1
Genetics The study of heredity Genes are found on chromosomes. Chromosomes are made up of DNA.
2
Alleles: Different forms of a gene. Dominant: If the dominant allele (gene) is present, the organism will show that trait. Recessive: Trait will be exhibited only if organism does not have dominant allele or is pure for recessive trait.
3
Gregor Mendel (1822-1884) An Austrian monk who cultivated and studied garden pea plants. His studies produced the basic concepts of heredity.

TraitDominant Allele Recessive Allele Possible Genotype Possible Phenotypes Seed Color G (green)g (yellow)GG Homozygous Gg Heterozygous gg Green Yellow Flower Color P (purple)p (white)PP Homozygous Pp Heterozygous pp Purple white Genotype: The Allele combination, heterozygous (hybrid) or homozygous (gg, GG, or Gg). Phenotype: The physical characteristic displayed (green or yellow).
5
Why Pea Plants? Many observable contrasting traits. Easy to grow. Short time between one generation and the next.

Punnett Square In Pea plants Green pods (G) are dominant over yellow (g) pods. Genotype Phenotype GG homozygous Green Pod Gg heterozygous Green Pod gg Yellow Pod P Cross : GG x gg Possible Gametes : ____ ____ X ____ ____ Gg Green Pod Gg Green Pod Gg Green Pod Gg Green Pod F1 Genotypic ratio: F1 Phenotypic ratio: g GGGG

In mice black is dominant over white; B – black, b- white, BB homozygous black, Bb heterozygous black, bb recessive white Cross two heterozygous black mice, Bb x Bb Cross : Bb x Bb Possible Gametes : ____ ____ X ____ ____ Genotypic ratio: Phenotypic ratio:
11
Test Cross Is this back mouse homozygous black BB or heterozygous black Bb? One way to find out is to do a Test Cross. Cross this black mouse with the recessive white bb. BB x bbBb x bb If any of the offspring produced are white or show the recessive trait, then the black mouse had to be heterozygous Bb. If all of the offspring produced are black, you cannot be 100% positive that the black mouse is homozygous BB because the inheritance of a an allele is a 50/50 chance.
