Section 1 Mendel’s Legacy
Objectives
• Describe how Mendel was able to control how his pea plants
were pollinated.
• Describe the steps in Mendel’s experiments on true-breeding
garden peas.
• Distinguish between dominant and recessive traits.
• State two laws of heredity that were developed from Mendel’s
work.
• Describe how Mendel’s results can be explained by scientific
knowledge of genes and chromosomes.
Chapter 9
Section 1 Mendel’s Legacy
Gregor Mendel
• The study of how characteristics are
transmitted from parents to offspring is called
genetics.
• Personal Information
• Mendel’s Garden Peas
– Mendel observed characteristics of pea
plants.
– Traits are genetically determined variants
of a characteristic (like hair color or eye
color).
– Each characteristic occurred in two
contrasting traits (one from each parent).
Chapter 9
Section 1 Mendel’s Legacy
Gregor Mendel, continued
• Mendel’s Methods
– Mendel used cross-pollination techniques in which pollen
is transferred between flowers of two different plants.
• Mendel bred plants for several generations that were truebreeding for specific traits and called these the P generation.
• Offspring of the P generation were called the F1 generation.
• Offspring of the F1 generation were called the F2 generation.

Three Steps of Mendel’s Experiments

Section 1 Mendel’s Legacy
Mendel’s Results and Conclusions
• Recessive and Dominant Traits
– Mendel concluded that inherited characteristics are
controlled by two factors that occur in pairs.
• dominant - trait that masked the other, like Purple.
• recessive - trait that was masked, like white
• The Law of Segregation
– States that a pair of factors is segregated, or
separated, during the formation of gametes.
(remember homologous chromosomes separate)
Chapter 9
Section 1 Mendel’s Legacy
Mendel’s Results and Conclusions, continued
• The Law of Independent Assortment
– The law of independent assortment states that
factors for individual characteristics are distributed
to gametes independent of one another.
– The law of independent assortment is observed
only for genes that are located on different
chromosomes (remember the homologous
chromosomes line up is random and crossing over
can occur)
Chapter 9
Section 1 Mendel’s Legacy
Support for Mendel’s Conclusions
• Mendel’s factors are called alleles, or alternative
forms of a gene.
• One allele for each trait is passed from each parent
to the offspring.
– TRAIT or GENE = Color of flower
– ALLELES = purple and white

Section 2 Genetic Crosses
Chapter 9
Section 2 Genetic Crosses
Objectives
• Differentiate between the genotype and the phenotype of an
organism.
• Explain how probability is used to predict the results of genetic
crosses.
• Use a Punnett square to predict the results of monohybrid and
dihybrid genetic crosses.
• Explain how a testcross is used to show the genotype of an
individual whose phenotype expresses the dominant trait.
• Differentiate a monohybrid cross from a dihybrid cross.
Chapter 9
Section 2 Genetic Crosses
Genetic TERMS
The phenotype is the appearance of an organism, like
purple or white
The genotype is the genetic makeup of an organism,
the alleles.
• Heterozygous – two different alleles (Pp)
• Homozygous – two alleles are the same
(dominant – PP or recessive - pp).
Chapter 9
Section 2 Genetic Crosses
Probability
• Probability is the likelihood that a specific event will
occur.
• A probability may be expressed as a decimal, a
percentage, or a fraction.
• A Punnett square can be used to predict the outcome of
genetic crosses.
• A cross in which one characteristic is tracked is a
monohybrid cross.
Chapter 9
Section 2 Genetic Crosses
Monohybrid Cross
of Heterozygous
Plants
In rabbits the allele for black coat color (B) is dominant over the allele for
brown coat color (b). What is the genotypic ratio and phenotypic ratio be
for a cross between a homozygous black rabbit and homozygous brown
rabbit?
White (W) hair in sheep is caused by the dominant gene while black (w)
hair is recessive. A heterozygous white male and a black female are
parents of a black lamb. What is the probability that their next lamb will be
white? What are the genotypic and phenotypic ratios?
In humans, polydactyly (an extra finger on each hand or toe on each foot) is due to a
dominant gene. When one parent is polydactylous, but heterozygous, and the other
parent is normal, what are the genotypic and phenotypic ratios of their children?
Chapter 9
Section 2 Genetic Crosses
Predicting Results of Monohybrid Crosses, continued
• A testcross, in which an individual of unknown
genotype is crossed with a homozygous recessive
individual, can be used to determine the genotype of
an individual whose phenotype expresses the
dominant trait.
Chapter 9
Section 2 Genetic Crosses
Predicting Results of Monohybrid Crosses, continued
• Incomplete dominance two or more alleles
influence the phenotype and results in a phenotype
are intermediates between the dominant trait and the
recessive trait (so there is a blending of alleles).
1. Red snapdragon is
crossed with pink
snapdragon, what
are the possible
genotypes and
phenotypes?
2. Pink snapdragon
is crossed with white
snapdragon, what
are the possible
genotypes and
phenotypes?

Section 2 Genetic Crosses
Predicting Results of Monohybrid Crosses, continued
• Codominance occurs when both alleles for a gene
are expressed in a heterozygous offspring.
COWS:
BB = Black
BW = Black and White
WW = White
Cross a black male with a black and white female, determine
the possible genotype and phenotypes for the offspring?

Predicting Results of Dihybrid Crosses
• Dihybrid cross two traits are tracked at the same time.
Round (R) is dominant to wrinkled (r)
Green (G) is dominant to yellow (g)
Homozygous round yellow pea plant is crossed with wrinkled
homozygous green pea plant, what are the possible genotypes
and phenotypes of the offspring.
