Note from Mrs. Miller………
Recessive Alleles are always
shadowed by dominant alleles.
A recessive allele is written as
a lower case letter like this:
bb
The only way a recessive allele
will show in an organism’s
phenotype is if the organism
does not have a dominant
allele.
Dominant Alleles always
overpower the recessive
alleles.
If an organism carries a
dominant allele in its
genotype, it will express it in
its phenotype no matter what
its other allele might be.
A dominant allele is written as
an upper case letter like this:
BB
Let’s say that you inherited the
dominant allele for brown eyes
from your dad and the
recessive allele for blue eyes
from your mom.
Your genotype would be: Bb
Your phenotype would be
brown eyes because brown is
Dominant.
5 toes = Dominant allele (T)
4 toes = Recessive allele (t)
Look at the picture of the Elephant family. If I told you that the mother elephant has four toes, and the
father elephant has four, could you predict what their baby elephants would have? Roll your mouse
over the picture and explain your answer here:

Read down the page to see how we would use Punnet Squares to predict the genotypes of the baby
elephants, then complete the activity below to practice what you have learned.
Explore a combination with one parent having the genotype Ee (detached earlobes) and the
other parent having the genotype ee (attached earlobes).
E e
Remember that: e
E = detached earlobes
e = attached earlobes e
What percent chance does the offspring have of having the phenotype of attached earlobes?
What percent chance does an offspring have of possessing the phenotype of detached earlobes?

The family tree below shows the family history of a certain kind of dog.
This tree shows what kind of color and hair type runs in the dog’s family. This chart is used to show
__________ ______________ of specific traits. We call this type of chart a Pedigree Chart. Pedigree
Charts are popular tools used by dog and horse breeders.
We also use pedigree charts to ________________ the ______________________ that a parent will
pass a specific gene on to their child.
One disease that is of great concern for certain populations is ___________ __________
_______________. This disease causes an individual to make abnormal red blood cells shaped like a
sickle.
Sickle Cell Anemia is a ___________ allele, so in the presence of the dominant allele (for the normal
cell), the individual will not have the disease. However, if an individual inherits ______ ____________
alleles, they will have the disease.
What is the purpose of a pedigree chart?
