Mendel &
Heredity
Ch. 6.3
Gregor Mendel
Mid-1800’s he explained how traits
are inherited from parents and
passed to offspring
Every organism inherits their specific
traits (AKA genes)
One from Mom and one from Dad
Mendel made this discovery by
breeding peas
Mendel’s Pea Plant Experiments
1. Controlled the breeding
2. Used purebred plants
3. Observed “either-or” traits that appeared in
only two alternate forms
Why were these factors important for his
experiment?
Traits Observed
How did Mendel discover
dominant/recessive traits?
Punnett Squares!

Mendel’s Conclusions
1.) Traits are inherited as discrete units
2.) Organisms inherit two copies of each gene,
one from each parent
3.) Organisms donate only one copy of each
gene in their gametes. Thus the two copies of
each gene segregate, or separate, during
gamete formation
(#2 & 3 = Law of segregation)

of Inheritance
Ch. 7.2
Incomplete Dominance
= where heterozygous phenotype is somewhere
between two homozygous types.
AKA= Blending of traits
Ex: colors of certain flowers where:
RR= red
Rr= pink
rr=white
Neither allele is completely dominant or
recessive!
Codominance
= where both alleles of a gene are
expressed completely
Both traits are fully and separately
shown
Ex: blood types where a person can
have-
A, B, AB, or O
Blood Types
We always use the letter “I” AND superscript to
show blood genotypes
IA and IB are codominant and i is recessive
Blood Types
So what does this mean for blood donations and
transfusions?
Blood Types
So what does this mean for blood donations and
transfusions?
Antigens are proteins on the blood that prevent
transfusions from foreign blood types
A= can only get blood from IAIA or ii
B= can only get blood from IB IB or ii
AB= can donate to IAIA or IB IB or IA IB, but can only
receive from IA IB or ii
O= is a universal donor, but can only accept
transfusions from ii
Polygenetics
= traits produced by two or more genes
Ex: human skin color (produces a range or
spectrum of colors)
What’s another example?
Epistasis
Epistatic genes= can interfere with the expression
of other genes
Mice and other mammals have 5 genes to
determine color (making them polygenetic)
The 5th gene can overshadow all other genes
Ex: Albinism
Dihybrid crosses
=crosses that look at
inheritance of two different
traits.
Ex: peas that are
yellow/green with
smooth/wrinkled skin
Exit Slip
A man with homozygous type A blood and a
woman with heterozygous type B blood want to
know the probability of having a child with type
AB blood.

Genetic Disorders

genetic disorders
Brainstorm WHY?
Genetic Disorders
The likelihood of inheriting a sex-linked disorder
depends both on the sex of the child and which
parent carries the disorder-causing allele.
Do you think a boy or girl is more likely to have a
sex-linked disorder if the mother is a carrier?
Genetic Disorders in History
Queen Victoria of the British royal family was a
carrier for a sex-linked disorder called hemophilia
Hemophilia= lacks proteins that allows blood to
clot.
She passed this disease to her son, and he then
passed it to his daughter who was a carrier.
Because royal families tend to marry into other
royal families, several other countries blood lines
now had hemophilia “The Royal Disease”
Pedigrees
Pedigree= chart that can help trace the
phenotypes and genotypes in a family
Helps to determine whether people carry
recessive alleles
Males= squares
Females= circles
Shaded= affected/ shows the trait
Half-shaded= carrier for the trait
Pedigrees
The disease can be carried on autosomes or sex
chromosomes
Autosomal= gives males & females 50% chance of
inheritance
Patterns of Inheritance
1.
Autosomal Dominant
The inheritance of one mutated copy of a gene results in trait / disease.
These traits / disorders tend to occur in every generation of an affected
family.
Examples: Huntington disease, polydactyly
2.
Autosomal Recessive
The inheritance of two mutated copies of a gene results in disease.
An individual that inherits a single copy of the mutated gene is known as
a carrier. Both males and females can be carriers.
Examples: cystic fibrosis, sickle-cell anemia, Tay-Sachs disease
3.
Sex-Linked (X-Linked Recessive)
The inheritance of a mutated gene on an X chromosome may result in
disease.
Only females can be carriers, therefore men are more frequently
affected
by these types of disease.
Examples: colorblindness, hemophilia
Harry is the son of Lily and James Potter. Lily Potter had two
parents and a sister without any magical ability (muggles).
Assuming magical ability is recessive, what are the genotypes
of Harry Potter’s maternal grandparents?
Construct a Punnett square to justify your answer.
Describe Harry Potter’s genotype using genetics
vocabulary.
Harry Potter’s maternal grandparents are heterozygous, Mm:
M m
M MM Mm
m Mm mm
Harry Potter, like his mother Lily, is homozygous recessive for
magical ability.
