Meiosis Production of haploid gametes (sperm and eggs) Meiosis I start with a diploid cell copy DNA Homologous chromosomes separate divide to produce 2 haploid cells Meiosis II Sister chromatids separate both haploid cells divide to produce 4 haploid cells
MEIOSIS
Spermatogenesis production of sperm cells
Oogenesis production of egg cells

Gregor Mendel Monk in Austria who researched heredity by breeding pea plants
Gregor Mendel P1 Generation Always pure traits Always pure traits F1 Generation Always hybrids (mixed traits) Always hybrids (mixed traits) F2 Generation Always produce a 3:1 ratio Always produce a 3:1 ratio
Gregor Mendel Trait appearing in the F1 generation is DOMINANT always expressed always expressed Trait that doesn’t appear in the F1 but does appear in the F2 is the RECESSIVE trait only expressed when there is no dominant allele only expressed when there is no dominant allele
Alleles Similar traits from different chromosomes are called ALLELES Mom = brown eyes, Dad = blue eyes Mom = brown eyes, Dad = blue eyes B = brown eyes-dominant b = blue eyes- recessive Homozygous – two alleles of a gene are the same (BB, bb) Heterozygous – two alleles of a gene are different (Bb)
Combining Genes Genotype – the genetic makeup of an organism (BB, Bb, bb ) Phenotype – the traits that are expressed because of the genotype (Black or brown)
Mendel’s Theories: Law of Segregation A pair of chromosomes is separated during the formation of gametes
Mendel’s Theories: Law of Independent Assortment Different traits are distributed to gametes randomly Different traits are distributed to gametes randomly Add to genetic diversity Add to genetic diversity
Crossing Over Results in genetic recombination (new DNA composition) Add to genetic diversity
Incomplete Dominance some traits are not completely dominant over others R = red r = white R = red r = white both influence color (Rr = pink) both influence color (Rr = pink)
Codominance neither is recessive – they both show up Ex. Roan horse color Ex. Roan horse color Ex. Blood types Ex. Blood types

Structure of DNA Discovered in the 1950s by Watson and Crick Double helix– 2 strands twisted around each other each strand is made of linked nucleotides each strand is made of linked nucleotides
Nucleotide Deoxyribose Phosphate group Nitrogen base Adenine Thymine Guanine Cytosine
Replication of DNA Unzip
RNA Three types of RNA messenger (mRNA) – carries info from DNA to cytoplasm messenger (mRNA) – carries info from DNA to cytoplasm transfer (tRNA) – binds to amino acids transfer (tRNA) – binds to amino acids ribosomal (rRNA) – most common, forms ribosomes ribosomal (rRNA) – most common, forms ribosomes
RNA Uses the following Nitrogenous bases: Uses the following Nitrogenous bases: Uracil Uracil Adenine Adenine Cytosine Cytosine Guanine Guanine
The Central Dogma: The process to create a protein
Transcription: In the nucleus DNA is copied on mRNA Remember that RNA uses Uracil instead of Thymine
Translation: Cytoplasm mRNA moves to a ribosome in the cytoplasm tRNA helps by bringing amino acids to string together a protein
Transcription or Translation? Polypeptide
Gene Mutations Substitution GCC/CGA/AUU/GCA Ala/ Arg/ Iso/ Ala GCC/CAA/AUU/GCA Ala/ Glu/ Iso/ Ala Only affects the amino acid containing the substitution
Gene Mutations Deletion AUU/GCC/CGA/AUU/GCA Iso / Ala / Arg/ Iso/ Ala Iso / Ala / Arg/ Iso/ Ala AUU/_ CCC/GAA/UUG/CA Iso/ Pro/ Glu/ Leu/ Everything after the deletion is wrong
Gene Mutations Addition GCC/CGA/AUU/GCA Ala/ Arg / Iso / Ala GCC/CGA/AAU/UGC/A Ala / Arg / Asp / Cys / Everything after the addition is wrong
Chromosome Mutations Deletion – loss of a piece of a chromosome because it breaks off Deletion – loss of a piece of a chromosome because it breaks off
Chromosome Mutations Translocation – chromosome breaks and reattaches to a different chromosome Translocation – chromosome breaks and reattaches to a different chromosome
Chromosome Mutations Nondisjunction Chromosome doesn’t separate properly during meiosis Chromosome doesn’t separate properly during meiosis One gamete gets an extra copy of the chromosome One gamete gets an extra copy of the chromosome Cause of Down Syndrome Cause of Down Syndrome
Chromosome Mutations Trisomy 21 (Down Syndrome) Trisomy 21 (Down Syndrome)
Human Genetics Autosomal Autosomal Males and females inherit the trait equally Males and females inherit the trait equally Sex-linked Sex-linked Males tend to inherit the trait more often because they only have one X chromosome Males tend to inherit the trait more often because they only have one X chromosome Ex. Colorblindness is X-linked Ex. Colorblindness is X-linked
Pedigree Dominant or Recessive? Autosomal or Sex-linked?
Genetic Engineering Recombinant DNA Recombinant DNA DNA made from two or more organisms DNA made from two or more organisms
