Turn in any remaining Karyotype materials Get ready for a warm-up
Biology 12/19 and 12/20 Turn in any remaining Karyotype materials Get ready for a warm-up
2
Warm-Up 12/19 and 12/20 Which pairs are considered autosomes?
Which are the sex chromosomes? What is this person’s gender? What is abnormal about this karyotype?
3
Sex Linked Traits Some alleles for non-gender traits are found on the X Chromosome Men are more likely to have disorders from these alleles because they have one X All alleles on the man’s X chromosome will physically show up! Women can just be carriers of a disorder if one X is normal
4
Sex-Linked Trait Problem
XC = normal vision Xc = color blind Mom is carrier of color-blindness allele, but is not color blind (XCXc) Dad has normal vision XC Y XCXC Normal daughter XCY Normal son XCXc Carrier Daughter XcY Color blind son XC Xc
5
Sex Linked Traits Hemophilia and Muscular Dystrophy are also common sex-linked traits Hemophilia: lack protein for normal blood clotting Muscular Dystrophy: progressive weakening and loss of muscle
6
Due Next Time X Linked Traits WS Blood Types WS (p 5, 6, 7)
7
Blood Types In blood types, A and B are codominant, and O is recessive
Possible genotypes are AA, AB, BB, AO, BO, and OO What is the phenotype of an AO person? Type A Blood What is the phenotype of an AB person? Type AB Blood
8
More on Blood Types The immune system attacks cells with foreign antigens (attachments) AB can accept any types of blood/organs, because the body recognizes the antigens on A, B, AB, and O (no antigens) O is the “universal donor” because it has no antigens, but someone with O can only receive O.
9
More on Blood Types
10
What does O+ mean? Blood types also have a + or – attached them
There is a second antigen on the surface of a cell called the Rh factor Rh positive = have the antigen Rh negative = don’t have the antigen Organs and blood can be rejected based on A, B, O, or Rh antigens
11
Can We Prevent Organ Rejection?
