- Slide 2
- What is a pedigree?
- Slide 3
- Pedigree Charts Why do we use them? Then what information do we
use to determine inheritance of traits? Record ancestry and/or
trace the geneology of a trait through the family lines Genetic
Testing Medical History Historical Data Family Records

- Example: Hemophilia in the royal family
- Slide 9
- How is Hemophilia inherited? Sex- Linked Recessive
Disorder
- Slide 10
- What are some clues that you can see in this pedigree that
could tell you this is a sex- linked disorder? Example: Hemophilia
in the royal family
- Slide 11
- Pedigrees Albinism Polydactyly
- Slide 12
- Pedigree Chart
- Slide 13
- How do we read a Pedigree? Which family members are Albino? How
is Ann related to Pam? Bill Sam Pam is Anns Grandmother
- Slide 14
- What are Inheritance Patterns? Inheritance Pattern: The
transmission of genetically encoded traits/conditions/diseases to
offspring In other words: How the gene is transmitted/passed
on.
- Slide 15
- What are the different ways a genetic condition can be
inherited?
- Slide 16
- Autosomal Recessive Skips generations Affects males/females
equally Pedigree may show carriers
- Slide 17
- Autosomal Dominant There will not be carriers those with the
gene will be affected Will probably not skip generations Will
affect males/females equally
- Slide 18
- Sex-Linked Recessive More males affected than females Skips
generations
- Slide 19
- What is the inheritance pattern for this disorder?
- Slide 20
- Autosomal Recessive How do we know? affected skips generations
carriers
- Slide 21
- Enrichment Assignment Create a family pedigree for the
following trait: Ability to taste bitter Mrs. Stewart has strips of
paper called PTC paper that will determine this ability.
- Slide 22
- PTC The ability to taste PTC (bitter) is inherited. BB = strong
bitter taster Bb = somewhat able to taste bitter bb = cannot taste
bitter
- Slide 23
- How to complete the enrichment assignment: 15 possible
enrichment points Have each family member (immediate household
family) taste the PTC paper. Use their responses to identify their
genotypes Create a pedigree that shows the trait throughout your
family 10 points extra if you include pictures of each family
member while tasting the PTC paper.
