KWBAT use a punnett square to model the inheritance of a gene and predict the gene versions of offspring.
Part 1: Do Now
Question 1
1.
Question 2
2.
Question 3
3.
Could the offspring have a trait that neither parent has? Explain.
CFS:
*Passing of genes, random or selected?
*How are gene combinations determined?
*Gene combinations always the same?
Sentence Starter:
I (think/do not think) the offspring could have a trait that neither parent has because...

Question 7

The table below shows different gene versions for pea plants. Remember: dominant gene versions are shown with a CAPITAL letter.
Question 8
8.
One tall (TT) and one short (tt) pea plant reproduce.
Complete the Punnett Square for these plants.
CFS:
*Mom and Dad Genotypes.
*One allele passed down to each.
*Dominant vs recessive?
(Color coding each parents genotype makes it easier to do!)
Question 9
9.
Question 10
10.
One plant with white flowers (pp) and another with white flowers (pp) reproduce.
Hint: both are recessive!
Complete the Punnett Square for these plants.
CFS:
*Mom and Dad Genotypes.
*One allele passed down to each.
*Dominant vs recessive?
(Color coding each parents genotype makes it easier to do!)
Question 11
11.
Question 12
12.
One plant with wrinkled peas (ss) and another with smooth peas (Ss) reproduce.
CFS:
*Mom and Dad Genotypes.
*One allele passed down to each.
*Dominant vs recessive?
Complete the Punnett Square for these plants.
(Color coding each parents genotype makes it easier to do!)

PART 4: Exit Ticket
In humans, there is a gene that can cause a very rare disease called Tay-Sachs. One version of the gene (T) is healthy, while the other (t) is unhealthy. Doctors have figured out the following pattern:
Question 14
14.
Two parents are healthy and have the gene versions Tt and Tt.
CFS:
*Mom and Dad Genotypes.
*One allele passed down to each.
*Dominant vs recessive?
Complete the Punnett Square for these parents
Question 15
15.
How many of their children will have the disease?
Which offspring(s) will have the disease?
CFS:
*Did I look at the table?
*Did I see what trait results in the disease?

Check Your Understanding: Which of the following is NOT something that a Punnett Square can tell us?
The possible types of offspring created by two parents
Which combinations of genes an offspring can inherit from its parents
The likelihood of different types of gene combinations in offspring
Exactly how many of each type of offspring two parents will produce
What are the possible offspring genotypes for this Punnett Square?
Tt
tt
TT
How many offspring will be tall? (Have the dominant allele)
