Honors Biology Ch. 11 Complex Inheritance and Human Heredity Complex Inheritance and Human Heredity
2
I.Human Inheritance - heredity in humans is the same as in other organisms - most genetic diseases are recessive and rare
3
A.Recessive Traits -diseases caused by a single defective gene/protein 1.Cystic Fibrosis (CF) 2.Tay-Sachs Disease 3.Albinism 4.Phenylketonuria (PKU) 5.Sickle-Cell Anemia
4
DISORDER OCCURRENCE IN THE U.S. CAUSEEFFECT CURE- TREATMENT Cystic Fibrosis 1 : 3500 (Mainly people of northern European descent) The gene that codes for a membrane protein is defective. *Excessive Mucus Production *Digestive and Respiratory Failure *No Cure *Daily Cleaning of Mucus from Lungs *Mucus- thinning Drugs Albinism1 : 17,000 Genes do not produce melanin. *No Color in Skin, Eyes & Hair *Prone to Skin Cancer and Cataracts *No Cure *Protect Skin from the Sun Tay-Sachs Disease 1 : 2500 (Affects People of Jewish descent) Absence of a necessary enzyme that breaks down fatty substances *Buildup of Fatty Deposits in The Brain *Mental Disabilities *No Cure or Treatment *Death Occurs by Age 5
5
B.Dominant Traits 1.Huntington’s Disease -rare, degenerative nervous system disorder Woody Guthrie
6
2.Achondroplasia -a disorder of bone growth -homozygous dominant condition is fatal
7
3.Polydactyly
8
II.Other Inheritance Patterns A.Sex Chromosomes: - pair of chromosomes that determine an individual’s sex XX - female XY - male Autosomes: the other chromosome pairs except the sex chromosomes
9
Human Chromosomes: 44 Autosomes
10
Human Chromosomes: 2 Sex Chromosomes
11
B.Sex-Linked Traits: -trait controlled by a recessive allele on the "X" sex chromosome -more common in males -Ex. Red-green color-blindness, hemophilia

Queen Victoria’s Family
14
Pedigree of Europe’s Royal Families
15
C.Sex-Influenced Traits: -trait controlled by an allele that is recessive in females and dominant in males -Ex. Male-pattern Baldness
16
D.Incomplete Dominance: -a trait in which the heterozygote shows a blending of traits -Ex. Carnations and Snap dragons: R - red, W - white, RW - pink
17
RR Incomplete Dominance: P Homozygous Red Parent Homozygous White Parent R W RWRW RW Pink W W
18
RW Incomplete Dominance: F 1 Heterozygous Pink Parent R W RWRR WW RedPink White W R
19
E.Codominance: -a trait in which the heterozygote shows both alleles equally -Ex. Horses: R - red, W - white, RW - roan -Ex. ABO Blood Groups A B AB
20
E.Codominance: Roan Horses
21
E.Codominance: ABO Blood Groups
22
F.Polygenic Inheritance: -traits controlled by more than one pair of genes -Ex. hair, skin, and eye color

G.Epistasis -A gene at one locus alters the phenotypic expression of a gene at a second locus. - Example: black, brown, and white coat in mice

27
H.Multiple Alleles: 1.ABO Blood Groups: - 4 blood types: A, B, AB, O - caused by a protein in the membranes of red blood cells - 3 alleles for this protein: I A, I B, i
28
-Genotypes for the 4 blood types: Type A: I A I A, I A i Type B: I B I B, I B i Type AB: I A I B Universal Recipient Type O:ii Universal Donor
29
2.Rh Blood Groups: -an example of multiple alleles -there are about 8 dominant alleles (+) -one recessive allele (-)
30
III.Nondisjunction: -homologous chromosomes fail to separate during meiosis
31
III.Nondisjunction: -Down Syndrome (Trisomy 21) -Klinefelter’s Syndrome (XXY) - XYY Syndrome -Turner’s Syndrome (Monosomy X) (X) -Trisomy X (XXX)
