Document Summary

Rh+ (positive) is caused by a dominant allele: rh+rh+ or rh+rh- Rh- (negative) is caused by 2 recessive alleles. Blood typing can be used to exclude potential parents: ex: an ab parent can never have an o child and two rh- parents can never have a. Autosomes any chromosome that is not a sex chromosome, **22 pairs. Sex chromosomes x and y chromosomes: dad determines the sex, haploid cells, join together and make diploid cells for the kid. Genes located on x or y chromosomes. Trait is more likely found in one sex more than the other, the male because they only receive 1 x chromone, if that chromosome is recessive, they have the trait. Sex linked traits color-blindness: a sex-linked trait is carried on the x chromosome. Women carry two copies of the x chromosome, while men carry and x and y chromosome.

The A antigen (the protein that makes A blood A blood) is embedded in the red blood cell (RBC) membrane. Blood group A individuals will automatically carry antibodies (proteins that are in the blood plasma-liquid part of blood) that will attack blood group B cells. Blood group B individuals will carry antibodies that will attack blood group A cells. Blood group O individuals, lacking either of the A or B antigens will carry BOTH types of antibodies and will attack either A or B cells. When there is a transfusion with incompatible blood groups, cells can clump creating blockages in arteries throughout the body. Other pathways can lead to the lysing of RBCâs which will release their contents into the bloodstream elevating these component in the blood which can have sever effects on the heart (potassium primarily-in case you are interested).

Remember, the Rh is a typical one gene, two allele scenario. Rh+ blood can accept Rh+ or Rh- blood. A person with Rh- blood can only receive Rh- blood. Unlike ABO where an individual manufactures the antibody to an antigen they lack without prior exposure, the Rh factor requires previous exposure to illicit an immune response. If a Rh- person is exposed to Rh+ blood, the individual will create the antibody against the Rh antigen. Now, if Rh+ blood is introduced into this individual again, the recipientâs blood contains anti-Rh antibodies and will attack the Rh+ cells-Bad news for the recipient. This is the same thing that happens with an Rh- mom who gets pregnant with an Rh+ baby. By the time the first Rh+ baby is born and blood mixing may have occurred during late pregnancy (small breaks in the placenta can cause some of babyâs blood to mix with that of mom), first baby escapes unharmed. Subsequent babies arenât so lucky.

If there are small tears in the placenta (which are normal), momâs anti Rh antibodies can go in and attack the Rh+ babyâs blood. This can kill the baby. Now, Rh- moms are given a substance that will coat the babyâs RBCâ; kind of like putting them into stealth mode so they canât be seen by momâs immune system. Later-poof, out pops unaffected baby.

1. What blood type(s) can be given to an A positive individual?

2. If you have B negative blood, what blood types can you receive?

3. What blood types can an O negative receive? O positive?

4. If a man is blood group B and his wife is blood group A what blood type(s) are you 100% sure they could produce in their children?

5. If you have a blood group O father and a blood group B mother, can they produce an O child? Explain your answer.

6. You have a male friend who is blood group AB. He is successful in business but knows very little about biology. His wife just had an O child. Knowing that you have been studying the genetics of blood groups, he asks you for an education on blood groups. What do you think about this situation?

7. A woman is AB and her husband is A. They have a B child. What are all the blood groups possible in their children if he is heterozygous?

8. A woman is Rh- and her husband is Rh+. Their first baby is Rh-. What is the genotype, with respect to Rh, of the parents? What is the probability their next child will be Rh+? Does the woman have to worry about any issues with future children? Explain!

1. What is the chromosome theory of inheritance?

2. Understand how independent assortment can cause gametes to have four combinations of alleles when an individual is heterozygous for two genes on two different chromosomes.

3. What are linked characters and linked genes? Understand why linked genes will not independently assort.

4. How can crossing over affect linked genes?

5. What are recombinant gametes?

6. Define recombinant frequency. Be able to use the recombinant frequency to determine how close two genes are on a chromosome.

7. What is a linkage map?

8. What is the function of the SRY gene on the Y chromosome? What happens if you don't have this gene?

9. Know how sex is determined in mammals, birds, bees and ants, and reptiles.

10. How many autosomes and sex chromosomes do normal human haploid and diploid cells have?

11. What does it mean for a gene to be X-linked or Y-linked?

12. Be able to answer word problems and fill out a Punnet square involving an X-linked recessive trait.

13. Which sex is more likely to have an X-linked recessive disorder? Understand why.

P.s The most simple answer would be preferable. I would be copping the notes over that you will provide to my noteb book and add my details to it.

Sex-Linked Traits (traits located on the sex chromosomesâusually the X chromosome)

Follow the directions for the lab. Enter data you obtain for the following crosses and answer questions on this answer sheet. (NOTE: The traits used in this Module 3 Lab are sex-linked. Therefore, you CANNOT click the âignore sexâ button for these crosses. You need to see separate results for males and females to analyze data for sex-linked traits.)

Question: In this lab exercise, should you click the "ignore sex" button for the crosses?

1. a. Perform a monohybrid cross between a female fly with a tan body and a wild-type male fly. Show results for the F₁ offspring. (NOTE: You will use these F₁ flies in the next cross.)
ENTER DATA HERE:

Question: Are the phenotypes of the F₁ offspring what you would have predicted for this cross: why or why not?

Question: Each F₁ female received a tan allele from her mother and a wild allele from her father. Why do all of the F₁ females show the wild-type phenotype?

Question: Compare the number and type (X or Y) of sex chromosomes found in female and male flies.

Question: Compare the number of alleles present on the X and Y chromosomes.

Question: How can you tell that tan body is a sex-linked trait?

Question: How can you tell whether tan body is located on the X chromosome or the Y chromosome?

Question: If tan body was located on the Y-chromosome, what would be the phenotype of all the male F₁ offspring? Is this what you obtained for the cross above?

Question: If tan body was located on the Y-chromosome, could females even show the trait? (HINT: When analyzing the cross results, remember that Y-linked traits are passed down only from affected males to their sons. Females cannot display Y-linked traits since they do not have Y chromosomes. On the other hand, both males and females can inherit X-linked traits since they both have X chromosomes.)

PUNNETT SQUARE:

List the genotypes of the parent flies in this cross (HINT: You must use X and Y symbols):

List the gametes produced by each parent fly in this cross:

Show the Punnett Square for the above cross.
