Zoe Collins Mrs. G AP Biology 30 March 2014 Pedigree Lab Introduction: Gregor Mendel laid the foundation for our knowledge on genetics, and as time went one scientists continued to confirm and extend Mendel?s ideas. Discoveries on subjects such as DNA structure, mitosis and meioses all explain Mendel?s hypotheses. Mendel demonstrated that genes on different chromosomes, or unlinked genes, are inherited separately under the idea of independent assortment. But due to linked genes gametes are often produced with different combinations of alleles that are different then those of the parents.

Copyright ? 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. -1- Name_______________________ Period___________ Chapter 15: The Chromosomal Basis of Inheritance Concept 15.1 Mendelian inheritance has its physical basis in the behavior of chromosomes 1. What is the chromosome theory of inheritance? The chromosome theory of inheritance is a basic principle in biology stating that genes are located at specific positions (loci) on chromosomes and that the behavior of chromosomes during meiosis accounts for inheritance patterns. 2. Explain the law of segregation. Use two different colored pencils to illustrate the segregation of alleles. You may want to consult Figure 15.2 in your text, and model your sketches on this.

Gregor Mendel Studied traits that occur in distinct forms. Developed true-breeding varieties When bred amongst themselves these plants produced offspring identical to the parent for that trait. Used mathematical analysis in his studies. Definitions Gametes: reproductive cells produced by sexually reproducing organisms. Two types: male gametes = sperm In plants: contained in pollen Female gametes = eggs In plants: contained in ovules which mature to seeds when fertilized Ovules contained in carpels Fertilization Fertilization: fusion of egg and sperm Self-fertilized: fusion of sperm and egg from same plant Cross fertilized: fusion of egg and sperm from two different plants Produced hybrids F1: first generation F2: second generation Mendel?s Model

Campbell's Biology, 9e (Reece et al.) Chapter 14 Mendel and the Gene Idea The questions in Chapter 14 are mostly at the Application/Analysis skill level. The material in the chapter invites students to apply Mendel?s laws, and by doing so encourages problem solving. Because of the human-related Concept 14.4, a fair number of Synthesis/Evaluation questions are included as well. Very little of the chapter lends itself to Knowledge/Comprehension questions only. In addition, to help students make maximum use of information presented about one or more specific traits, a greater number of questions than usual is grouped together to explore brief scenarios or figures. Multiple-Choice Questions 1) What do we mean when we use the terms monohybrid cross and dihybrid cross?
