CHAPTER 15THE CHROMOSOMAL BASIS OFINHERITANCE Copyright ? 2002 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Section A: Relating Mendelism to Chromosomes1. Mendelian inheritance has its physical basis in the behavior ofchromosomes during sexual life cycles2. Morgan traced a gene to a specific chromosome3. Linked genes tend to be inherited together because they are located on thesame chromosome4. Independent assortment of chromosomes and crossing over produce geneticrecombinants5. Geneticists use recombination data to map a chromosome?s genetic loci

Surface Area to Volume Ratio and Karyotypes Surface Area= Area of each side of an object combined (Ex= Cube has 6 sides so the surface area would be the area of each side added all together) Volume= The amount of space that an object occupies, length x width x height Surface area to volume ratio can be described as the bigger something is or the more volume, the less surface area. On the other hand, the smaller something is or the less volume, then the more surface area.

Ch 14: Mendel and the Gene Idea Overview: Drawing from the Deck of Genes What genetic principles account for the passing of traits from parents to offspring? The ?blending? hypothesis is the idea that genetic material from the two parents blends together (like blue and yellow paint blend to make green) The ?particulate? hypothesis is the idea that parents pass on discrete heritable units (genes) This hypothesis can explain the reappearance of traits after several generations Mendel documented a particulate mechanism through his experiments with garden peas Concept 14.1: Mendel used the scientific approach to identify two laws of inheritance Mendel discovered the basic principles of heredity by breeding garden peas in carefully planned experiments

Name __________________________________ Period ___________ AP Biology Lab 7: Genetics of Drosophila (virtual version) Overview In this lab you will be doing virtual genetic crosses of fruit flies (Drosophila melanogaster). You will learn how to collect data from F1 and F2 generations and analyze the results from a monohybrid, dihybrid, or sex-linked cross. Objectives Use chi-square to analyze data Understand the life cycle of fruit flies Investigate the independent assortment of two genes and determine whether the two genes are autosomal or sex-linked using a multi-generation experiment Introduction

The last ice age produced many different species mainly because of vicariance events; the glaciers physically separated populations from each other. Sympatry: populations that live close enough to interbreed Gene flow prevents speciation in sympatric populations A mating between a tetraploid individual and a diploid individual produces: triploid individuals: which likely produce nonviable gametes with an uneven number of chromosomes All polyploid individuals contain more than two haploid sets of chromosomes

Lecture 16-17 BIO152 The Origin of Species L16 flightless : can?t fly but its a really good swimmer Biological species concept states a species is group whose members have potential to interbreed in nature and produce viable, fertile offspring mule is viable but not fertile reproductive isolation-barriers that prevent two species from breeding reproductive isolation is classified if it happens before or after fertilization sperm of one species may not be able to fertilize the other- gameric isolation they may be viable in one generation but not the others- hybrid breakdown post zygotic barriers have to do with hybrids beluga seal intrasextual- inflates balloon to warn of males if they approach and use his balloon again to attract female (intersextual)

Overview: Locating Genes Along Chromosomes ? Mendel?s ?hereditary factors? were genes, though this wasn?t known at the time. ? The location of a particular gene can be seen by tagging isolated chromosomes with a fluorescent dye that highlights the gene. Concept 12.1 Mendelian inheritance has its physical basis in the behavior of chromosomes ? The chromosome theory of inheritance states: ? Mendelian genes have specific loci (positions) on chromosomes ? Chromosomes undergo segregation and independent assortment. ? The behavior of chromosomes during meiosis was said to account for Mendel?s laws of segregation and independent assortment. Morgan?s Experimental Evidence & Choice of Experimental Organism

Cell Cycle cancer is the cell cycle going out of control most animal species are diploid cell division is a part of the cell cycle DNA is just the one molecule when you see chromosomes in a condensed state, DNA replication has already occurred cell division time varies according to cell type, but takes about 24h on average Meiosis ?How does meiosis affect genetic content?? asexual reproduction is quick and efficient transition to haploid occurs at anaphase II chiasma: crossing over 2n: number of possible chromosomal recombinations Genetics Problems note ratio - see if epistasis is occurring outside members of the genetic line can bring mutated alleles for carrier questions, discard affected genotypes from Punnett square (setting a limit)
