Review A couple wants to know how likely their children will inherit a form of deafness, which is caused by a recessive gene. The mother has no family history of deafness, but the father is heterozygous for the deafness. Use the letter “D” to complete the Punnett Square

People in a town of Alaska have seen some wolves with black coats and blue eyes recently. They want to know how likely it is for a wolf to have both traits. Normal coat color (N) is dominant to black (n) and brown eyes (B) are dominant to blue (b). The alpha male is black with blue eyes and the alpha female is heterozygous for normal colored coat and for brown eyes. What are their genotypes?

a.How many of the offspring out of 16 living in the pack will have a normal coat and brown eyes? b.How many of the offspring out of 16 living in the pack will have a black coat and blue eyes?

Sex-linked trait A boy, whose parents and grandparents had normal vision, is color-blind. What genotype must his mother have in order for him to have color-blindness? Use X B for the dominant normal condition and X b for the recessive, color-blind phenotype.

Group Readings In your groups, answer the following questions in your notebook: 1.What disorder are you reading about? 2.How can a person inherit the disorder? (Is it sex-linked, autosomal, recessive, dominant?) 3.What are some of the symptoms? 4.How prevalent (common) is it? 5.What is the prognosis for a person with the disorder? 6.What is something else we should know about the disorder?

Exit Ticket A woman is concerned that her children may inherit cystic fibrosis, which runs in her family. She does not have the disorder herself, but she may be a carrier. 1.What would her genotype look like if she is a carrier? (use the letter F) 2.What is the probability that she would have a child with cystic fibrosis?

Warm Up 1.Name two diseases that are sex-linked (found on the X- chromosome) 2.Name two diseases that are autosomal. 3.In the pedigree below, is the trait autosomal or sex- linked?

What are some ways we inherit traits?

Group Readings and Posters Directions: –You will be put into small groups –Each group will receive a different reading that everyone must complete –Once finished, you must answer the questions from your reading by creating a poster –Make sure to include diagrams and make the poster colorful –Everyone must participate in making the poster

How do we inherit traits? a)The different ways that people inherit traits are called “modes of inheritance”. b)There are 4 modes of inheritance that you will need to know: –Complete Dominance –Incomplete Dominance –Codominance –Polygenic Traits

Complete Dominance This is when one trait overpowers another. The dominant trait is the one that will suppress other traits. (BB or Bb) The recessive trait is hidden unless there are two copies of the allele present in the gene. (bb)

What is Incomplete Dominance? a)Incomplete dominance is when the offspring have a blend of their parents’ traits. b)Example: If red snapdragons (RR) are crossed with white snapdragons (rr), you get PINK snapdragons (Rr)! c)The genotypes would be Rr but the flowers will be pink because both traits blended to form a new phenotype.

Example of Incomplete Dominance

Example in Humans

What is Co-dominance? a)Co-dominance is when the two different alleles are equally expressed in a heterozygous offspring. b)Both alleles makeup the phenotype without blending together. c)Example: Not all things in the world are just black or brown! Lots of things are spotted or made of multiple colors due to co- dominant traits.

Co-dominance

What are Polygenic traits? a)Polygenic traits are traits controlled by two or more genes -“Poly” means many or multiple b) Polygenic traits often show a wide variety of phenotypes. c)This type of inheritance is responsible for the wide range of different skin colors in humans. There are more than 4 different genes that determine this trait.

Polygenetic traits

Examples in Humans Eye color Height Weight Skin Color Blood Type

Multiple Alleles a)When there are more than two possible alleles for a trait, it’s called multiple allele inheritance b)In a population, there are multiple alleles that can make up a trait c)Example: Blood Type -People can have the blood types A, B, AB or O

Example problem Andalusian chickens can come in different colors. When a black chicken is crossed with white chicken, they produce a “blue” chicken. The blue Andalusian chicken is called blue because it has both black and white feathers. What type of inheritance is this?

Mode of Inheritance Suppose you have two rose plants, both with pink flowers. You cross the two plants and are surprised to find that, while most of the offspring are pink, some are red and some are white. What type of inheritance is this? (incomplete, co- dominance, multiple alleles, polygenic, sex-linked)?
