Match the following terms from the Human Genetics Introductory lecture I prepared for you. Question 1 options: Alleles inherited from both parents for a trait are recessive. We would write this as ee. An alternate form of a gene that is at the same place on a pair of chromosomes that will affect the same trait. Example would be for hair color. Do you have a dark hair allele or a light hair allele? Example includes Huntington’s Disease. Children that have one parent with the gene have a 50% chance of developing the disease. Alleles inherited from both parents for a trait are different; one is dominant and one is recessive. We would write this as Ee. Alleles inherited from both parents for a trait are dominant. We would write this as EE. Examples include Cystic Fibrosis and Albinism. Children that have carriers for parents have a 1 in 4 chance of developing the disease. Key process in gamete production that “mixes” the DNA from parents to produce genetic diversity. An individuals physical makeup–what they look like or the characteristics they have A heterozygous individual that has one copy of a normal gene and one copy of a disease gene.
