KEY TERMS AND IDEAS FOR THESE TWO WEEKS  Meiosis o Somatic cells vs. gametes o Homologous chromosomes: autosomes vs. sex chromosomes o Haploid cells vs. diploid cells o Stages of Meiosis o Comparisons of mitosis and meiosis o Sources of genetic variability: crossing over (chiasma, genetic recombination), independent orientation of chromosomes, random fertilization  Alterations of chromosome number and structure o Karyotype o Nondisjunction: trisomy and monosomy o Deletion, duplication, inversion, translocation  Mendel’s Principles o Self-fertilization, cross fertilization, hybrids, P generation, F1 and F2 generation, alleles, dominant, recessive, homozygous, heterozygous o Punnett Squares o Principle of Segregation o Principle if Independent Assortment o Test cross o Rules of Probability: rule of multiplication, rule of addition o Pedigree analysis and single gene autosomal disorders o Fetal analysis, amniocentesis, chorionic villus sampling, ultrasound imaging  Variations on Mendel’s Principles o Incomplete dominance o Multiple alleles: codominance (ABO blood groups) o Pleiotropy o Genetic Testing o Epistasis o Polygenic inheritance  Chromosomal Basis of Inheritance o Chromosomal theory of inheritance o Linked genes o Recombination frequency and gene mapping  Sex Chromosomes and Sex-linked Genes o Sex determination mechanisms in organisms (X-Y, X-O, Z-W, chromosome number, monoecious, dioecious, hermaphroditic) o Sex-linked inheritance and disorders

Skills:  Calculations of genotypic and phenotypic frequencies using Punnett Squares and rules of probability  Chi-Square analysis  Gene mapping using frequencies of crossing over
