Biology Study Guide Chapter 10
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Gregor Mendel | father of genetics |
| Gregor Mendel was a _____ and then turned into a ____. | tutor, monk |
| Gregor Mendel was from where? | austria |
| genetics | study of heredity |
| traits | inherited characteristics |
| gametes | sex cells (haploid) |
| somatic cells | body cells (diploid) |
| fertilization | uniting of male and female gametes->zygote |
| pollination | pollen to ovule in plants |
| pollen | sperm |
| ovule | egg |
| monohybrid cross | cross where only one trait is observed |
| Mendels main study | pea plants |
| allele | form of genes->one of each homologus chromosome |
| dominant | allele that physically shows up in an organism |
| recessive | hidden allele-> must be present on both homologus chromosomes to show up |
| Mendels law of segregation | the two allele for each trait must separate in the formation of gametes |
| phenotype | what it looks like |
| genotype | allele type (dominant or not or both) |
| homozygous | same allele |
| homozygous dominant | TT |
| homozygous recessive | tt |
| heterozygous | different allele-> Tt |
| punnet square | simple way to look at the crosses |
| monohybrid cross | looking at only one trait |
| type A blood has what ptoteins and plasmas? | proteins: type A, plasmas: antibody B |
| type B blood has what proteins and plasmas? | proteins: type B, plasmas: antibody A |
| type AB blood has what proteins and plasmas? | proteins: AB, plasmas: none |
| type O blood has what proteins and plasmas? | proteins: O, plasmas:antibody AB |
| people with type A blood can accept what kinds of blood? | A, O |
| people with type B blood can accept what kinds of blood? | B, O |
| people with type AB blood can accept what kinds of blood? | A, B, O, AB |
| people with type O blood can accept what kinds of blood? | O |
| which blood type is the universal donater? | O |
| which blood type can recieve the most amount of blood types? | AB |
| incomplete dominence | blending traits |
| homologus chromosomes | same loci(gene site), same traits |
| commmon sex linked traits | hemophilia, color blindness, muscular dystrophy |
| genetic makeup, or combination of alleles | genotype |
| breeding an individual of dominant phenotype with homozygous recessive individual to determine the individuals genotype | test cross |
| inheritance pattern in which a heterozygote expresses both traits | codominance |
| in a heterozygote, the allele that does not affect the trait | recessive |
| in a heterozygote, the allele that does affect the trait | dominant |
| cross between organisms differing in two characters | dihybrid cross |
| cross between organisms differing in only one character | monohybrid cross |
| location of an alllele on a chromosome | gene locus |
