protection against certain diseases
Inability to absorb enough in areas of
less-powerful sunlight would have
decreased life expectancies in our
African ancestors

DIHYBRID CROSSES

traits)
Mendel also asked the question?
Does the gene that determines if a seed
is round or wrinkled have anything to
do with the gene for seed shape?
Must a seed that is yellow
also be round?

What will happen if there is a recessive
trait on the X chromosome?
Sex linked traits
Examples of X-linked traits:

disorders to their sons?
Pedigree Chart

Building a Pedigree Chart
Inheritance Pattern: normal melanin protein is produced by an
autosomal dominant allele; albinism results from a lack of melanin
and is caused by an autosomal recessive allele.
Use the letter A or a to represent dominant/recessive forms of
albinism.
Two normally-pigmented parents have 3 children. The
first child (a girl) and their second child (a boy) have
normal pigmentation. Their third child (a girl) has
albinism. That girl marries a normally pigmented male
and they have four children. The first three (two girls
and a boy) have normal pigmentation. Their fourth child
(a girl) has albinism like her mother.

pedigree chart of an:
a.) autosomal dominant trait
b.) autosomal recessive trait
c.) X-linked dominant trait
d.) X-linked recessive trait
e.) Y-linked trait
