vocabulary
sexual reproduction -
2 parents give rise to Offspring that have unique combinations of genes inherited from the
2 parents
meiosis creates haploid from diploid cells
fertilization combines 2 haploid cells back to diploid
asexual reproduction a single individual passes genes to offspring wout fusion of gametes
-
genetic variation only arises from mutations (slow) ; beneficial in non-changing environment where clones are favored
a clone is a Identical individuals from same parent
group of genetically < produced
asexually (mitosis)
diploid contains 2 sets of chromosomes one from each parent (2n) 2 haploids unite during fertilization
-
,
haploid-contains only I set of chromosomes (n) to make a diploid
homologous chromosomes the 2 chromosomes in each pair
-
sister chromatids-joined copies of the original chromosome, homologous pair
attachedbyCentromereareatid S-chromatids from different chromosomes

gene-DNA that specifies RNA and sometimes proteins

variation in the next generation is a slow process

Module 2 : Mendelian Genetics - chromosomal Inheritance
Inheritance patterns of
·
phenotypes can be predicted based on Mendelian Inheritance -
chromosomal linkage
vocabulary Care diploid): have 23 pairs of chromosomes
O
somatic cell-body cells
·
gamete-reproductive cells (are haploid) ; each cell carries only one copy of each chromosome
homozygous/true breeding a diploid organism w/ 2 Identical alleles for a gene (or character) < P, pp

:
Mendel's 1st Law of segregation
& for each character an organism Inherits 2 alleles, I from each parent
,
①
alternative
& versions of "genes" (alleles) account for variations in inherited characteristics
alleles separate from each other in the formation of the gametes (the gametes unite at random
·
during fertilization)
combinations of sperm -
< possible egg in fertilization can be shown
using punnett square
Mendel's 2nd Law of segregation
·
each pair of alleles line up ind. of other alleles during meiosis
alleles controlling
one trait do not affect the transmission of alleles for another trait
·
complex Inheritance (Mendel didn't account for these
complete dominance occurs when phenotypes of the heterozygote and dominant homozygote are
·
-
Identical ; only need I dominant allele
Incomplete dominance the phenotype of F, hybrids is somewhere btwn the phenotypes of the 2
· -
parental varieties ; one allele does not completely dominant (ex : F hubvids are pink from red-white flowers ,
codominance both alleles are expressed
· -
multiple alleles-genes can have multiple alleles (each diploid Individual still only carnes 2 diff
·
alleles but a
variety of alleles can make up these 2)
