Genetics
Mutations
Effects
-
Statistically, effects are almost always harmful
Out of millions of proteins, only a few may be useful.
To add, even fewer are beneficial
Somatic
-
Example
Gene in a leaf primordium cell undergoing mutation, but leaves are not involved in sexual reproduction
Leaves, roots, wood, and bark have these mutations
Causes
-
Insertions
-
If a small piece of foreign DNA is is present after cutting, may be incorporated.
Transposable Elements
-
-
Transpoon
Like insertion sequence, usually much longer
-
-
-
Monohybrid Crosses
Crossing Heterozygotes
-
Punnett Square
-
Does not represent outcome of any one cross, however.
-
Incomplete Dominance
-
-
Homozygous
-
Happens when both parents cross and, in basic terms, are identical
-
-
Dihybrid Crosses
Crossing Over
-
-
If 2 genes are close, may not occur
Same Chromosomes
If 2 genes occur close together, they usually don't undergo independent assortment
-
-
Separate Chromosomes
Independent assortment
If 2 genes are on separate chromosomes, they move independently of alleles of the other gene
If only one trait is considered, it is treated as a monohybrid cross
Punnett Squares can be set up after the gametes are known #
