What is the difference between phenotype and genotype?

View Answer
What is the purpose of a Punnett Square?

View Answer

What do the terms heterozygous and homozygous mean?



View Answer

Cross a heterozygous blue eyed female with a homozygous brown-eyed male. Brown is dominant to blue. List the possible genotypes and their percentages.  List the possible phenotypes and their percentages.



View Answer
Sickle Cell Anemia is a recessive disorder symbolized by "a". What is the likelihood a child will have the disorder if both parents are heterozygous for the disorder? List all possible genotypes.

View Answer

Huntington's Disease is caused by a dominant allele (H). What is the likelihood of the children having this disorder if both parents are heterozygous? List the genotypes.



View Answer
What is a sex linked trait?

View Answer
What symbols should be used for the games in a Punnett Square for sex-linked traits?

View Answer

Why does the "Y" allele for males not need an "exponent"?



View Answer

If a male child has the allele for baldness, a sex-linked trait, which parent did he inherit the allele for baldness from?



View Answer

If a bald man has a child with a woman that does not carry the baldness allele, what are the chances that their child will be bald? List all possible genotypes.



View Answer

What do the different shapes in a pedigree analysis represent?



View Answer
What does a shaded shape in a pedigree analysis represent?

View Answer
If a daughter has a different phenotype than her parents, what is her genotype?

View Answer
Why are females more likely to be carriers of a recessive sex linked trait?

View Answer

When looking at a pedigree analysis, how do you determine if someone is a carrier?



View Answer
Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase
A karyotype is a photograph of chromosomes.

The diploid number is the number of chromosomes in a cell with two sets of chromosomes; has two sets of each gene; present in body cells (somatic cells)

The haploid number is the number of chromosomes in a cell with a single set of chromosomes; present in gametes (sex cells) only; half of the diploid number.

Meiosis increases genetic variability by separating homologous chromosomes into individual gametes during Meiosis I and through the process of crossing over during Prophase I
Alleles can be recessive or dominant. Dominant alleles are always expressed.
Alleles are the different forms of a trait (e.g., blue, brown, or green eyes)
Alleles separate into different gametes during meiosis
Recessive traits can be carried but not shown. Future generations may have homozygous recessive combinations resulting in the reappearance of a "lost" phenotype.
Phenotypes are traits that can be physically observed. Genotypes are the "genes" that determine your physical appearance; invisible to the observer.
Geneticists create Punnett Squares to predict the future genotypes and phenotypes of individuals.

Heterozygous means the individual is a hybrid, or that they are carrying a dominant and recessive allele.

 

A heterozygote may also be called a "carrier" since they carry an allele that is not shown.

 

Homozygous means that they have two of the same allele, both dominant or both recessive.

Genotypes:  Bb, BB

Phenotypes:  0% blue; 100% brown

25% of children with the disorder. AA, aa, Aa

75%. Hh, HH, hh

A sex linked trait is carried on the sex chromosomes ONLY. Usually on the X chromosome.
XX, XY; Each X should have an "exponent" to show the allele that is being carried.

Y chromosomes do not usually carry sex linked genes.

His mother, (X chromosome with the recessive allele)

0% for all children; 100% of females will be carriers; and none of the males will carry the trait or show the trait.  XBXb, XBY

Squares are males and circles are females

Shaded shapes represent an individual that is affected by the gene of interest. The affected allele may be dominant or recessive.
She must be homozygous recessive
Because the X chormosome carreiers many traits that can be passed down to female offspring, but they will not show the trait unless the father also contributes a recessive trait on the x chromosome. If a male carriers a recessive sex linked trait, he will be showing it.

A carrier is someone who has one recessive allele. You would need to look at their parents and/or their offspring. If any of their offpsring show a recessive trait then you know each of the parents must carry the allele even if they don't show it.

 

A carrier is also heterozygous for that trait.
