Pedigrees
What shape represents a biological male?
a Square.
Capital Letter.
23
Is Aa a genotype or phenotype?
A genotype.
Draw what a Pedigree looks like.
Circle = female
Square = male
Shaded in = have the trait
What shape represents a biological female?
A circle.
Give an example of a homozygous genotype.
HH hh
If the offspring's last pair of chromosomes is XX, are they a biological female, biological male, or intersex?
A biological female
Draw what a Punnett square looks like.
4 boxes with possible offspring genotypes.
If an individual is shaded in, do they have the trait?
Yes.
White flowers are dominant to purple flowers. A parent is heterozygous. What is this parent's genotype?
Ww
If Jim is a biological male cow, and he has the trait we're looking for, what is his shape and is his shape shaded in?
A shaded in square
Draw what a karyotype looks like.
Chromosomes are set up in labeled pairs. The last set is labeled XY or XX for the gender of the child.
If an individual is a circle and shaded in, what is their gender?
a biological female.
White flowers are dominant to purple flowers. A heterozygous mother and a recessive father mate. Create a Punnett square to determine the genotype possibilities of the offspring. The entire Punnett square must be correct in order to receive the points for this question.
Mother: Ww
Father: ww
Offspring: Ww, ww
How does the genetic information in an offspring produced from asexual reproduction compare to its parent's genetic information?
The offspring is a clone of its parent, therefore they have identical genetic information.
Label the slide with the terms: nucleus, chromosome, gene, and DNA.
See slide.
If an individual is a square, and they're NOT shaded in, what is their gender and do they have the trait?
They're a male and they don't have the trait.
Red flowers (RR) are incompletely dominant to White flowers (WW). Create a Punnett square between a red and a white parent. The entire Punnett square must be correct in order to gain these points.
All children are RW/WR
What is the correlational relationship between chromosomes, proteins, and traits?
Chromosomes code for proteins, proteins build the traits.
Create a diagram of a chromosome. Label a gene and describe what an allele is.
A gene is a section of DNA. An allele is a different version of a gene.
