1/14/13 Bell Ringer Create a punnett square for this situation: In guinea pigs, the allele for black fur (B) is dominant over the allele for white fur (b). In a cross between a heterozygous black guinea pig (Bb) and a homozygous white guinea pig (bb), what is the probability that an offspring will have white fur? Objective: To review heredity and probability Bb b Bbbb b Bbbb

Homework pg. 123 #1-3 What is probability? A number that describes how likely it is that an event will occur. If you know the parents’ alleles for a trait, how can you use a Punnett square to predict the probable genotypes of the offspring? A punnett square shows all the possible combinations of alleles that can result from a genetic cross. A pea plant with round seeds has the genotype Rr. You cross this plant with a wrinkled-seed plant, genotype rr. What is the probability that the offspring will have wrinkled seeds? (Use a Punnett square to help with the prediction.) 50% Rr r Rrrr r Rrrr

Define genotype and phenotype Genotype – an organism’s genetic makeup Phenotype – an organism’s physical appearance Explain how two organisms can have the same phenotype but different genotypes. Give an example. A heterozygous organism will have the same phenotype as an organism that is homozygous for a dominant allele. An example would be a tall pea plant can be either heterozygous or homozygous. A pea plant has a tall stem. What are its possible genotypes? TT or Tt What is codominance? Give an example of codominant alleles and explain why they are codominant. An inheritance pattern in which alleles for a trait are neither dominant nor recessive. For example, the alleles for black and white chicken feathers are codominant because both colors show. What is the phenotype of a chicken with the genotype F B F W ? Black and white feathers

Punnett Square Practice W = long whiskers w = short whiskers What percentage of offspring would be expected to have short whiskers from the cross of two long-whiskered seals, one that is homozygous dominant and one that is heterozygous ? Homozygous = WW Heterozygous = Ww WW W WWW w Ww

Punnett Square Practice R = Red flower r = white flower If two heterozygous red flowers are mixed, what are the possible phenotypes and genotypes that can occur? Heterozygous = Rr Genotypes RR, Rr, rr Phenotypes RR = Red Rr = Red rr = white Rr R RRRr r rr

Punnett Square Practice In humans, wavy hair (H c H s ) results by the co-dominant situation of curly hair (H c ) and straight hair (H s ). What are the possible results if a curly-haired man and wavy-haired woman have children. Genotypes HcHsHcHs HcHcHcHc Phenotypes H c H s = Wavy hair H c H c = Curly hair HcHc HcHc HsHs HcHsHcHs HcHsHcHs HcHc HcHcHcHc HcHcHcHc
