Biology I – Chapter 11: Introduction to Genetics

Quizlet: Golenberke M & L Biology Chapter 11 Intro to Genetics Review

 

Big Idea #10:  Hereditary information is inherited and expressed. (The Laws of inheritance in sexual reproduction are determined by genetics. The gene is the common functional unit of heredity.)

1. The DNA that comprises an organism’s genome is organized into chromosomes. (S11.B.2.2.1)
2. Genes and their related proteins comprise chromosomes. (S11.B.2.2.1)
3. One or more pairs of genes code for the expression of inherited traits. (S11.B.2.1.2; S11.B.2.1.4; S11.B.2.2.1)
4. Two or more versions of a gene (alleles) contribute to the expression of inherited traits. (S11.B.2.1.4; S11.B.2.2.1)
5. Meiosis involves a two-step nuclear division reducing the number of chromosomes in half – producing gametes. (S11.B. 1.1.3; S11.B.2.1.4; S11.B.2.2.1 & 2 & 3)
6. During the process of meiosis genetic recombinations may occur contributing to genetic variability within a population. (S11.B. 1.1.3; S11.B.2.1.4; S11.B.2.2.1 & 2 & 3)
7. Patterns of inheritance reflecting how genes interact and express themselves (including dominant, recessive, codominance, incomplete dominance, sex-linked, sex-influenced, multiple alleles) can be predicted, observed, and described.  S11.B.2.1.4; S11.B.2.2.1 & 2 & 3)
8. The Punnet square is a tool that can be used to predict the probability of an offspring’s genotype and phenotype. (S11.B.2.2.1 & 2 & 3)
