Inheretance Bio 121

A method for determining outcome of inheritence on offspring

• Genes that are dominant over Recessive genes
• Represented by an Uppercase letter

• Genes that are under Dominant ones.
• Represented by a Lowercase Letter

• Contains the same pairs of genes or alleles
• Ex. RR rr

• Contains mixes of pairs of genes or alleles
• Ex. Rr

• The combination of alleles carried by the individual/organism
• The "Genetic Code" that is not seen

The appearance of the individual or organism created from the Genotype

Cross a Dominant Phenotype to a homozygous recessive to see if the Dominant is Heterozygous or Homozygous

• Male has XY
• Female has X

The phenotype of heterozygotes is intermediate between the phenotypes of the homozygotes

Recessive

• abnormal numbers of autosomes
• -Probability increases with age of parents

A,B,AB, O

Located on red blood cells... determines which blood type can be accepted

• Fight off infections
• Bond with other types of blood than organisms blood type
• Ex. is If Tyler has A blood type and receives B blood transfusion, the Antibodies will form bonds with them and create blockage leading to stroke or heartattack
