Dominant DisordersOutline of Current Lecture II. Details of Mendel’s ExperimentsIII. Homozygous vs. HeterozygousIV. Probability Current Lecture- Mendel studied characteristics such as: shape, color, size, length, position of flower on plants- Mendel’s Law: o hereditary factors occur in pairso one factor may mask or prevent expression of the other (dominance)o pair of factors are segregated during gamete formation and randomly recombine during fertilization- Punnett Squares:o- Homozygous genes = both recessive or both dominant; either RR or rr- Heterozygous genes = one dominant and one recessive; Rr- Probability:These notes represent a detailed interpretation of the professor’s lecture. GradeBuddy is best used as a supplement to your own notes, not as a substitute.o Rule of multiplication: probability of any two events happening is the product of each of their respective probabilities o If you were asked: What is the probability of getting AaBbCc if crossing AaBbCC x aaBBCc? The answer is 1/8 and is easily worked out by creating one Punnett square for A characteristics, one for B, and one for
