This document provides information about Gregor Mendel and his experiments with pea plants that formed the basis of classical genetics and heredity. It discusses Mendel's work with traits controlled by single genes, including his discovery of dominant and recessive alleles and his laws of segregation and independent assortment. It also describes more complex patterns of inheritance beyond simple Mendelian genetics, including incomplete dominance, codominance, multiple alleles, epistasis, pleiotropy, and polygenic and sex-linked traits. The document uses examples like coat color in cats and human genetic disorders to illustrate these concepts.

Biology 103 Laboratory Exercise – Genetic Problems
Introduction
Although the science of genetics has become a highly sophisticated discipline dealing
with the interactions of hereditary factors at the molecular level, it has its roots in the
basic laws of heredity initially discovered and presented by Gregor Mendel more than
one hundred years ago. Mendel's success in discovering these laws was due largely to his
application of the simple rules of mathematical probability - the laws of chance - to his
observations concerning the inheritance of certain characteristics in the garden pea plant.
Reginald Punnett and the Punnett Square
The Punnett square is a diagram used by biologists to determine genotypic probability
within the offspring from a particular genetic cross. The Punnett square shows every
possible genotypic combination of maternal alleles with the paternal alleles for a genetic
cross. Punnett squares only give probabilities for genotypes, not phenotypes. The square
diagram was designed by the British geneticist, Reginald Punnett (1865-1967) and first
presented to the science community in 1905. Punnett’s Mendelism (1905) is considered
the first popular science book to introduce genetics to the public.

The first step in solving a genetic problem is to establish the genetic symbols you will use
in your problem solution. Stay consistent by using these same symbols throughout the
problem solving process.
Represent dominant and recessive alleles (different forms of a gene) using traditional
genetic symbols. Dominant alleles should be represented with the capital version of an
alphabetic letter while using the lower case version to show recessiveness. For example:
B = black color, b = white color.
Each individual gene or trait is diploid (2n) in nature and therefore, must be represented
with two alleles. Continuing with the alleles mentioned previously, an individual may
have the genetic makeup BB, Bb, or bb when using those alleles.
Remember that gametes (sperm and egg) are haploid (n) and can only provide one allele
per trait. For example: B or b
An individual’s genotype contains the possible gametes that can be expected to be
produced by that individual. Much of genetics revolves around the probability of the
makeup of gametes. If the individual is homozygous, all of the gametes produced will
possess the same kind of allele. For example, an individual with the genotype BB would
be expected to produce only B gametes and individuals with genotype bb would produce
only b gametes.
If the individual is heterozygous, that is the individual’s genotype contains one dominant
allele and one recessive allele (Bb), the gametes produced will possess one or the other of
the two forms of the gene – B or b. ...
Genetics is a branch of biology concerned with the study of genes, genetic variation, and heredity in organisms. Though heredity had been observed for millennia, Gregor Mendel, Moravian scientist and Augustinian friar working in the 19th century in Brno, was the first to study genetics scientifically. Mendel studied "trait inheritance", patterns in the way traits are handed down from parents to offspring over time. He observed that organisms (pea plants) inherit traits by way of discrete "units of inheritance". This term, still used today, is a somewhat ambiguous definition of what is referred to as a gene.
Trait inheritance and molecular inheritance mechanisms of genes are still primary principles of genetics in the 21st century, but modern genetics has expanded beyond inheritance to studying the function and behavior of genes. Gene structure and function, variation, and distribution are studied within the context of the cell, the organism (e.g. dominance), and within the context of a population. In science and especially in mathematical studies, a variational principle is one that enables a problem to be solved using calculus of variations, which concerns finding functions that optimize the values of quantities that depend on those functions.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

