Controls a Trait? How?


Different alleles (versions) of genes code for
different traits.
We can predict what traits children will have if we
know their parents’ alleles.

How? Where?

OK, so genes code for traits—but how do we
get from a gene to a trait?
 Proteins!
Proteins are the stuff that actually
causes our hair to be blonde, eyes to be brown,
skin to be dark, etc.

Quiz-Quiz-Trade




Find a partner. Quiz them with your question on
your notecard. If they can’t get it right, coach them
(coaching is not telling them the answer!)
Then your partner quizzes you.
Once you have each successfully answered your
question, trade your notecards. Then raise your
hand.
Dap someone with a raised hand. BAM! You’re now
partners.

Pedigree Review – Symbols


Unaffected: normal; no disorder
(but could carry it)
Affected: has the disorder
Recessive Inheritance

If a disease is recessive inheritance, then
you have to have all recessive alleles to get
the disease.
 DD
= unaffected
 Dd = carrier (unaffected, but could give disease
to children)
 dd = affected

If an affected child comes from unaffected
parents, the disease is recessive
inheritance.
Recessive inheritance
Affected children may come from unaffected parents
Dominant Inheritance

If a disease is dominant inheritance, then
having even ONE dominant allele gives you
the disease.
 DD
= affected
 Dd = affected
 dd = unaffected

If an unaffected child comes from affected
parents, the disease is dominant
inheritance.
Dominant Inheritance
Unaffected children may come
from affected parents
Sex-Linked Inheritance

If a disease is sex-linked inheritance, then it
is attached to the X chromosome. Men are
much more likely to be affected than
women.
 XX
= normal woman
 XY = normal man
 X*X = carrier woman
 X*X* = affected woman
 X*Y = affected man
