Understanding Dihybrid Crosses and Inheritance Patterns in Genetics
Dive into the fascinating world of genetics with our activity on Dihybrid Crosses. In this lesson, you will explore the combinations of traits in a cross between two organisms, focusing on the genotypes Ggff and ggFF. Learn to calculate the ratios of phenotypes related to color and feather presence while distinguishing between Mendelian and non-Mendelian inheritance. We’ll also cover incomplete dominance and codominance, highlighting real-world examples. Complete this engaging handout and prepare for the exit ticket involving pedigree and karyotype analysis.

Presentation Transcript
WELCOME BACK! IN ACTIVITY: Pick-Up & Finish the Wkst “Dihybrid Cross Practice” In your ISN complete the following Dihybrid Cross: Ggff x ggFF Bird Info: G=Green; g=Gold; F=Feathers; f=No feathers Describe 4 Ratios for each Phenotype (G,g,F,&f)
Genetics – The Study of Heredity TEKS 6F Predict possible outcomes of various genetic combinations such as monohybrid crosses, dihybrid crosses, and non-Mendelian inheritance
Non-Mendalian Inheritance What Gregor Mendel didn’t know….
R R W W Incomplete Dominance • One allele is not completely dominant over another and the traits combine RW RW RW RW
R R W RW RW RW RW W Incomplete Dominance Questions: A. List the possible genotypes and phenotypes. genotypes – phenotypes – B. How many of the plants would have red flowers? C. How many would have white flowers? D. How many would have pink flowers? RW Pink 0% 0% 100%
B B W W EXAMPLE: Black cow + White cow = Spotted cow Codominance BW BW BW BW • BOTH traits are fully expressed in all offspring! *Chick-Fil-A Cow!!!!
Codominance Example: Blood Type O (ii) X Blood Type A (IAIA) i i IA IAi IAi • Both alleles are fully expressed • Example: Blood Types 1. TypeA = IAIAorIAi 2. Type B = IBIBorIBi 3. Type AB = IAIB 4. TypeO = ii IA IAi IAi
Codominance • GENOTYPES???? • IAIA = ______ of ______=____% = Type________ • IAi = ______ of ______=____% = Type________ • IBIB = ______ of ______=____% = Type________ • IBi = ______ of ______=____% = Type________ • IAIB = ______ of ______=____% = Type________ • Ii = ______ of ______=____% = Type________
Sex-Linked Traits (sex-linked genes) • Pattern of inheritance on the “X” and “Y” chromosomes (X X= female; XY=male) • Most are found on “X” chromosome • Examples: Colorblindness & Hemophelia
Polygenic Traits • Controlled by 2 or more genes and result in phenotype variations that can be represented by a “bell curve” (Ex. Height, Skin Color)
INCOMPLETE & CODOMINANCE SEX LINKED GENES(Turn-in for Grade) Activity:Non-MendElian InheritancePRACTICE HANDOUTS
Karyotype Analysis • To analyze chromosomes, we cut up and assemble photographs of chromosomes in pairs. • There are 44 autosomal chromosomes and 2 sex chromosomes in humans.
