Mendel’s ExperimentsMendel’s Experiments He did the experiment by both self-pollinating (pollen is not He did the experiment by both self-pollinating (pollen is not
transferred to another plant, the plant uses its pollen) and transferred to another plant, the plant uses its pollen) and cross-pollinating (cross-fertilization: transferring pollen from cross-pollinating (cross-fertilization: transferring pollen from one plant to the other)one plant to the other)
His experimentHis experiment 1. He crossed a purple flower with a purple flower producing 1. He crossed a purple flower with a purple flower producing
plants with purple flowers and a white flower with a white plants with purple flowers and a white flower with a white flower flower
producing plants with only white flowers. He referred to producing plants with only white flowers. He referred to this as this as
“ “True-breeding” (display 1 particular trait). These plants True-breeding” (display 1 particular trait). These plants served as his parental generation or “P” generationserved as his parental generation or “P” generation EX: White X White = All WhiteEX: White X White = All White

3. He then enabled the F3. He then enabled the F11 generation to self-pollinate. This generation to self-pollinate. This produced the Fproduced the F22 generation. 705 were purple and 224 generation. 705 were purple and 224 flowers were white . A ratio of 3:1 flowers were white . A ratio of 3:1

Mendel’s HypothesesMendel’s Hypotheses
1. For each inherited trait, an individual has 2 copies of 1. For each inherited trait, an individual has 2 copies of the gene- one from the father one from the motherthe gene- one from the father one from the mother
Through the process of meiosis, parents Through the process of meiosis, parents can only contribute one allele for an can only contribute one allele for an inherited trait.inherited trait.
When two different alleles occur together, When two different alleles occur together, only 1 may be completely expressed. The only 1 may be completely expressed.

Studying Heredity
Punnett Square: Finding the probability that a trait will be passed from one generation to the next.
-- monohybrid: 1 trait
-- dihybrid: 2 traits Pedigree charts: family history chart that shows
how a trait has been inherited over several generations.
Punnett Squares
Monohybrid crosses A man homozygous dominant for blonde hair marries a women
who in homozygous recessive for black hair. What is the likelihood that their children will have black hair??

Punnett Squares Continued Dihybrid crosses -- Look at 2 traits. Two heterozygous black haired and blue eyed
people marry. Look at probability of having a child with black
hair and blue eyes. B- black, b-blonde, E-blue, e-brown

Pedigree Charts
A family history that shows how a trait has been inherited over many generations.
Scientist can determine the following: Autosomal or sex-linked? If a trait is autosomal, traits will appear in
both sexes equally. If a trait is sex-linked, males will show the trait. A sex-linked trait is a recessive trait whose allele is located on the X chromosome. Because males only have one X chromosome, a male who carries this recessive allele on the x chromosome will show the trait. The only way a female will exhibit the trait if both of her X chromosomes carries the recessive trait.
Dominant or Recessive? If the trait is autosomal dominant, every offspring that has the trait will have a parent with the trait. If it is recessive, the individual will have 1, 2, or neither parent exhibit the trait (depending on their genotype)
Heterozygous or Homozygous? If the trait is dominant, they will have a genotype of homozygous dominant or heterozygous and their phenotype will show the trait. Two people heterozygous for a recessive trait will not show the trait but can pass it on to their children.
