Mendel’s Experiment

Step 1:

Fertilization:

Purebred:

Hybrid:

He called these plants the ______.

Step 2:

Monohybrid cross:

*

Step 3:

Overall

Genes:


*

These copies are called ______.

Alleles are represented by ______.

Examples….

Principal of Dominant alleles:

Examples…

Principal of Recessicve alleles:

Examples…

Mendel’s First Law

Law of Segregation

Gamete:

Where do you get your sex cells from?

11.2 Applying Mendel’s Principal

Probability:

Punnett Squares:

Homozygous:

Homozygous Dominant:

Homozygous Recessive:

Heterozygous:

Genotype:

Phenotype:


Your mother is homozygous for black hair and
your dad has blonde hair. Black is dominant to blonde.

Mendel’s Second Law


Law of Independent Assortment:

11.3 Other Patterns of Inheritance

Incomplete dominance or intermediate inheritance:

Examples…

Codominance:

For example blood. What are the four blood types?

Blood Grouping

Blood Type / Genotype

If a woman who is 6 ‘3’ and mates with a male who is 6 ‘7’… does that mean their son or daughter will be tall? Why?

11.4 Meiosis

Homologous:

Diploid:

Haploid:

Almost all human cells are ______(2n). They contain two homologous sets

of chromosomes. Single set of chromosomes are called ______(n). Gametes

are sex cells (eggs and sperm) and are haploid. For humans n= ______.

______(n) is fusing with an ______(n). this is called ______.

The fertilized egg is called a ______(2n).

Meiosis:

Mitosis:

Mitosis vs. Meiosis

Mitosis / Meiosis
Why does it happen?
Where does it happen in your body?
When does it happen during your lifetime?
Number of cells formed?
Number of chromosomes
Number of cell divisions
Types of cells formed
