Figure 15.2 The chromosomal basis of Mendel’s laws
P Generation
Starting with two true-breeding pea plants,
we follow two genes through the F 1 and F2
generations. The two genes specify seed
color (allele Y for yellow and allele y for
Y
green) and seed shape (allele R for round
and allele r for wrinkled). These two genes are
on different chromosomes. (Peas have seven
chromosome pairs, but only two pairs are
illustrated here.)

Let’s review
- Ch 13 – Meiosis makes gametes – sperm & egg
- Ch 14 – Mendel studied peas
- gametes pass on traits
- unknown what was in the gametes
Chapter 15 Essential Questions
LO 3.9 The student is able to construct an explanation, using visual
representations or narratives, as to how DNA in chromosomes
is transmitted to the next generation via mitosis, or meiosis
followed by fertilization.
LO 3.15 The student is able to explain deviations from Mendel’s model
of the inheritance of traits.
LO 3.16 The student is able to explain how the inheritance patterns of
many traits cannot be accounted for by Mendelian genetics.
LO 3.17 The student is able to describe representations of an
appropriate example of inheritance patterns that cannot be
explained by Mendel’s model of the inheritance of traits.
Chapter 15: The Chromosomal Basis of Inheritance
1. How was it determined that chromosomes carry genes?
- Thomas Hunt Morgan
- 1st to trace a specific gene to a specific chromosome
- Noticed a fly with white eyes (wild-type is red)
- Wild-type – phenotype most common in the natural population (+)
- Mutants – alternative trait to the wild-type

white-eyed male, what color eyes will the F1 and F2 offspring have?

1. How was it determined that chromosomes carry genes?
2. Morgan’s next cross showed that linked genes are inherited together.
EXPERIMENT
Morgan first mated true-breeding wild-type flies with black, vestigial-winged flies to produce
heterozygous F1 dihybrids, all of which are wild-type in appearance. He then mated wild-type F1 dihybrid females with
black, vestigial-winged males, producing 2,300 F2 offspring, which he “scored” (classified according to phenotype).

What determines male or female in utero?
- SRY – sex-determining region of Y
- w/ SRY – gonads develop into testes
- w/o SRY – gonads develop into ovaries
- X – has genes not associated w/ sex characteristics
- Sex-linked is usually X-linked
- Fathers pass X-linked alleles to daughters (XX)
- Moms pass X-linked alleles to sons or daughters
- If X-linked allele is recessive
- ♀ shows phenotype when homozygous
- ♂ shows phenotype when hemizygous – more males affected

How are sex-linked alleles transmitted?
Figure 15.10 The transmission of sex-linked recessive traits
XAXA
(a) A father with the disorder will transmit the mutant
allele to all daughters but to no sons. When the
mother is a dominant homozygote, the daughters
will have the normal phenotype but will be carriers
of the mutation.
Ova
Xa
(c) If a carrier mates with a male who has the
disorder, there is a 50% chance that each
child born to them will have the disorder,
regardless of sex. Daughters who do not have
the disorder will be carriers, where as males
without the disorder will be completely free of
the recessive allele.

What are Barr bodies?
- 1 of the 2 Xs (females) becomes almost completely inactive during
embryonic development in mammals
- Inactive X in each ♀ cell condenses into a Barr body
- Most genes on the Barr body are not expressed
- Barr body chromosomes are reactivated in ovary cells that
give rise to ova
- Calico cats

Aneuploidy – an offspring that has an abnormal # of chromosomes (formed from a
nondisjunction gamete)
Trisomic – 2n + 1, Monosomic – 2n – 1
Polyploidy – more than 2 complete chromosome SETS: 3n – triploid, 4n - tetraploid
Crossing over is NOT exact (Figure 19.18)
This leads to deletions & duplications.
Figure 15.14 Alterations of chromosome structure
(a) A deletion removes a chromosomal
segment.
(b) A duplication repeats a segment.
(c) An inversion reverses a segment within
a chromosome.
(d) A translocation moves a segment from
one chromosome to another,
nonhomologous one. In a reciprocal
translocation, the most common type,
nonhomologous chromosomes exchange
fragments. Nonreciprocal translocations
also occur, in which a chromosome
transfers a fragment without receiving a
fragment in return.
