1. Exam #3 Th 12/6 in class Homework #4 is due 12/4/07 (only if needed) Bonus #2 posted Year End Topics: mtDNA Mapping Probability Evolution and the Origin of Humans

2. PhenotypeGenotype Genes code for proteins (or RNA). These gene products give rise to traits… It is rarely this simple. Figs 1.15-17

3. The relationship between genes and traits is often complex Complexities include: Complex relationships between alleles Multiple genes controlling one trait One gene controlling multiple traits Environmental effects

4. The colors of peppers are determined by the interaction of several genes

5. Fig 3.14+.16 Complexity of inheritance leads to genetic diversity.

6. Eye color: One trait controlled by multiple genes

7. Fig 6.7 Seven alleles and their interactions in leaf patterning of clover

8. The relationship between genes and traits is often complex Complexities include: Complex relationships between alleles Multiple genes controlling one trait One gene controlling multiple traits Environmental effects

9. 1 gene controlling many traits

10. Mom = HSDad = HS H or S HH HSSS HS possible offspring 75% Normal 25% Sickle-cell Mom Dad Sickle-Cell Anemia S=sickle-cell H=normal

11. Coincidence of malaria and sickle-cell anemia

12. Mom = HSDad = HS H or S HH HSSS HS possible offspring Oxygen transport: 75% Normal 25% Sickle-cell Malaria resistance: 75% resistant 25% susceptible Mom Dad Sickle-Cell Anemia S=sickle-cell H=normal

13. The relationship between genes and traits is often complex Complexities include: Complex relationships between alleles Multiple genes controlling one trait One gene controlling multiple traits Environmental effects

14. What is different about these plants?

15. grown in acidic soil grown in basic soil Environmental Variation

16. Inheritance can be predicted by probability

17. Fig 3.07 Probability of a 4= 1/6 Probability of two 4’s in a row= 1/6x1/6=1/36

18. Fig 3.07 Probability of 3 or 4 = 1/6+1/6= 1/3

19. Fig 3.07 “and” multiply “or” add

20. Fig 6.5 Sickled and normal red blood cells

21. Huntington’s Disease D=disease d=normal Neurological disease, symptoms begin around 40 years old.

22. Mom = ddDad = Dd d or d D or d Dd dd possible offspring 50% Huntington’s 50% Normal Mom Dad Huntington’s Disease D=disease d=normal

23. Two different people: One with Huntington’s disease = Dd Hh One without Huntington’s disease = dd Hh mate. What is the probability that their offspring will have Huntington’s disease and sickle cell anemia? (Dd hh)

24. Two people: One with Huntington’s disease = Dd Hh One without Huntington’s disease = dd Hh mate. What is the probability that their offspring will have Huntington’s disease and sickle cell anemia? Dd hh Probability of each outcome: Probability of Dd (Ddxdd) =.5 Probability of hh (HhxHh) =.25

25. Two people: One with Huntington’s disease = Dd Hh One without Huntington’s disease = dd Hh mate. What is the probability that their offspring will have Huntington’s disease and sickle cell anemia? Dd hh Probability of each outcome: Probability of Dd (Ddxdd) =.5 Probability of hh (HhxHh) =.25 Multiply both probabilities.25 X.5 = 12.5% chance Dd hh offspring

26. How do individuals and groups with different genes arise? Evolution… Does it occur? If so, how does it occur?

27. Does evolution occur?

28. As DNA changes; traits change. Protein

29. Evolution: A species’ genetic component changes as the individuals reproduce.

30. Evolution: A species’ genetic component changes as the individuals reproduce. These changes are based on how the DNA changes and who reproduces.

31. O O OOO O O OO OO Bacteria with mutation causing resistance Evolution: changes in DNA as information transmitted
