Homework Worksheet due tomorrow.
(Heads up: There will be a bunch of practice worksheets this week, because we will be learning a skill that takes practice!)
Family Project due probably Monday March 9. Details forthcoming, I’m just letting you know so you can plan on putting aside some time late next week to work on it. It will require you to get some information from
family members: Parents, siblings, grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins. It’s okay if you’re adopted or not in contact with someone anymore, but if you have concerns, please discuss them with me! :)

Review
With your partner, talk and look up definitions for these terms:ChromosomeGeneGameteTrait
![Page 4: Mendelian Genetics 1. Pick up the handouts. 2. If you didn’t take or finish the exam, see me about making it up. 1. Pick up the handouts. 2. If you didn’t.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051521/5a4d1ad07f8b9ab059970ff3/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
ReviewChromosome: A very long, tightly-
wound strand of DNA. Contains thousands of genes.
Gene: A segment of a chromosome that codes for one protein.
Gamete: A haploid sex cell (sperm and egg).
Trait: The physical characteristic you get from the proteins made by one or more genes.

Genes and Traits This unit is going to be about how we
quantify traits, and how we can predict what versions of genes you, your relatives, and your offspring must have based upon limited information.
(Our next unit will then be taking this same skill and applying it to whole populations.)
Today, there will be several new vocab words. Prepare yourselves!
![Page 6: Mendelian Genetics 1. Pick up the handouts. 2. If you didn’t take or finish the exam, see me about making it up. 1. Pick up the handouts. 2. If you didn’t.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051521/5a4d1ad07f8b9ab059970ff3/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Genes and Traits First, a new word, because saying “version
of a gene” every time is powerfully tiresome.
Allele: A version of a gene. For instance, when we’re talking about the gene for hair color, different alleles may be for black hair, brown hair, blonde hair, and red hair. (Every gene has at least two alleles. Most of
them have more, but for the sake of simplicity, we’ll usually talk about them in terms of just two.)
With your partner: Pick any two human traits that could be coded for by a gene. What could be different alleles of that gene?
![Page 7: Mendelian Genetics 1. Pick up the handouts. 2. If you didn’t take or finish the exam, see me about making it up. 1. Pick up the handouts. 2. If you didn’t.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051521/5a4d1ad07f8b9ab059970ff3/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Genes and Traits
If a gene is a segment of a chromosome that codes for a kind of protein, and an allele is a version of a gene, what do you think an allele is in terms of DNA and chromosomes?
![Page 8: Mendelian Genetics 1. Pick up the handouts. 2. If you didn’t take or finish the exam, see me about making it up. 1. Pick up the handouts. 2. If you didn’t.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051521/5a4d1ad07f8b9ab059970ff3/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Genes and Traits
The gene is the region of the chromosome, the allele is the particular sequence of bases.
![Page 9: Mendelian Genetics 1. Pick up the handouts. 2. If you didn’t take or finish the exam, see me about making it up. 1. Pick up the handouts. 2. If you didn’t.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051521/5a4d1ad07f8b9ab059970ff3/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Genes and Traits
There are two other words that I introduced to you ages and ages ago, does anybody recall what they mean?
Genotype and Phenotype
![Page 10: Mendelian Genetics 1. Pick up the handouts. 2. If you didn’t take or finish the exam, see me about making it up. 1. Pick up the handouts. 2. If you didn’t.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051521/5a4d1ad07f8b9ab059970ff3/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Genes and Traits
Genotype: Your particular combination of alleles.Think “Genotype = Your type of
gene”
Phenotype: Your particular trait or combination of traits. Think “Phenotype = Your
physical type”
![Page 11: Mendelian Genetics 1. Pick up the handouts. 2. If you didn’t take or finish the exam, see me about making it up. 1. Pick up the handouts. 2. If you didn’t.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051521/5a4d1ad07f8b9ab059970ff3/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Genotypes and Phenotypes
Take out the handout w/ the three students’ chromosomes, and the chart.
