non mendelian and pattern of inheritance Flashcards
affected by several loci
non mendelians
do not follow simple dominance
non mendelian
Describes the inheritance of traits linked to single genes on chromosome in nucleus
non mendelian
Describes the inheritance of traits linked to single genes on chromosome in nucleus
non mendelian
blending of trait
inc dominance
A condition when during the heterozygous condition the dominant allele does not completely
overpower the recessive allele
codominance / inc dominance
Neither allele is dominant or recessive
codominance
not blending
codominance
1:2:1
inc dominance
Dominant allele only partially mask the presence of
recessive trait
inc dominance
recessive/dominant: A
dominant
recessive/dominant: B
dominant
recessive/dominant: O
recessive
4 phenotype of abo system
a, b, ab, o
give the genotype: A
AA or AO
give the genotype: B
BB or BO
give the genotype: AB
AB
give the genotype: O
OO
amorph gene or the silent gene
O phenotype (does not produce any antigen)
Inheritance pattern for traits that are
controlled by more than one gene
POLYGENIC
INHERITANCE
There is a phenotype gradient
POLYGENIC
INHERITANCE
controlled by multiple genes
POLYGENIC
INHERITANCE
Multiple genes affects the inheritance of 1 trait
POLYGENIC
INHERITANCE
Genes capable of causing death of organism carrying them
lethal genes
The effect on phenotype is profoundly negative and causes the organism to exhibit many
disadvantageous characteristics which can lead to death
lethal genes
Death from genetic disease can occur at any stage of development or life.
lethal genes
very true in homozygous condition
lethal genes
disease destroying nerve cell
huntingtons disease (lethal genes)
associated with death
lethal genes
achondroplasia is an example of ?
lethal genes
having both achondroplasia parent, what is the chances that the offspring will die as embryos?
1:4 or 25%
among the survivors offspring of both achondroplasia parents, what are the chances of them having a normal height offspring
1:3 or 33%
