1 GENES AND CHROMOSOMES

2 The Chromosome Theory of Heredity
Traits are determined by pairs of genes (alleles) A pair of genes are located on a pair of chromosomes, one gene for each trait on each chromosome of a pair. In meiosis, the chromosomes and therefore the genes, segregate independently – one of each pair to a gamete In fertilization, gametes unite resulting in a fertilized egg that has two genes for each trait carried on pairs of chromosomes.

3 SEX DETERMINATION AND CHROMOSOMES

4 Homogametes Heterogametes
A. XX-XY CONDITIONS IN DROSOPHILA: 2n= 8 P: (6 + XX) ♀ (6+ XY) ♂ G: ( 3+ X); (3+X) (3+X) (3+Y) Homogametes Heterogametes Autosomes (somatic chr) meiosis Gonosomes (sex chr) 6 + XO ♂ 6 + XXY ♀ 6 + YO zygote dies

5 IN HUMANS: 2n= 46 P: (44 + XX) ♀ (44+ XY) ♂
G: ( 22+ X); (22+X) (22+X) (22+Y) Homogametes Heterogametes

6 44 + XO ♀ (TURNER SYNDROME)
44 + XXY ♂ (KLINEFELTER SYNDROME) 44 + YO ZYGOTE DIES 44 + XXX SUPER FEMALE 44 + XYY POSIBLE SERIAL KILLER*

14 Heterogametes Homogametes
B. ZZ-ZW CONDITION IN CHICKENS: 2n= 18 P: (16 + ZW) ♀ (16 + ZZ) ♂ G: ( 8+Z); (8+W) (8+Z) (8+Z) Heterogametes Homogametes

15 Homogametes Heterogametes
C. XX-X0 CONDITION IN GRASSHOPPER: 2n= 24 P: (22 + XX) ♀ (22 + X0) ♂ G: (11+X); (11+X) (11+X); (11+0) Homogametes Heterogametes

16 G: D. HAPLOID –DIPLOID CONDITION IN HONEYBEES:
P: (QUEEN) ♀ 2n= (DRONE) ♂ n= 12 G: meiosis mitosis eggs n n n n sperm n n fertilization parthenogenesis Female larvae (2n) Differentiaton due to difference in diet Male larvae (n) QUEEN WORKERS DRONES

17 In some species of animals, sex is determined by environmental conditions or by the presence or absence of the opposite sex Bonellia, If there is more of female individuals in the population, the larva develops into male, which is very small and lives as a parasites in the reproductive system of the female. In amphibians sex determination is affected by temperature of the environment, and also by hormones.

18 In certain annelids, when the number of segments of the organism is small, it is a male. When the number of segments increase, the organism becomes female.

28 3. Below is a pedigree for four generations of a family, some of whose members exhibit a particular trait. From the information in the pedigree, determine if the trait is dominant or recessive, and sex –linked or not sex-linked. Which of the lettered individuals is a carrier- that is, heterozygous-for the trait? a c b d