These are the chromosome #3s for three people.Why do they each have two
chromosome #3s?What observations do you have
about them?
![Page 12: Mendelian Genetics 1. Pick up the handouts. 2. If you didn’t take or finish the exam, see me about making it up. 1. Pick up the handouts. 2. If you didn’t.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051521/5a4d1ad07f8b9ab059970ff3/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Genotypes and Phenotypes When we’re talking about
genotypes, scientists represent the alleles with letters. Usually, each gene will have one kind of
letter, like the letter R. Then, the different alleles are represented by the R being either upper-case or lower-case.
What trait does the gene represented by letters R code for? The other letters?
![Page 13: Mendelian Genetics 1. Pick up the handouts. 2. If you didn’t take or finish the exam, see me about making it up. 1. Pick up the handouts. 2. If you didn’t.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051521/5a4d1ad07f8b9ab059970ff3/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Genotypes and Phenotypes
Compare these students’ tongue-rolling genotypes. What do you notice?
![Page 14: Mendelian Genetics 1. Pick up the handouts. 2. If you didn’t take or finish the exam, see me about making it up. 1. Pick up the handouts. 2. If you didn’t.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051521/5a4d1ad07f8b9ab059970ff3/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Genotypes and Phenotypes Both of Joaquin’s chromosomes have a
tongue-rolling gene with exactly the same sequence of bases. So do both of Darnell’s, though his sequence of bases is different from Joaquin’s.
Jer, on the other hand, has a tongue-rolling gene with one allele on one chromosome, and a different allele on the other chromosome. His two copies of that gene has different sequences from each other.
What does this mean in terms of the proteins these students are making?
![Page 15: Mendelian Genetics 1. Pick up the handouts. 2. If you didn’t take or finish the exam, see me about making it up. 1. Pick up the handouts. 2. If you didn’t.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051521/5a4d1ad07f8b9ab059970ff3/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Genotypes and Phenotypes
We express genotypes as that individual’s two alleles written together, like this:
Joaquin has the genotype rrDarnell has the genotype RRJer has the genotype Rr
By convention, if the two alleles are different, we always write the capital letter first.
![Page 16: Mendelian Genetics 1. Pick up the handouts. 2. If you didn’t take or finish the exam, see me about making it up. 1. Pick up the handouts. 2. If you didn’t.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051521/5a4d1ad07f8b9ab059970ff3/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Genotypes and Phenotypes
Take a moment and fill out the middle column for all three students. Use the information from their chromosomes to correctly write their genotypes. Ignore the “yes and no”
business, we’ll get to that in a moment.
![Page 17: Mendelian Genetics 1. Pick up the handouts. 2. If you didn’t take or finish the exam, see me about making it up. 1. Pick up the handouts. 2. If you didn’t.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051521/5a4d1ad07f8b9ab059970ff3/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Genotypes Alleles aren’t just randomly given a
capital or lower-case letter. The capital letter means something.
Some alleles are dominant. If either of your chromosomes has that allele, you will have that trait. We use capital letters for dominant alleles.
Recessive alleles will only give you that trait if you don’t have the dominant allele anywhere. We use lower-case letters for recessive alleles.
![Page 18: Mendelian Genetics 1. Pick up the handouts. 2. If you didn’t take or finish the exam, see me about making it up. 1. Pick up the handouts. 2. If you didn’t.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051521/5a4d1ad07f8b9ab059970ff3/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Genotypes
Look at the chromosomes.What kind of alleles do the three
students have for tongue-rolling?Which, if any, of them will have
the dominant version of the tongue-rolling trait?
![Page 19: Mendelian Genetics 1. Pick up the handouts. 2. If you didn’t take or finish the exam, see me about making it up. 1. Pick up the handouts. 2. If you didn’t.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051521/5a4d1ad07f8b9ab059970ff3/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

are dominant. TT, YY, UU, KK…Homozygous recessive: Both alleles
are recessive. tt, yy, uu, kk…

Genotypes
Look again at your chromosomes.Find every instance where someone is
homozygous dominant.

