The rules of probability apply to genetics. T 2. If an individual has a Gg genotype‚ half of his gametes should have the G allele‚ and the other half should have the g allele. F 3.

Biology – living organisms Scientific Method – making observations‚ proposing ideas about how something works‚ testing ideas‚ discarding or modifying -allows us to solve problems and answer questions efficiently and effectively. -Ideas about “how things work” = hypothesis. -proposed explanation for one or more observations -scientific hypothesis MUST be testable -must be falsifiable (observations could prove false) Observations Question Hypothesis = imagination‚ intuition‚ chance

Premium Chromosome Y chromosome Meiosis
Disjunction is the failure of chromosomes to separate properly. Non disjunction may occur during anaphase 1 or anaphase ii. If the tetrads do not separate normally during anaphase 1‚ an entire tetrad can end up on one side‚ therefore during the stages of meiosis ii gamates can be produced that either have extra chromosomes or are missing chromosomes. In the case of Down Syndrome the non disjunction has produced a gamete with an extra chromosome 21. 24a) Interphase 1 – there are three double stranded

CHAPTER 14 1. Norm of reaction: the phenotypic range that a genotype is associated with due to environmental influences. 2. Multifactorial: characters that have many factors‚ both genetic and environmental‚ collectively influence phenotype. 3. Pleiotropy: when a gene controls multiple phenotypic effects 4. Epistasis: When a gene at one locus alters the phenotypic expression of a gene at a second locus 5. Carrier: a person who is heterozygous for a recessive disease and therefore
