Presentation transcript:

Genetics: The scientific study of heredity. – Heredity: The passing of physical characteristics from parents to offspring. Traits: the different forms of a characteristic – Ex.) eye color: blue, brown, green – Ex.) height: short, medium, tall

Traits can be passed from generation to generation through 2 primary methods …. 1.Asexual reproduction 2.Sexual reproduction

Gregor Mendel – Austrian priest/monk – born July 22, 1822; died January 6, 1884 – Known as “The Father of Genetics” – In his job as the monastery gardener, Mendel worked extensively with pea plants to determine how traits are passed from generation to generation. Now read pages C104-C105

Mendel’s experiments – Mendel fertilized pea plants by cross-pollinating the flowers of purebred pea plants. Fertilization: the process by which the egg & sperm cell of an organism combine to form a new organism. Pollination: the transfer of pollen from the pistil of a flower to the stamen of another flower. Purebred: the offspring of many generations with the same traits. – Ex.) Short parents always produce short offspring. – Ex.) Blue-eyed parents always produced blue-eyed offspring.

Mendel’s breeding experiments Ex.) Seed color Parents (P) First generation (F 1 ) Female sex cells from a purebred yellow-seeded plant Male sex cells in pollen from a purebred green- seeded plant Cross fertilized (crossed) All seeds produced turned out yellow © 2007 Paul Billiet ODWSODWS

Mendel’s breeding experiments Ex. Continued.) Seed color 1 st generation(F 1 ) 2 nd generation (F 2 ) Female sex cells from a yellow- seeded plant Male sex cells in pollen from a yellow-seeded plant Cross fertilized (crossed) © 2007 Paul Billiet ODWSODWS 3/4 yellow ¼ green

Mendel concluded 1.Mendel believed that individual factors or sets of genetic “information” must control the inheritance of traits. 2.The factors that control traits exists in pairs. 3.Each parent (mother & father) contributes 1 of the factors. 4.One factor in the pair can mask or hide the other factor. Gene: the factors that control a particular trait. – Ex.) eye color, height, hair color, nose shape, etc. Allele: the different forms of a gene – Ex.) eye color: brown, blue, green Now read pages C106-C107

– Dominant allele The stronger form of the gene that will always show up. Uses a capital letter – Ex.) Seed shape: round (R) – Ex.) Seed color: yellow (Y) – Recessive allele The weaker form of the gene that will only show up if there are 2 recessive alleles. Uses a lower case letter of the dominant allele for a trait. – Ex.) Seed shape: wrinkled (r) – Ex.) Seed color: green (y)

Dominance versus Prevalence – Just because a particular trait is dominant, does not mean it is more prevalent. Prevalent: majority; happens, takes place or is found most often. – Ex.) Seed color: Yellow is dominant; Green is prevalent – Ex.) Widow’s peak: Having one is dominant; Not having one is prevalent – This is good because there are some genetic diseases that are found on a dominant gene but they are less prevalent in society.

With your table partner, answer the following questions on page C107. – #2 – #6 – What is the difference between dominant alleles and recessive alleles?
