All of your genetic information is contained on your CHROMOSOME
S!!GENES are on your chromosomes!!DNA is found on your
genes!!
Cats – 38Cats – 38
23 from mom
Human body cells
Each pair has a number from 1-23.
Chromosome 1 from dad/mom have similar
genetic information.This is also true for the other
22 pairs.
Different organisms contain different numbers of chromosomes!!
Dogs - 78
46 chromosomes 23 pair of
chromosomes
23 from dad
These chromosome pairs are calledThese chromosome pairs are called
Genes that Genes that determine a determine a
specific trait are specific trait are found in the same found in the same
location on that location on that pair of pair of
chromosomeschromosomes
Example: the gene that
determines ear shape is located
in same place on 2 homologous chromosomes.
HOMOLOGOUS CHROMOSOMES
Actual (expression)Physical appearance.
Genotype determines Phenotype.
Those homologous chromosomes carry the genes that make
you—YOU!!Those two make up yourGENOTYP

Alleles will be either: Dominant = Stronger TraitRecessive = Weaker Trait

Genotype trait is written asGenotype trait is written as2 letters.2 letters.
The allele that causes free earlobesis dominant over the allele for
attached earlobes.So F is used for free earlobe gene.
What do you think is used for attached earlobe gene?

Offspring receive 2 copies of Offspring receive 2 copies of each gene-1 from each each gene-1 from each parent.parent.
3 possible genotypes : FF, ff, or Ff.FF and ff = HomozygousFf = Heterozygous
“Homo” means “the same.”Homozygous genotype – Made up of 2 dominant or 2 recessive alleles.Ex.- FF or ff
“Hetero” means “different.”Heterozygous genotype – Made upof 1 dominant and 1 recessive allele.

If an organism inherits a If an organism inherits a dominant allele, the dominant allele, the dominant trait is dominant trait is expressed.expressed.Allele for free earlobes = dominant.
So, how would we write the genotype?
___________________________FF and Ff
How then would we write thegenotype for attached earlobes?
___________________________ff

Cross – Mating of 2 parent organisms
Punnett Squares are used to calculateprobability of genotypes/phenotypesin offspring.

crossing tall pea plant crossing tall pea plant with short pea plant.with short pea plant.First, I must know the genotype of each parent plant.
There are 3 possible genotypes : TT, Tt, and ttGenotype of pure tall plant : TT <---- It has 2 dominant alleles Genotype of pure short plant : tt <--- It has 2 recessive alleles.
To make a Punnett Square, 1st separate the parent alleles.Place 1 pair across top of square, and other pair down the left side.

Suppose you crossed a pea plant that has round seeds (R) with a pea plant that has wrinkled seeds (r). If 50 percent of the offspring have round seeds and 50 percent of the offspring have wrinkled seeds, what are the genotypes of the parent plants? Make a Punnett Square to help you answer the question.
1. 2 different forms of the same gene are called A. phenotypes. C. dominant traitsB. genotypes. D. alleles 2. An organism’s expressed traits make up itsA. recessive traits C. phenotypeB. genotype D. alleles
3. A pea plant that is homozygous dominant for seed color is crossed with a pea plant that ishomozygous recessive for seed color. Since yellow is the dominant color, the letters Y and yrepresent the genes for seed color. What cross represents these 2 plants?A. Yy x Yy C. YY x yyB. YY x Yy D. Yy x yy4. You meet a person and notice that she has dimples. What can you say for sure about the phenotypes of her parents?A. At least 1 of her parents has dimples. C. Neither parent has dimples.B. Both of her parents have dimples. D. 1 of her parents does not have dimples.
