1 Section 1: Chromosomes and Phenotype KEY CONCEPT The chromosomes on which genes are located can affect the expression of traits. VOCABULARY carrier sex-linked gene X chromosome inactivation MAIN IDEA: Two copies of each autosomal gene affect phenotype. Fill in the blank or circle the word or phrase that best completes the sentence. 1. Sex chromosomes determine an organism s. All other chromosomes, which do not directly affect an organism s sex, are called. 2. A person who is a carrier differs from a person who has a genetic disorder. A carrier does / does not show symptoms of a disorder but can / cannot pass the disorder to offspring. 3. Complete the two Punnett squares below to compare autosomal recessive disorders with autosomal dominant disorders. Fill in the possible genotypes for offspring, and write in the phenotype (no disorder, carrier, or disorder) for each.

2 continued MAIN IDEA: Males and females can differ in sex-linked traits. 4. Sex-linked genes are located on the. 5. Fill in the Punnett square below to show the pattern of inheritance for sex chromosomes. Write in the phenotype (male or female) for each. Sex Chromosome Inheritance X X X Y Circle the word or phrase that best completes the statement. 6. In humans, a gamete from a male determines the sex of the offspring, because a male can pass on only X / only Y / either X or Y chromosomes. In contrast, a female passes on only X / only Y / either X or Y chromosomes. 7. The genes on the Y chromosome are responsible for male / female characteristics. 8. Place a check mark in the appropriate boxes to show how sex-linked genes are expressed in the phenotypes of males and females. Show phenotypes from all sex-linked genes. Show phenotypes similarly to autosomal gene expression. Males Females Vocabulary Check Circle the word or phrase that best completes the statement. 9. The verb carry means to transport. This meaning is related to the term carrier in genetics, because a carrier is a person who transports a disease-causing allele to offspring / parents. 10. With X chromosome inactivation, which occurs in males / females, one of the two X chromosomes in every cell is randomly turned off / turned up.

A third phenotype that has both of the homozygous parental phenotypes. b. A third, distinct phenotype that has neither of the homozygous parental phenotypes. c. Blood type (one parent has blood type A, one parent has blood type B, offspring has blood type AB). d. The 4 o clock plant (one parent has red flowers, one parent has white flowers, offspring has pink flowers). Interaction Phenotype Example Incomplete dominance Codominance MAIN IDEA: Many genes may interact to produce one trait. Fill in the blank with the word or phrase that best completes the sentence. 8. Polygenic traits are produced by two or more and show a continuous range of. One example is eye color. 9. Epistasis is the term for one gene affecting the of other genes involved in a particular trait. One example is albinism. MAIN IDEA: The environment interacts with genotype. 10. Genotype is not the only factor that affects phenotype. The can affect gene expression, which will influence phenotype. 11. Complete the following sentences, which give examples of how environment and genotype can interact. In sea turtles, sex determination depends on both genes and the at which sea turtle eggs mature. In humans, height is affected by both genes and factors such as. Holt McDougal Biology 4 Extending Mendelian Genetics Section 2: Complex Patterns of Inheritance

5 continued Vocabulary Check Fill in the blank with the word or phrase that best completes the sentence. 12. The prefix in- means not. In genetics, the term means that neither allele is dominant. 13. The prefix co- means together. In genetics, the term means that both alleles are expressed together. 14. The prefix poly- means many, and the term genic means related to genes. Traits that are produced by two or more genes are called. Holt McDougal Biology 5 Extending Mendelian Genetics Section 2: Complex Patterns of Inheritance

6 Section 3: Gene Linkage and Mapping KEY CONCEPT Genes can be mapped to specific locations on chromosomes. VOCABULARY linkage map MAIN IDEA: Gene linkage was explained through fruit flies. Fill in the blank or circle the word or phrase that best completes the statement. 1. Gene linkage describes genes that are on the same chromosome and tend to be inherited separately / together. 2. Fruit flies were useful in Morgan s research, because many generations of fruit flies could be grown slowly / quickly, and fruit flies had traits that were easy / difficult to observe. 3. A wild type differs from a mutant type. A wild type is the least common / most common phenotype, and a mutant type is a much less / much more common phenotype. 4. Morgan made several conclusions from his research on fruit flies: Linked genes are on the same. Chromosomes, not genes, assort during meiosis. Homologous genes can be exchanged through during meiosis. 5. The sequence diagram on the following page shows how scientific work progressed in the discovery of gene linkage. Place the statements below into appropriate boxes in the diagram on the next page. Some statements may go into more than one box. a. Studied fruit flies. b. Studied pea plants. c. Suggested that genes assort independently of one another. d. Suggested that chromosomes assort independently. e. Suggested that some genes are linked. f. Concluded that linked genes were on the same chromosome. Holt McDougal Biology 6 Extending Mendelian Genetics Section 3: Gene Linkage and Mapping

7 continued Mendel: Punnett, Bateson: Morgan: MAIN IDEA: Linkage maps estimate distances between genes. Circle the word or phrase that best completes the statement. 6. The distance between two genes is related to the chance that they are inherited together. The closer / farther apart genes are, the more likely they will be inherited together. The closer / farther apart they are, the more likely they are to be separated. 7. The basis of Sturtevant s research was the hypothesis that the frequency of cross-overs during meiosis / mitosis is related to the distance between genes. 8. What is a linkage map? a. A map of each gene s phenotype relative to other genes. b. A map of each gene s shape relative to other genes. c. A map of the relative locations of genes on a chromosome. d. A map of the relative sizes of genes on a chromosome. 9. How are cross-over frequencies related to linkage maps? a. The percentage of cross-overs is added to the map linkages. b. The percentage of cross-overs is converted into map units. c. The percentage of cross-overs is generated by map units. d. The percentage of cross-overs is subtracted from the percentage of linkages. 10. What two things do linkage maps show about genes on a chromosome? a. An estimate of physical distance between genes. b. The actual physical distance between genes. c. The relative locations of genes. d. The relative sizes of genes.

Think about the relationship between cross-over frequency and distance in linkage map units. Use Figure 3.3 to help you make the linkage map. Put gene A on the far left of the map, then work through the distances between the gene pairs.

MAIN IDEA: Females can carry sex-linked genetic disorders. Circle the word or phrase that best completes the statement. 3. Both males and females with a recessive disorder-causing allele can be carriers of a(n) sex-linked / autosomal disorder and pass on the disorder to their offspring. 4. Males / Females are not carriers of sex-linked genetic disorders, because they cannot a normal, dominant allele to mask the effect of a recessive, disorder-causing allele.
