You must be able to determine:
Mendel Hypothesized
Law of independent Assortment
alleles of one gene may be distributed to gametes independently of alleles for other genes
Genes on the same chromosome
Recombination
Sex determined sex chromosomes
Sex-linked genes found
Y chromosome carries
X chromosome carries
X genes have no counterpart on Y
X chromosome genes
Females of 2 X chromosomes
males only one X Chromosome
Y chromosomes contain
Mendelian Rules of Inheritance does not apply to all traits because
Incomplete Dominance
Co-Dominance
Polygenic Inheritance
Pleiotropy
Pleiotropy example
SRY gene
Environment

Temperature (fur)
Siamese cats genotype
Siamese babies
Investigating human genetic disorders
Human genetic disorders are caused by recessive alleles
Genetic Disorders
Caused by dominate allels

Sex linked
Chromosome number affect humans
Abnormal number of sex chromosomes
Turner Syndrome
