HEREDITY:
• SC.7.L.16.1 Understand and explain that every organism requires a set of instructions that specifies its traits, that this hereditary information.
• Objective: I can describe what heredity is because I can identify traits and characteristics

What is heredity? • .
• Heredity is the passing of traits from parents to offspring.
• Traits, such as eye color, result from the information stored in the genetic material

What did Gregor Mendel discover about heredity?
• Gregor Mendel was an Austrian monk – in the 1800’s.
He did the first controlled experiments in heredity.
• His research gave scientists a
basic understanding of Genetics – the study of how traits are passed from parents to offspring

• Mendel studied seven characteristics of pea plants
• A characteristic is a feature that has different forms in a population.

• The different forms of a characteristic are called traits.
• The seven different characteristics Mendel studied were:
characteristic traits?
plant height
flower and pod position
seed shape
seed color
pod shape
pod color
flower color

Is flower color a trait or a characteristic?

How did Mendel perform his experiments?
![Page 9: Mendel and Heredity - 7th Grade Scienceakbrownscience.weebly.com/.../mendel_and_heredity_pt1.pdfMendel and Heredity HEREDITY: •SC.7.L.16.1 Understand and explain that every organism](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022053005/5f0927397e708231d4257ad4/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
• 1. He started with plants that were true-breeding – plants that
always produce the same trait in their offspring
• Ex/ Purple flowers that always has offspring with purple flowers
• And white flowers that always have offspring with white flowers
• He crossed a purple flowered plant with a white flowered plant
How did Mendel perform his experiments?

• 2. He took the pollen from one plant and put it on the other – cross pollinated
Results: 3. The first generation plants all had purple flowers.
Conclusions: 4. Purple = dominant trait – the one that masks
(covers up) the other White – Recessive trait – the one that seems to disappear

• 5. He crossed 2 of the first generation purple plants.
• The second generation plants had about ¾ purple and ¼ white.

What did Gregor Mendel conclude about heredity?
• After analysing his results, Mendel concluded that 2 factors control each inherited trait.
• Some traits could only be observed if a plant had two of the same factors.
(like white flowers) • A plant with two different factors would show the dominant factor but still
pass on both factors to its offspring.
• Today scientists call the factors that control traits genes • They call the different forms of the gene alleles. Ex: Gene for flower color has 2 alleles purple and white

We will go through the most common traits that people have
On your sheet, record if you have the mentioned trait or not
You may have to ask your neighbor for help

What is heredity?
What is dominant?
What is recessive?
What is an allele
A farmer crosses a true breeding tall pea plant with a true breeding short pea plant. All of the offspring are tall. Explain these results.
If the farmer crosses 2 of the new (1st gneration) tall pea plants – what can he expect his new pea plants to look like

IFC : Write the question and the sentence of your answer choice for the IFC questions
Mendel was studying the trait of seed color in Pea plants. He crossed yellow seeds and green seeds and found all of the offspring were yellow. 1. What are the 2 alleles of this trait? 2. Which allele was dominant? Why? 3. Which was recessive? Why?

How are traits inherited?
• Mendel’s ideas can be even further explained by our modern understanding of DNA
Genes are segments of DNA found in
chromosomes They give instructions for producing a
certain characteristic Alleles – the different forms of a gene • Each offspring gets one allele from
each parent

• Heterozygous - An organism with one dominant and one recessive allele for a gene is for that gene – (sometimes called hybrid)
homozygous - An organism with two of the same alleles is for that gene. (can be either 2 recessive alleles or 2 dominant alleles Example: _________ is heterozygous ________ and ________ are homozygous

How do genes determine traits?
.
Genotype
• GENES
• The combination of alleles
that you inherited from your
parent
• Heterozygous or Homozygous
• Ex: Pp or PP or pp
Phenotype
•PYSICAL FEATURES
•Observable Trait
• Ex: Purple or white
