Chromosome
•46 inside every cell•Chromosomes are in the cell in pairs. •One came from mom and one came from
dad.
Mom’s Chromosome
Dad’s Chromosome
DNA - deoxyribonucleic (say: dee-ox-see-ri-bo-nyoo-clay-ik) acid
•Long strands of genetic code•Makes up chromosomes in plants and
animalsDNA
Traits
•Things that you inherit from your parents•Examples: Hair color, eye color and
having freckles or not•Through sexual reproduction you
inherited a set of traits
Traits•Pairs of letters are used to define genes in
your body•CAPTIAL LETTERS are used to represent
DOMINANT genes• lower case letters are used to represent
recessive genes•Dominant trait: If you receive even one of
these in the pair, you will get a specific trait.•Recessive trait: You have to have two of
these in the pair to get a specific trait
Genotypes
•The letter associated with the gene▫Example: W (dominant widow’s peak) w
(recessive no widow’s peak)
Phenotypes
•This is the "outward, physical manifestation“•The actual physical trait
▫Example: Widows Peak
Practice:B – brown hair b – red hair
My genes: Bb
What color hair will I have?
Is Bb the phenotype or the genotype?
Are my genes heterozygous or homozygous?
Practice:A – attached earlobe a – unattached earlobe
My genes: aa
What will my earlobes do?
Is attached earlobe the phenotype or the genotype?
Is my genotype homozygous or heterozygous?
Practice:D – dimples d – no dimples
My genes: DD
Do I have dimples or not?
What is the genotype?
Is my genotype heterozygous or homozygous?
Quiz F – freckles f – no freckles
My genes: FF
Do I have freckles or not?
What is the phenotype?
What is the genotype?
Is my genotype heterozygous or homozygous?
Which parent carried the dominant gene?
What is a PUNNETT SQUARE?•A tool to predict the probability of
certain traits in offspring that shows the different ways alleles can combine
•A way to show phenotype & genotype•A chart that shows all the possible combinations of alleles that can result when genes are crossed
Using a PUNNETT SQUARE
To set up a Punnett square, draw a large square, and then divide it into 4 equal sections (also squares). It should look something like this:
Using a PUNNETT SQUARE•Now you need two parents to mate, ones
with a known genotype
• For example, Brown hair (genotype BB) and blonde hair (genotype Bb). BB x Bb
• In this scenario, the Mom has brown hair. The dad blonde hair.
Using a PUNNETT SQUARE
•The two-letter combinations are the possible genotypes of offspring
•They are: BB, Bb, BB, and Bb genotypes
•From this it is possible to determine the probability (chance) that a baby will have a brown phenotype (2/4 or 50%) or a blonde phenotype (2/4 or 50%)
Using a PUNNETT SQUARE
Place one of the parents on top, and one on the left. You should get a something similar to this:

Does it work with animals and plants?
•Yes, all of this works the same way in determining the outcome of combining animals and plants.
•How can we relate this to selective breeding?
•How can we relate this to genetic engineering?