5. The father of genetics
Gregor Mendel is
considered the Father of
Genetics
Born in 1822
Studied math & physics
at an Austrian university
He was the first person to
study how traits are
passed along from one
generation to the next.
He did his work with the
pea plant
Who’s your
daddy?
7. Mendel’s Garden
Eight years & 20
volumes of data
and analysis on 7
distinctive traits
Published in 1865
8. Why peas?
The garden pea was a good choice for a
variety of reasons. The garden pea:
is easy to raise
produces large numbers of offspring
reproduces quickly
has flowers which are self fertilizing but can be
easily crossed to other varieties
12. Allele for purple flowers
Homologous
pair of
chromosomes
Allele for white flowers
Locus for flower-color gene
13. Mendel's
Theory of Segregation
Diploid organisms inherit two genes
per trait
Each gene segregates from the other
during meiosis so that each gamete
will receive only one gene per trait
14. How can the Chances of an Offspring’s Traits
be Determined?
The chance of an offspring showing a certain trait can
be determined by using the Punnett square.
The table contains spaces for the parent’s gametes
and the possible offspring from that mating.
The alleles are represented by their letters.
Genes come in pairs and must be separated during
gamete formation.
These gametes (letter) of each pair are placed in each
of the outside spaces.
They are then combined to form the possible
offspring.
16. Monohybrid Crosses
Mendel's first
experiments
One trait
Monohybrid crosses
have two parents that
are true-breeding for
contrasting forms of a
trait.
17. All the offspring from the
first cross showed only 1
form of the trait
This trait seemed
“stronger” so he called it
DOMINANT
When he crossed the
offspring from the first
cross, the other form of
the trait reappeared, but
only 1/4 of the time
This trait seemed
“weaker” so he called it
recessive
18. Predicting the Outcome
Why does one form of the trait disappear
in the
first generation (F1),
only to show up in the
second generation (F2)??
19. Artificial selection: populations could evolve (i.e.
change) if members show variation in heritable traits
Variations that improved survival chances in the wild
would be more common in each generation
This idea is known as natural selection
Prevailing Theories
20. Mendel’s Experiments
Natural selection did not fit with prevailing view
of inheritance-blending
Blending would produce uniform populations;
such populations could not evolve
21. Mendel’s Experiments
Many observations did not fit blending
A white horse and a black horse did not
produce only gray horses
22. Test (Back) Crosses
To support his concept of segregation,
Mendel crossed F1 plants (Pp) BACK with
homozygous recessives (pp)
What ratio would
Mendel have gotten?
He didn’t know the letter
combination of the F1
plants. The test (back)
cross allowed him to
figure it out
23. Dominant phenotype,
unknown genotype:
PP or Pp?
If PP,
then all offspring
purple:

Pp Pp
If Pp,
then 1
2 offspring purple
and 1
2 offspring white:

pp pp

Recessive phenotype,
known genotype:

