For example, the gene for blood type is codominant if you get a gene for type A blood from one parent and type B blood from the other, neither dominates. When you have two different genes for the same trait, and one is dominant (long lashes) while the other is recessive (short lashes), it's the dominant trait that wins out in the phenotype.īut not all genes follow this dominant/recessive model. Some genes are dominant, and others are recessive. The eyelash example makes an important point. And what length of lashes do you actually have? Long - that's your phenotype. Maybe you've got a short lashes version of a gene from your father, and a long lashes version of a gene from your mother. There are 2 kinds of eyelashes in people - long and short. Biologists have a saying involving these two fancy words: "Genotype determines phenotype." Phenotype is what you actually turn out to be, the way these genes get expressed. In most cases, you've got two copies of a gene - one from your mother and one from your father. Your genotype is your genes for a given trait. YOUR TURN TO SHOW WHAT YOU LEARNED! START YOUR INDEPENDENT PRACTICE NOW.Biologists use two fancy words to describe the relationship between your genes and your physical traits. What genotype MUST this little girl have? aa = straight hair aa = straight hair or Aa = wavy hair What genotype must this girl’s MOTHER have? YES! HOW? If the curly haired girl has a genotype that shows INCOMPLETE DOMINANCE, she still has an allele for straight hair. This is called incomplete dominance.ĬANDY QUESTION: Could it be possible for this little girl to have her own daughter some day with straight hair? What about wavy hair? What gene combination do you think creates wavy hair? -Aa KP #5: Sometimes the dominant gene does not completely overpower the recessive gene. LETS PRACTICE! Genotype or Phenotype? Straight hair line: Jj: Genotype Phenotype Cc: Freckles: Genotype Phenotype Tt: Genotype Dimples: Phenotype (THINK PHYSICAL) Ex: Curly hair = phenotype (THINK GENE) EX: Aa = genotype Another word for trait or the way an organism looks or behaves is PHENOTYPE. Who’s tired of saying GENE COMBINATION? KP# 4: Another word for gene combinations is GENOTYPE. LETS PRACTICE! Will these gene combinations show a Dominant or a Recessive Trait? Ff bb RECESSIVE DOMINANT TT Gg DOMINANT DOMINANT rr LL RECESSIVE DOMINANT  AA or Aa KP #3: A recessive trait will show ONLY if you have TWO recessive genes. WHAT’S THE RULE? KP #2: A dominant trait will show if you have ONE or TWO dominant genes.

Aa = one dominant and one recessive gene What do you think will show? DOMINANT! DOMINANT BEATS RECESSIVE Which guy do you think represents the dominant gene and which guy represents the recessive gene?.

aa = two recessive genes = shows recessive trait.

AA = two dominant genes = shows dominant trait.

LETS PRACTICE! Is it a Dominant or a Recessive Gene? f b RECESSIVE RECESSIVE g T DOMINANT RECESSIVE r L RECESSIVE DOMINANT Dominant means strong This guy represents a recessive gene.

KP#1: There are two types of genes: dominant (CAPITAL LETTER) and recessive (lowercase letter).

How do we inherit either form of one of these traits?

Curliness of hair: Two forms? Curly vs.

straight Handedness: Two forms? Right handed vs.

What are some examples of traits controlled by only ONE gene (from your HW!).These are the traits that you either have one form or the other.So let’s focus on some traits that are only controlled by ONE gene.

That’s why we have a variety of skin tones in the world! Skin tone is an example of a trait that is controlled by multiple genes.

A pair of genes that interact to code for a trait are called _ GENES TRAITS GENE PAIRS OR ALLELES.We tend to see these traits more often in society.Yes: No: Do you have unattached earlobes?.
