• Genes are the factors that control Traits.
• Alleles are the different forms of Genes.
• Individual Alleles control the inheritance of Traits.
• An offspring receives one allele from each parent.

DOMINANT and recessive Alleles
• A dominant allele is one whose trait always shows up in an organism when the allele is present.
- capital letter (AA, Aa)• A recessive allele is covered up
when the dominant allele is present.
- lower case letter (aa)

Codominance
• Some alleles are neither dominant or recessive.
• Codominance is when alleles are neither dominant or recessive, both alleles are expressed in the offspring.

Phenotype
• Phenotype is an organisms physical appearance or its visible traits.
• Example: a pea plant stem height can be short or tall.

Genotype
• Genotype is an organisms genetic makeup, or allele combination.
• Example: TT, Tt, tt

Describing genotypes
• Homozygous (or Purebred) is used to describe an organism that has two identical alleles for a trait.
• Example: TT and tt
• Heterozygous (or Hybrid) is used to describe an organism with two different alleles.
-Example: Tt

Punnett Squares
• A punnett square is a chart that shows all possible combinations of alleles that can result from a genetic cross.

• What is the probability that the offspring will be yellow?
100%

Punnett Problems
• In purple people eaters, one-horn is dominant and no horns is recessive.
• Draw a Punnet Square showing the cross of a purple people eater that is hybrid for horns, with a purple people eater that does not have horns.
04/12/23 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 22
Answer
• Hybrids have two different alleles for one trait.
• Hh is the hybrid in the example.
• No horns would have to be hh because it is a recessive allele.
