1. Review: Dominant/Recessive
A dominant allele is capable of masking, or covering up, a recessive allele.
PP = purple
Pp = purple
pp = white
This slide hidden. Not strictly necessary. But if you think your students could use some more practice, un-hide it.

2. Review: Dominant/Recessive
In pea plants, purple flowers (P) are dominant over white flowers (p). Show the potential offspring between two heterozygous plants.

GENOTYPES: P p PP Pp
PP: 25%
Pp: 50%
pp: 25%

Purple: 75%

4. Incomplete Dominance Key Point #1:
In incomplete dominance, one allele does not mask the other. In heterozygotes, the dominant and recessive alleles BLEND TOGETHER.
Example: In snapdragon flowers, red (r) and white (w) are incompletely dominant.
During this slide, early finishers should get whiteboards + markers for their tables.

5. Incomplete Dominance Genotype Phenotype rr (homozygous red) red
rw (heterozygous)
pink
ww (homozygous white)
white

8. In carnations (a type of flower), color is an incompletely dominant trait. Red (r) is NOT dominant over white (w). Create a Punnett square showing the potential offspring of two heterozygous carnations.
Heterozygous= DIFFERENT
Parent 1: rw Parent 2: rw

9. Incomplete Dominance w r r r r w r r w w w w

10. Co-Dominance AA = normal cells SS = sickle cells AS = half of each
Key Point #1:
In co-dominance, both alleles are dominant. In heterozygotes, both alleles are expressed EQUALLY.
NOTICE – ALL GENOTYPES HAVE CAPITAL LETTERS BECAUSE ALL TRAITS ARE DOMINANT, NOTHING IS RECESSIVE!
Example: Sickle cell anemia in humans
AA = normal cells
SS = sickle cells
AS = half of each

11. CO-DOMINANCE
This is the ONLY kind of inheritance where you use two DIFFERENT CAPITAL letters!!!!!!!!

12. Sickle Cell Anemia

13. Sickle cells easily get stuck in the circulatory system.

14. Sickle Cell Anemia A S A A AA AA AS AS GENOTYPES: PHENOTYPES: AA: 50%
Being normal (A) and having sickle cell anemia (S) are co-dominant.
Show the potential offspring of a normal father and a heterozygous mother.
Fill in percents for genotype and phenotype.

GENOTYPES:

PHENOTYPES: AS AS
Normal: 50%
Some normal, some sickle: 50%
Sickle Cell: 0%

15. GP 4 GENOTYPES: PHENOTYPES:
In cows, color is co-dominant. Show the potential offspring between a red bull (RR) and a white cow (WW).
Fill in percents for genotype and phenotype.

17. If you’re a little confused
Some ways you can remember… If you’re not confused then you don’t have to listen

18. Regular dominance

19. Incomplete dominance- blend!
You can have the banana smoothie! Banana and ice cream together!

20. Co-Dominance: Both at once!
The banana split!
Banana AND ice cream in one bowl. Separate but together!!!!

21. Practice
Which type, Mendelian (normal), incomplete domianance, or codominance?
Rats can be white or have color. If you mate a homozygous dominant brown mouse with a white mouse, you get all brown mice.
A man with green eyes and a woman with brown eyes have a baby. The baby has eyes that are brown with bits of green in them.
In rabbits, if the genotype is bb it is black, ww is white and bw is grey.
