11-1 • Patterns of Inheritance • You inherit traits(physical characteristics)from your parents-Heredity! • Heredity is what makes you unique • Examples of Traits: • Blue, Green, Brown, Black, Hazel Eye color • Genetics = the scientific study of heredityand its importance in biology

  4. Gregor Mendel • Gregor Mendel (1822), an Austrian monk who studied inheritance patterns in pea plants, his work is now considered the foundation of modern genetics • He worked with ordinary garden peas, planted in the garden at his monastery.

  5. What Mendel Found • Mendel studied 7 different pea plant traits that varied from one individual plant to the next (like human traits!) • These traits had 2 forms, such as either green seeds or yellow seeds, smooth pods or wrinkled pods • He crossed plants with each of the 7 contrasting characteristics and studied their offspring • P = represents theparent generation • F (from the Latin word fillius and filia- son and daughter) are the offspring • F1 = first generation • F2 = second generation • Hybrids =offspring of crosses between parents with different traits

  8. Mendel’s Results All the F1 plants expressed only the dominant trait!

  9. Mendel’s Principles of Heredity Hello! • Mendel learned 2 principles from these experiments: • Biological inheritance is determined by factors (we call them genes) that are passed from one generation to the next, Genes = chemical factors that determine traits – each trait is controlled by 1 genethat occurs in 2 contrasting formsor alleles Allele = a different form of a gene • 2. Principle of Dominance: some alleles are dominant and others are recessive

  10. Principle of Dominance • An organism with a dominant allele for a particular form of a trait will always exhibit that form of the trait • In other words, if you have the dominant allele, you will express that dominant trait • An organism with a recessive allele for a particular form of a trait will exhibit that form only when the dominant allele is not present • In other words, you must have 2 recessive alleles to express the recessive trait I’m Dominant!! Tall = TT or Tt Short = tt Eeek!

  11. Where did the recessive traits go? • Mendel wanted to know why all his F1 plants expressed only dominant traits ????? • He wondered, “Had all the recessive traits disappeared? Or were they still present in the F1 plants?” • To answer this question, he allowed his F1 plants to self-pollinate F1 XF1 F2

  13. Mendel’s Experiment F1 generation F2 generation P generation tall short tall tall tall tall tall short

  14. F1 Cross • Mendel thought the results for his F1 cross were amazing! • All the recessive traits re-appeared in the F2 offspring!
