different alleles = Pp

Law of independent assortment

different loci (genes) separate into gametes independently non-homologous chromosomes align independently classes of gametes produced in equal amounts YR = Yr = yR = yr only true for genes on separate chromosomes or on same chromosome but so far apart that crossing over happens frequently

Law or independent assortment

dihybrid (or more) cross 2 or more traits genes on separate chromosomes assort into gametes independently established by Metaphase 1 Exception: linked genes

during meiosis, alleles segregate homologous chromosomes separate ● each allele for a trait is packaged into a separate gamete

The process depicted in the image above is best summarized by which description?

during meiosis, crossing over leads to recombination of alleles between homologous chromosomes

Y chromosome

few genes other than SRY sex-determining region master regulator for maleness turns on genes for production of male hormones many effects = pleiotropy!

dominant allele

functional protein masks other alleles

gametes are

haploid

Carriers

have a normal phenotype because one "normal" allele produces enough of the required protein

Inversion

occurs when a chromosome fragment breaks off and reattaches to its original position but backwards!!! So now the part of the fragment originally at the attachment point is now at the end of the chromosome.

The Rule of Addition.

i. When calculating the probability that any of two or more mutually exclusive events will occur, you need to add together their individual probabilities. 1. If you are tossing a die, what is the probability that it will land on either the side with 4 spots or the side with 5 spots? a. 1/6 + 1/6 = 1/3

The Rule of Multiplication.

i. When calculating the probability that two or more independent events will occur together in a specific combination, multiply the probabilities of each of the two events. 1. The probability of a coin landing face up two times in two flips is ½ x ½=1/4 . 2. If you cross two organisms with the genotypes AABbCc and AaBbCc, the probability of an offspring having the genotype AaBbcc is ½ x ½ x ¼ = 1/16

three forms of the gene (alleles) that control the ABO blood group

iA, iB, and i. You have two alleles (one from your mother and one from your father), which are referred to as your genotype. The inheritance of the alleles is co-dominant, meaning that if the allele is present, it gets expressed

Genotype blood types

iAiA or iAi - Both genotypes produce the A protein (type A). • iBiB or iBi - Both genotypes produce the B protein (type B). • iAiB - This genotype produces the A and B protein (type AB). • ii - This genotype produces no protein (type O).

Diploid organism

inherits 2 sets of chromosomes, 1 from each parent homologous chromosomes like having 2 editions of encyclopedia

X-linked conditions are more common in men than in women because

men need to inherit only one copy of the recessive allele for the condition to be fully expressed

law of independent assortment refers to

metaphase 1 where homologous chromosomes can line up on either side of the metaphase plate

Law of segregation

monohybrid cross single trait each allele segregates into separate gametes established by Metaphase 1

The range of human skin colors is caused by a variety of genes, each of which has at least 2 alleles. This is an example of

multiple alleles

A person with turner syndrome has only 1 x chromosome. This means one of their gametes was missing a chromosome. Which of the following is why gametes sometimes lack a complete chromosome?

nondisjunction

Duplication

occurs when a chromosomal fragment broke off (causing the deletion above) becomes attached to its sister chromatid. o Zygote will get a double dose of the genes located on that chromosome.

Deletion

occurs when a chromosomal fragment is lost, o Results in chromosome with missing genes.

Nondisjunction

occurs when the members of a pair of homologous chromosomes do not separate properly during meiosis I, or sister chromatids dont separate properly during meiosis II. ⮚ One gamete receives two copies of the chromosome while the other gamete receives none.

X chromosome

other genes/traits beyond sex determination mutations: hemophilia AP Biology Duchenne muscular dystrophy

The physical appearance of an organism based on traits is

phenotype

genetic recombination

production of offspring with a new combination of genes inherited from the parents. ⮚ Many genetic crosses yield some offspring with the same phenotype as one of the parents (referred to as parental types) ⮚ Some offspring with phenotypes are different from either parent (referred to as recombinants).

Pleiotropy

property of a gene that causes it to have multiple phenotypic effects. o Sickle-cell disease has multiple symptoms all due to a single defective gene.

P= purple, pp = white. The offspring of a cross between two heterozygous purple-flowering plants (Pp x Pp) results in

purple-flowered plants and white-flowered plants

Homozygous

same alleles = PP, pp

Two plants are crossed, resulting in offspring with a 3:1 ratio for a particular trait. What does this suggest?

that the parents were both heterozygous

what is a genome

the complete complement of an organism's genes

the parent is heterozygous for the trait

How do the two members of a pair of homologous chromosomes differ from each other?

the precise sequence of the DNA within each of the chromosomes

independent assortment of chromosomes is a result of

the random and independent way in which each pair of homologous chromosomes line up at the metaphase plate during meiosis 1

how would DNA in a horse muscle cell compare with the DNA in a horse sperm cell

the sperm cell would have half as much DNA as the muscle cell

A plant with purple flowers is allowed to self-pollinate. Generation after generation, it produces purple flowers. This is an example of

true breeding

Which of the following statements about genes is incorrect

under normal circumstances, each chromosome contains precisely 1 gene

Crossing Over:

⮚ Explains why some linked genes get separated during meiosis ⮚ During meiosis, unlinked genes follow independent assortment because they are located on different chromosomes. ⮚ Linked genes are located on the same chromosome and are not predicted to follow independent assortment. o HOWEVER, sometimes genetic crosses give results that seem to indicate some independent assortment has occurred, even when genes are on the same chromosome. ▪ These results are NOT due to independent assortment ▪ Research shows that the farther apart two genes are on a chromosome, the higher the probability that crossing over will occur between them. • The likelihood of crossing over between different genes on the same chromosome is expressed as a percent.