Genotypes
Look again at your chromosomes.Find every instance where someone is
homozygous recessive.

Genotypes and Phenotypes
Homozygous dominant and heterozygous people will always have the dominant version of that trait. Only homozygous recessive people will have the recessive version. Discuss with partner in just 15 seconds: why?
![Page 26: Mendelian Genetics 1. Pick up the handouts. 2. If you didn’t take or finish the exam, see me about making it up. 1. Pick up the handouts. 2. If you didn’t.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051521/5a4d1ad07f8b9ab059970ff3/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Phenotypes Let’s finish by analyzing
phenotypes for Joaquin, Darnell, and Jer. Where it says “Yes,” it means that
students has the listed version of the trait.
Where it says “No,” it means that student doesn’t have that version of the trait.
How can we figure out what is the dominant phenotype and what is the recessive phenotype?
![Page 27: Mendelian Genetics 1. Pick up the handouts. 2. If you didn’t take or finish the exam, see me about making it up. 1. Pick up the handouts. 2. If you didn’t.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051521/5a4d1ad07f8b9ab059970ff3/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Genotypes and Phenotypes
Your homework gives you practice with genotypes and phenotypes, heterozygous and homozygous, dominant and recessive. Some points to clarify:Why does everyone have two
alleles for every gene?
![Page 28: Mendelian Genetics 1. Pick up the handouts. 2. If you didn’t take or finish the exam, see me about making it up. 1. Pick up the handouts. 2. If you didn’t.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051521/5a4d1ad07f8b9ab059970ff3/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Genotypes and Phenotypes
Your homework gives you practice with genotypes and phenotypes, heterozygous and homozygous, dominant and recessive. Some points to clarify:Why does everyone have two
alleles for every gene? Because you have 2 chromosomes of every kind, and each chromosome carries one allele for a gene.
![Page 29: Mendelian Genetics 1. Pick up the handouts. 2. If you didn’t take or finish the exam, see me about making it up. 1. Pick up the handouts. 2. If you didn’t.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051521/5a4d1ad07f8b9ab059970ff3/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Genotypes and Phenotypes
Your homework gives you practice with genotypes and phenotypes, heterozygous and homozygous, dominant and recessive. Some points to clarify: For each gene, do you think you got
both alleles from Mom? Both alleles from Dad? One allele from each?
![Page 30: Mendelian Genetics 1. Pick up the handouts. 2. If you didn’t take or finish the exam, see me about making it up. 1. Pick up the handouts. 2. If you didn’t.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051521/5a4d1ad07f8b9ab059970ff3/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Genotypes and Phenotypes Your homework gives you practice with
genotypes and phenotypes, heterozygous and homozygous, dominant and recessive. Some points to clarify: For each gene, you received one allele
from Mom, and one allele from Dad. This is because you came from the zygote created from the fusion of their two haploid gametes, each containing one copy of the chromosome.
Can we tell just by looking at this piece of paper which chromosome Joaquin, Darnell, or Jer got from Mom and which he got from Dad?
![Page 31: Mendelian Genetics 1. Pick up the handouts. 2. If you didn’t take or finish the exam, see me about making it up. 1. Pick up the handouts. 2. If you didn’t.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051521/5a4d1ad07f8b9ab059970ff3/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Genotypes and Phenotypes Your homework gives you practice with
genotypes and phenotypes, heterozygous and homozygous, dominant and recessive. Some points to clarify: Dominant alleles don’t just come from one
kind of parent, they have an equal chance of coming from Mom or from Dad. The only way to tell which allele came from whom is by looking at their genotypes as well as yours.

Genotypes and Phenotypes
Use this time to work on your homework. Get REALLY GOOD at understanding allele vs gene, homozygous vs heterozygous, dominant vs recessive. If you are confused, ask! HELP ME HELP YOU. If you don’t get this now, you’re so going to be toast for the next two weeks. Sad face. :(
