Genetics 1st Test

Mendelian Genetics, Probabilities, Abnormalities, etc

QuestionAnswer
"Blending" Theory? "Aquired Characteristic Inheritance" red+blue=purple Jean LeMark, Giraffes
Why Pea Plants? 7 characteristics on 7 diff. chromosomes, easily available, small space required, many progeny, self fertilizing, easily identifiable phenotypes
True Breeding? No genetic varriation, highly inbred (must be all homozygus dom. or rec. or select for one genotype)
Mendel's Rule of Dominance Some alleles are "dominant" over others, meaning an individual whos genotype is Aa will show the A phenotype
Mendel"s Rule of Segregation If a parent has Aa alleles to donate to their gamete, ther is an equal chance to donate A as their is to donate a
Mendel's Rule of Independant Assortment The donation of the Aa gene has no bearing on the donation of the Bb, or the Cc, etc
Genotype? the allelic constitution of an organisms gene(s), as compared to its apearance
Phenotype? observational characteristic and appearance, physicality
True Breeding Cross P: AA x aa F1: All heterozygus F2: 3 A_(1AA:2Aa): 1aa F3(3A_ self-fertilized): 1/3 True Breeding, 2/3 carriers (recessive phen. will apear)
Test Cross Cross A_ to aa the find genotype of parent 1 All A_ = P:AA, 1A_:1aa = P:Aa
Hybrid? Heterozygus
Monohybrid cross genotypic vs. phenotypic ratios Gen: 1:2:1 Phen: 3:1
Dihybrid cross P: round, yellow AABB x wrinkled green aabb F1: All round, yellow AaBb F2: 9A_B_:3A_bb:3aaB_:1aabb
Fork-Line Method 2+ genes (needs to be drawn)
Probability Method AaBbCc Cross, what ratio aabbcc? 1/4*1/4*1/4= 1/64
"At Least" in question use the 1-x method
Chi-square Test x^2= SUM((observed-expected)^2/expected) if x^2<C.V., we accept the hypothesis
Deg. of Freedom? n-1, where n= possible observable outcomes
Pedigree rules circle = female, square = male dark= affected, crossed = dead
Binomial Formula Usage When you know the number events and the exact number of each outcome, it tells you the probability of those fixed outcomes in any order
Binomial Formula (factorials) (n!/s!t!)*(p^s)*(q^t) n = # of events, s = # of one outcome, t = # of other outcome, p = prob. of one outcome, q = prob of other outcome
Incomplete dominance often in pigmentation, the heterozygote is between the parent phenotypes: AA red x aa white yeilds all Aa
Antigens protiens that stick out of somatic cells and display the cell's unique identity
Recessive Lethality Children only display a 1:2 ratio or one universal phenotype, because aa is deadly to the fetus
Polymorphic when more than two alleles can code for one gene
Blood Typing Ia, Ib, or Io alleles possible A yeilds Anti B, B yeilds anti-A
coat color in rabbits c+ wild type, dominant to everybody c white, recessive to everybody cch and ch codominant, chinchillan and himillayan
Levels of gene functionality wilt type = codes for a fully functional protien null gene = codes for non-functional protien hypomorphic = codes for partially functional protiens
Enviromental factors (drosophila) temperature sensitive mutations
Enviromental factors (Pku) Pku intelectual ability occurs when diet includes phenol alenine for individuals with this mutation
Varriable Penatrance Yes or No Gen. yeilds possibility for trait
Varriable Expressivity How much Gen. yeilds varrying levels of trait
Codominance An organism with two codominant alleles, equally expresses the phenotypes of both alleles (Ia or Ib in blood cells)
Polydactily example of both varriable penatrance and varriable expressivity
Normal Map of Trait Expression Precursor --> Intermediate --> Product Protiens may be needed to promote these transitions
Complimentation Mapping we start wth one organism with a recessive mutation and mate it with an organism of another recessive mutation. If the progeny show no mutation, then the two mutations compliment, which means they are not on the same gene.
"deaf" inheretance problem two parents with a recessive disorder yeild all healthy children? aaBB x AAbb, where A_ and B_ both promote product formation
9:7 Dihybrid exception AaBb crossed --> 9purple:7white A_B_ --> white = 3/4*3/4 = 9/16 aaB_, A_bb, or aabb --> white = 7/16 pre --A--> int --B--> prod
15:1 Dihybrid exception AaBb crossed --> 15purple:1white A_B_, A_bb, or aaB_ --> purple aabb --> white pre --AorB--> product
12:3:1 Dihybrid exception AaBb crossed --> 12white:3pink:1purple A_B_, or A_bb --> white aaB_ --> pink, aabb --> purple dominant alleles halt the normal process white --aa--> pink --bb--> purple

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
