Gregor Mendel In 1865, Gregor Mendel published
studies of inheritance in pea plants.
During sexual reproduction, male and female gametes (reproductive cells; n) join to form a zygote (2n) in the process known as fertilization.
Heredity is…1. Controlled by “factors.” (known
as genes on chromosomes)2. Passed from generation to
generation.3.Predicted Outcomes through
Probability using Punnett Squares.
1902 – Chromosome Theory of Heredity
Genes (Mendels “factors”) are located on chromosomes.
The different forms (variations) of a gene are called Alleles.
This is the basis for the modern science of Genetics.
Genetic Principles Dominant and Recessive
Dominant = seen when present on the chromosome Recessive = only seen when dominant allele is not present on
the chromosome Law of Segregation and Independent Assortment
Randomness Placement of chromosomes within the process of meiosis
Genotype and Phenotype Genotype – using letters to represent the trait’s alleles
Ex: Flower Color - FF, Ff, ff Phenotype – using descriptive words (adjectives) to describe
the trait’s alleles. Ex: Flower Color – Purple or white
Homozygous and Heterozygous Homozygous = same allele variations (TT, tt) Heterozygous = difference allele variations (Tt)

R.C. Punnett In 1905, R.C. Punnett
introduced the Punnett square.
Punnett squares can be used to predict and compare the genetic variations that will result from a cross (pg. 268).

To find the probability that two different events will happen at the same time, multiply the
probabilities of each event happening
separately.
