Mendelian inheritance - Study guides, Class notes & Summaries

ANT100 EVO Exam Questions and Answers 100% Pass Problems limiting development of theory of evolution: - Answer- 1. Lack of knowledge on age of earth --> Bishop Usher stated that Earth was created at 2:30pm of October 23rd, 4004 BC - it was accepted because it was too dangerous to disagree w/ the church 2. Religious concept of fixity of species --> Thought God placed all animals on Earth in their current forms 3. Lack of scientific method --> Many ideas/concepts based on singula...

Describe the raw material for plant improvement and where it comes from. Answer - Variation between individuals is the raw ingredient. Environmental and Genetic variations Describe Mendelian genetxics, involving traits, DNA, genes and alleles Answer - Gene - a unit of inheritance Mendel - discovered rules for inheritance of genes Allels - Different forms of the same gene What is homozygous? Answer - Both alleles are the same type What is heterozygous? Answer - Alleles are different ty...

OL Lab 7: Mendelian Inheritance: From genes to traits Learning Objectives:  Explain how traits are passed on from parents to their offspring and the factors that causes variations.  Apply Mendel’s Laws of Inheritance in color deficiency.  Compare and predict the phenotypes of offspring with given genotypes using Punnett squares.  Analyze dominant and recessive alleles, and how these alleles influence an individual’s biological make-up Our characteristics or traits are de...

According to Mendelian Inheritance, it is defined as a person who has two like genes for a trait, 1 from mother and 1 from father: a. Homozygous b. Dominant genes c. Heterozygous d. Recessive genes - Correct Answer-a. Homozygous One of the frameworks of MCN is the health promotion which means: Select one: a. Using conscientious assessment to be certain that symptoms of illness are identified, and interventions are begun to return patient to wellness most rapidly. b. Helping prevent comp...

Gene Determination correct answer: the idea that our genes solely determine who we are example: Huntingdon's disease, and sickle cell anemia both depend on genes did do genes determine everything? correct answer: NO, - alcoholism is not determined by genes complex traits = ? correct answer: Mendelian trais - complex traits do not follow a simple mendelian pattern of inheritance Mendelian traits correct answer: characteristics that are influenced by alleles at only one g...

The determinants of health The complex interactions between biological and social elements, and their influence on health, are called The Ecological Framework Determinants of health - Biological - Social - Cultural - Environmental Represent a departure from past nature-nurture dichotomies Genes and environment are intricately linked (none of these things is more important than the other) The model can be visualized starting with the individual level in the center, interpersonal/social level, t...

How many alleles does one gene have? - Answer- Two Allele - Answer- different versions of the same gene Dominant allele - Answer- "covers" the effects of the recessive version; dominant genes show up in the phenotype (AA) Recessive allele - Answer- "shows" in the phenotype when dominant allele isn't present (aa) Phenotype - Answer- Physical appearance Genotype - Answer- the alleles that are internal Heterozygous - Answer- Ff Homozygous dominant - Answer- FF Homozyg...

List four ways that monogenic diseases differ from other types of diseases. - - controlled by only one gene - potentially fixable - we can deduce probability base on relatives - predictable with genetic testing Distinguish between a homozygous and a heterozygote; dominant and recessive. - Homozygous: two of the same allele Heterozygous: one of each allele Dominant: only one copy needed to express a trait Recessive: two copies needed to express a trait Describe Mendel's pea plant exper...