His back
crossed
supported
his idea of 2
“factors” for
each
individual,
and the idea
that those
“factors” are
segregated
25. Predicting the Outcome
What is the predicted PHENOTYPIC
ratio
and the predicted
GENOTYPIC ratio
that Mendel saw?
26. Predicting the Outcome
The F2 results showed 9/16
were tall and purple-
flowered and 1/16 were
dwarf and white-
flowered-as were the
original parents;
however, there were 3/16
each of two new
combinations: dwarf
purple-flowered and tall
white-flowered.
28. Theory of Independent Assortment
Each gene of a pair tends to assort into
gametes independently of other gene pairs
on non-homologous chromosomes
29. Theory in
Modern Form
Genes located
on non-
homologous
chromosomes
segregate
independently
of each other
30. Practice with your neighbor
For the following questions
Work with your neighbor to answer
the question.
Answer the multiple choice question
then,
Use your notes to determine which one
of Mendel’s principles it demonstrates
31. 1. A father carries 2 alleles for the gene
for widow’s peak. He carries one
dominant allele and one recessive
allele. His gametes will
a. All contain the dominant allele
b. All contain the recessive allele
c. ½ will get the dominant allele and ½ will get the
recessive allele
d. Each gamete will get both the dominant and the
recessive allele
32. Which principle does question
number one best demonstrate?
Principle of Segregation
The dominant allele goes to one gamete and
the recessive allele goes to another
gamete
33. 2. A mother that is homozygous dominant
for bushy eyebrows (BB) and
heterozygous for round ears (Rr). The
gametes she can make will
a. All have a B and a R in them
b. ½ will have a B and ½ will have a R or a r in
them
c. ½ will have a B and a R and ½ will have b and
r
d. ½ will have B and R and ½ will have B and r
34. What principle does number 2
demonstrate?
The Principle of Independent Assortment
All gametes will have a B, since mom only has B.
The big B can be with the big R or the big B can
be with the little r.
35. 3. In meiosis, a diploid cell divides
twice to form 4 haploid gametes.
Each gamete contains:
a. A complete set of DNA identical to the parents
b. A ½ set of DNA, with just one copy of each
chromosome
c. Homologous pairs of chromosomes
d. Multiple copies of chromosomes, depending on
which ones moved during meiosis
36. Which one of Mendel’s Principles
does number 3 demonstrate?
Principle of Segregation
All the homologous pairs of chromosomes
separate so that there is just one of each
pair in each gamete.
37. 4. When Mendel crossed a true
breeding green pea plant (GG) with a
true breeding yellow pea plant (gg),
the offspring plants were
a. All green
b. All yellow
c. ½ green and ½ yellow
d. Green and yellow mixed
38. Which one of Mendel’s principles
does number 4 demonstrate?
Principle of Complete Dominance
All offspring were Gg, and the dominant
allele (G) masked the recessive allele (g)
39. 5. Mendel wanted to know if the color for
pea seeds was linked to the shape of the
pea seeds. He crossed a green, wrinkled
seed plant (Ggrr) with a yellow, smooth
seed (ggRr) plant. The offspring produced
were:
a. All green and wrinkled
b. All yellow and wrinkled
c. All green and smooth
d. All yellow and smooth
e. Some of each of the above
40. Which one of Mendel’s Principles
does number 5 demonstrate?
Principle of Independent Assortment
The green trait can go with the smooth or
the wrinkled trait
The yellow trait can go with the smooth or
the wrinkled trait
41. Mendel’s Work
The work that Mendel did
helped explain patterns of
inheritance in eukaryotes.
But Mendel worked with
traits that had a clear
dominant/recessive
pattern.
Also, the traits he worked
with were all controlled by
a single gene.
42. Different Patterns of Inheritance
As we now know,
many traits do not
follow Mendelian
Inheritance patterns.
43. Degr ees of Domi nance
Complete Dominance - BB and Bb =
same phenotype
Incomplete Dominance - Bb has in-
between phenotype
Codominance - Bb has both B and b
phenotype
44. Co-dominance
When both
alleles are
expressed
equally in the
heterozygous
individual.
A and B blood type alleles are
co-dominant, because a person
with AB genotype will have
both A and B blood proteins.
Black and orange color in cats
are co-dominant, because a
heterozygous female will have
both orange and black hair.
45. Incomplete Dominance
Both alleles are blended
together in the
heterozygous individual.
Dominant allele cannot
completely mask the
expression of another
46. Multiple Alleles
More than 2 versions
(alleles) for a single trait
can be completely
dominant or
codominant

49. So far we’ve only looked at how a
single gene pair affects phenotype
More often - multiple genes involved
2 primary cases:
1. 2 or more genes affect a single trait
2. 1 gene affects the phenotype of
another gene
50. Epi st asi s ( s t a nd i ng up o n)
- 2 or mor e genes af f ect a
si ngl e t r ai t
Labs can be black, yellow, or chocolate
51. Black is dominant to chocolate
BB and Bb = black
bb = chocolate
52. AND - another gene P codes for
whether or not any pigment is put into
the hair
PP and Pp = hair has pigment and dog
will be black (BB or Bb) or brown (bb)
pp = no hair pigment and dog will be
yellow, regardless of the “b” alleles
53. So in this case, the P gene “stands upon” the
B gene
P is epistatic to B
We don’t get the classic 9:3:3:1 but some
other version of it
54.
55. Pl ei ot ropy
A single gene can
have multiple effects
on phenotype
e.g. pleiotropic alleles
--> multiple symptoms
of sickle cell anemia
(pain, jaundice,
infections, fatigue, etc)
56. Pol ygeni c Inheri t ance
2 or more genes affect a single
phenotypic trait
Eye color, skin color, height
57. Skin color is controlled by at least 3
separate gene pairs
Genotype AABBCC would be very dark
skin
Genotype aabbcc would be very light skin
Any other combination would be
intermediate
58. And, of course, skin color is also
influenced by your environment -
multifactorial inheritance
59. X-linked traits
genes found on the X
chromosome.
show different inheritance
patterns in men than in
women.
X-linked traits may show
dominant/recessive or
codominant patterns.
60. Sex- l i nked
genes
• An organism’s sex is
an inherited
phenotypic character
determined by the
presence or absence
of certain
chromosomes
• Mammals like
humans have an XX

inheritance
• Other organisms
have other systems
