Work of Gregor Mendel Use Mendel's laws of segregation and independent assortment to analyze Experiments patterns of inheritance. Role of fertilization Identify, analyze, and predict inheritance patterns caused by various modes Genes and alleles of inheritance. Principle of dominance Use Punnett squares to solve problems involving monohybrid and dihybrid Recessive crosses. Segregation Use Punnett squares to solve problems involving incomplete dominance, F1 cross codominance, multiple allelic inheritance, and sex-linked traits (may assess Formation of Gametes P and F1 generation) Describe genetic drift and its effect on evolution. Mendel’s Principles Explain how different factors affect genetic equilibrium. Probability and Punnett Squares Explain how mutations in the DNA sequence may or may not result in a Predicting outcomes and averages/ ratios phenotypic change. Genotype Predict the possible consequences to a mutation and describe how these Phenotype variations affect evolution. Punnett Squares Identify the gene or chromosomal mutation involved in human disorders such as Independent Assortment disease, Hemophilia and Tay-Sachs disease. Down’s syndrome, Huntington’s Recognize disorders caused by sex-linked genes and predict outcomes using Other Patterns Punnett squares. Incomplete dominance Identify chromosomal disorders by looking at a karyotype. Codominance Multiple Alleles Polygenic traits Genes and environment Human Traits Karyotypes Sex-linked Autosomal Transmission of traits Codominance Multiple alleles (blood type) Predict effects on evolution Genes and Variation Genetic Drift/ types traits
