Watch this short Punnett Square video:


Complete the Punnett Square below and then answer the questions using the information in the Punnett Square.

Question 2
2.

Green eyes DOMINANT (Gg) mixes with a Blue eyes RECESSIVE (gg)

Question 3
3.

Does the uppercase letter (G )represent the dominant or recessive trait?

Question 4
4.

Does the lowercase letter (g) represent the dominant or recessive trait?

Question 5
5.

If the combination of letters has an uppercase G, will we see the dominant or recessive trait?

Question 6
6.

Based on your Punnett Square outcome, how many offspring with the dominant trait might show up?

Question 7
7.

Tarik and Julia are about to have a child. Tarik has dark hair (Dd). Julia also has dark hair (Dd). Make a prediction about the hair color possibilities of their child: whether the child will have dark or light hair.

Question 8
8.

How many DD combinations show up?

Question 9
9.

What color hair will the children with DD have?

Question 10
10.

How many Dd combinations are shown?

Question 11
11.

What color hair will the children with Dd combination have?

Question 12
12.

Is there any possible way Tark and Julia (who both have dark hair) can have children with light hair? EXPLAIN:

Question 13
13.

Watch this very cleverl GENETICS video and answer the questions below. Go ahead and watch it more than once if you need to, plus: use pause and play!!
Question 17
17.

Who is the Austrian monk who studied peas and pea plants?

Question 18
18.

When Mendel bred a plant with yellow peas with a plant with green peas, in the next generation all the plants had yellow peas.  This is due to the fact that...

Question 19

The "hidden trait" that caused the plant with green peas is called a:

Question 20

An allele is a:

Question 21
21.

Homozygous pairs result when the alleles are:

Question 22
22.

The heterozygous organism has:

Question 23
23.

The genotype is the set of alleles (ie. YY, Yy, or yy).  The phenotype is...

Question 24
24.

What is the name of the model we have been using to predict the genotype and phenotype probabilities of offspring?
