Mendel’s Principles Revisited
Inheritance of biological
_____________ is determined by
characteristics
individual units known as genes
______.
During sexual reproduction, genes are
offspring
passed from parents to _________.
Two or more forms of the gene for a
trait exist, some forms of the
single _____
gene may be _________
dominant and others
may be recessive.
Mendel’s Principles Revisited
Organisms typically have ____copies
of
two
each gene, (one from each _______)
parent
An organism’s _____
pair of genes (2 alleles)
are segregated from each other when
gametes are formed.
________
genes usually
Alleles for different ______
independently of one
segregate _____________
another. (through meiosis)

Incomplete Dominance
In incomplete dominance, neither allele is
dominant so there is a blending of
__________
traits when two different alleles for the
______
same trait occur together.
Colors blend together

3rd phenotype)

In Four O’ Clocks, if you cross a red _____
WW

Codominance
alleles contribute to the
Both _______
phenotype of the organism by showing
up simultaneously (at the
same time) in heterozygous
individuals.
In cattle and horses, if you
red (RR)
cross a pure ____
with a pure ______
white (WW),
you get (RW) which
roan
produces the color _____.
Codominance
These cattle or horses actually have both
red and white hairs intermixed, or are
phenotype
spotted. Roan is a third ___________.

Andalusian chickens also show this
pattern of inheritance.
If you cross a black (BB) chicken
With a white (WW) chicken
You get black+white speckled (BW) chicken
Multiple Alleles
In this pattern of inheritance, the genes
two alleles controlling
have more than _____
them and are therefore said to have
multiple alleles. No individual has more
two alleles, but there are more
than _____
two possible alleles in a
than _____
trait will be expressed
population, so a ______
in more than two forms.
Multiple Alleles
Blood type in humans is an example of
this inheritance pattern.

Polygenic Traits
Traits controlled by two or more genes
Show a wide range of phenotypes
The phenotype
is produced by
the interaction
of more than

Polygenic Traits
Sometimes the combination of the
different genes results in continuous
__________
variation of these traits.
The combined size of all
the ______
body parts from
head to foot, determines
the _______
height of the person.
