4.1 | | Following the Inheritance of One Gene 1. | | Describe how Mendel deduced that
recessive traits seem to disappear in hybrids. | 2. | | Define and distinguish heterozygote and
homozygote; dominant and recessive;
phenotype and genotype. | 3. | | Explain how the law of segregation reflects
the events of meiosis. | 4. | | Describe a Punnett square. |
|
4.2 | | Single-Gene Inheritance Is Rare 5. | | Explain how a gene alone usually does not
solely determine a trait. | 6. | | Distinguish between autosomal recessive
and autosomal dominant inheritance. |
|
4.3 | | Following the Inheritance of More Than
One Gene 7. | | Explain how Mendel's experiments followed
the inheritance of more than one gene. | 8. | | Explain how the law of independent
assortment reflects the events of meiosis. |
|
4.4 | | Pedigree Analysis 9. | | Explain how pedigrees show single-gene
transmission. |
|
4.5 | | Family Genome Analysis 10. | | Explain how genome sequencing in a family
can reveal Mendelian inheritance patterns. |
