11-1: The Work of Gregor Mendel
• heredity: set of characteristics an organism receives from its parents • genetics: study of
heredity

Reproduction in Pea Plants• pollen is the male sex cell• eggs are the female sex cells
• Able to reproduce….
• self pollination: pollen fertilizes an egg from the same plant
• cross pollination: pollen from one plant fertilizes an egg from another plant
![Page 5: Chapter 11: Introduction to Genetics. 11-1: The Work of Gregor Mendel heredity: set of characteristics an organism receives from its parents genetics:](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022020219/56649f445503460f94c645c5/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Pea Plant Traits• Seven traits with two options
• Crossed plants with different characteristics of same trait– tall with short– green seeds with yellow seeds– round seeds with wrinkled
seeds
• alleles: different forms of a gene
![Page 6: Chapter 11: Introduction to Genetics. 11-1: The Work of Gregor Mendel heredity: set of characteristics an organism receives from its parents genetics:](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022020219/56649f445503460f94c645c5/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
True-Breeding
• True-breeding plants are plants that only carry one allele for a trait.
• If these plants are allowed to self-pollinate, they will produce offspring identical to themselves.– TALL plants produce TALL plants– Green seeded plants produce Green seeded plants

Mendel’s First Experiment• What did Mendel do in his
experiments?
• Prevented self pollination• Controlled cross pollination– Removed male flower parts– Pollen from plant A with egg from
plant B
• used purebreds– Seed color or plant height

Mendel’s Results
• offspring were hybrids: organisms produced by crossing parents with differing characteristics
• all hybrids had the characteristics of only one parent
![Page 9: Chapter 11: Introduction to Genetics. 11-1: The Work of Gregor Mendel heredity: set of characteristics an organism receives from its parents genetics:](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022020219/56649f445503460f94c645c5/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Mendel’s Conclusions
• 1. individual factors, called genes, control each trait
• 2. principle of dominance: some factors or alleles are dominant whereas others are recessive
![Page 10: Chapter 11: Introduction to Genetics. 11-1: The Work of Gregor Mendel heredity: set of characteristics an organism receives from its parents genetics:](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022020219/56649f445503460f94c645c5/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Mendel’s Second Experiment• Crossed F1 hybrid plants
– P generation: purebred group
– F1 generation: hybrid group
– F2 generation: offspring of hybrids
• F2 plants - the recessive traits reappeared

Mendel’s Results• Ratios of Mendel’s Crosses
• phenotype: physical characteristics
• genotype: genetic makeup• homozygous: two identical alleles
for a particular trait– TT, homozygous dominant– tt, homozygous recessive
• heterozygous: having two different alleles for the same trait– Tt

Genes and Alleles• genes: unit that
determines traits• alleles: different forms
of a gene– have two alleles for
each trait – one from each
parent– sex cells contain one
allele– when sex cells
combine, create cells with two sets of genes
