Learning Targets – Unit 12
GENETICS
If we, as a class, can begin each statement with, “We can…” then we will have
achieved our goal of truly understanding our learning targets.
Here are our learning targets for this unit!
Your goal for the end of this unit is to be able to
say, “I
can…”
You will be
introduced to
this topic
during the
following
sections…
compare & contrast genotypes & phenotypes
Introduction to
Genetics
differentiate between the parental, first filial, & Introduction to
second filial generations
Genetics
state Mendel's laws & explain how he arrived at Introduction to
his conclusions:
Genetics
*Law of Dominance
*Law of Segregation
*Law of Independent Assortment
compare & contrast dominant & recessive traits Introduction to
Genetics
describe a Punnett square & demonstrate its
Introduction to
use in determining the possible combinations of Genetics
characteristics of offspring
define the terms from this unit:
Introduction to
Genetics
*pure *hybrid *homozygous *heterozygous *allele *gene
*genetics *heredity
differentiate between homozygous &
Introduction to
heterozygous
Genetics
compare & contrast the genotypic &
Introduction to
phenotypic ratios that are obtained in various
Genetics
crosses
explain what is meant by incomplete
Incomplete &
dominance & co-dominance
Co-dominance
compare & contrast incomplete dominance &
Incomplete &
co-dominance
Co-dominance
How do you feel?
I know this stuff!
I could use some help...
Ahh! What is this?
predict an outcome of a cross between various
individuals using incomplete dominance & codominance
describe an example in which a trait is
governed by multiple alleles
explain how blood type is determined
Incomplete &
Co-dominance
Blood & ABO
Blood Typing
Blood & ABO
Blood Typing
explain what happens to a person when the
Blood & ABO
wrong blood is put into their body
Blood Typing
carry out accurate monohybrid & dihybrid
Introduction to
crosses using a Punnett square
Genetics/
Dihybrid
Crosses
predict the possible genotypes & phenotypes of Labs (ex:
possible offspring using pedigrees
Defective Tooth
Enamel)
carry out crosses & describe inheritance
Sex-Linked
patterns due to sex-linked traits (ex:
Traits
colorblindness, hemophilia)
