Rollercoaster of Genes by Dr. Annette M. Parrott www.africangreyparrott.com Sung to the tune “Rollercoaster of Love”

It’s genetics, Inheritance. It’s genetics: How traits are passed on

It’s genetics, Inheritance. It’s genetics: How traits are passed on

It’s genetics, Inheritance. It’s genetics: How traits are passed on

It’s genetics, Inheritance. It’s genetics: How traits are passed on

We each have genes Found on every chromosome and They code for traits

Your eyes are green But his are grey and mine are brown All caused by genes

You have two genes, one from mom and one from dad They’re called alleles

Two of the same and homozygous is your name You’re heterozygous if it’s one of each heterozygous

It’s genetics, Inheritance. It’s genetics: How traits are passed on

It’s genetics, Inheritance. It’s genetics: How traits are passed on

Phenotype  expression of genes, what you look like These are your traits

Genotype  the genes that control characteristics On chromosomes

Dominance  expressing one trait over another Recessive is masked

Autosomes  they do not determine gender, Like sex chromosomes

…this has been a Dr. Production...
