41 diapositives · 585 Views · Oct 05, 2012

Overview delves into the principles of Mendelian genetics, including fundamental concepts such as probability, mutations, Punnett squares, and genotypic and phenotypic ratios. Gain insight into alleles, traits, and inheritance patterns, exploring variations like codominance and the implications of genetic disorders. The material also covers essential terminology and concepts to assess risks of genetic conditions. Ideal for students and educators seeking to deepen their understanding of hereditary transmission and genetic variations in offspring.

  8. A trait that occurs in 500 individuals out of a total of 1,000 individuals has this probability (as a decimal)

  9. In a heterozygous cross, the probability of getting offspring that are homozygous recessive is this

  10. This is the genotypic ratio in a heterozygous cross

  11. This is the phenotypic ratio in a heterozygous cross

  12. This is the probability that the offspring of a cross between RR and rr will exhibit the dominant phenotype

  13. This is the generation that was obtained by crossing individuals of the P generation

  14. Mendel discovered this law by finding that different genes and traits separate independently of one another

  15. This law states that alleles of a gene separate from each other during meiosis

  16. Mendel removed the anthers of the plants in order to prevent this type of pollination

  17. This generation is considered Mendel’s original pure strains of plants

  18. An individual that has two of the same alleles is called this

  19. This is the term that refers to the actual traits that are expressed in an individual…or what is seen

  20. Finish the following analogy: Codominance : both traits are displayed :: homozygous : ___________________

  21. This is a diagram in which several generations of a family and the occurrence of certain characteristics are shown

  22. This is a graphical display that shows an individual’s chromosomes arranged in homologous pairs and in order of diminishing size

  23. This is the type of mutation caused by a piece of DNA breaking away from its chromosome and becoming attached to a nonhomologous chromosome

  24. This is the type of mutation that is responsible for Down Syndrome

  25. Mutations in these type of cells can be passed onto offspring

  26. Name one way in which the risks of passing on a genetic disorder to one’s children can be assessed

  27. True or False: All mutations are harmful to the individual

  28. How many possible phenotypes are possible in the offspring of a cross between a heterozygous individual and a homozygous recessive individual?

  29. Tallness (T) is dominant over shortness (t) in pea plants. An individual heterozygous for this trait would have this genotype

  30. This is the device used to determine the probable outcome of genetic crosses

  31. How many homozygous dominant offspring would result from a heterozygous cross?

  32. Daily Double!!

  33. What would be the genotypic ratio in a cross between a heterozygous individual and a homozygous dominant individual?

  34. The sex chromosomes refer to these two specific chromosomes

  35. This term refers to a change in a gene due to damage or incorrect copying

  36. A disease found equally in males as in females and all children who had the disease had parents who also had the disease would be referred to as this

  37. When several genes influence a trait, that trait is said to be this

  38. Because colorblindness is located on the X chromosome, colorblindness is considered to be this

  39. Final Jeopardy!!

  40. If the cells from one part of a developing embryo were transplanted to another part of that embryo, the cells would most likely do this
