• Dominant Allele
• Recessive Allele
Homozygous and Heterozygous
• Homozygous- an individual with a pair of two of the same
allele.
examples:
(BB, bb)
• Heterozygous- an individual with a pair of two of the
different allele.
examples:
(Bb)
• Law of Segregation
-the alleles segregates during Meiosis.
example:
gametes- AA

PUNNET SQUARE
• Punnet Square is a grid for organizing genetic information.
• Punnet square shows the probability not the actual results.
Alleles
Gametes: Dominant green pods (GG)
crossed with a recessive yellow pods (gg).
• Law of Independent Assortment
-segregate independently of the members of the another pair of
factors.
EE- colour of the eyes(dominant)
JJ- colour of the hair (dominant)
ee- colour of eyes (recessive)
jj- colour of the hair (recessive)
Second Filial Generation of homozygous for round, yellow
seeds (RRYY) and the other is homozygous wrinkled, green
seeds (rryy).
PARENTS
Predict the possibility of what will be the offspring of
following … use punnet square to get the phenotypic
and genotypic ratio.
2. Cross two heterozygous tall black cows, tall is dominant over short
and black is dominant over white, get the phenotypic and genotypic
ratios of the offspring.
Kindly answer the following genetic problems.
1. If a woman, homozygous for unattached earlobes, reproduces with a
man who has attached earlobes, what type of earlobe will the child
have?(Monohybrid)
2. In Drosophila, a wild-type fly has long and gray body. There are
mutant flies with short wings and black bodies. Drosophila flies may
have long wings(S), short wings (s), gray with body (B) or black (b).
If two flies heterozygous for both traits are crossed, what are the
probable results? (Dihybrid)
