diploid organism
inherits 2 sets of chromosomes,
1 from each parent homologous chromosomes like having 2 editions of encyclopedia Encyclopedia Britannica Encyclopedia Americana
What are the advantages of being diploid?
AP Biology
purple & white flower colors are separate traits that do not blend
purple x white light purple purple masked white
dominant allele
functional protein masks other alleles
recessive allele
allele makes a
malfunctioning protein

Metaphase 1
AP Biology
EXCEPTION If genes are on same chromosome & close together will usually be inherited together rarely crossover separately linked
The chromosomal basis of Mendels laws Trace the genetic events through meiosis, gamete formation & fertilization to offspring
AP Biology
monohybrid cross
single trait

Mendel chose peas wisely Pea plants are good for genetic research
available in many varieties with distinct heritable features with different variations
flower color, seed color, seed shape, etc.
Mendel had strict control over which plants mated with which
each pea plant has male & female
AP Biology
structures pea plants can self-fertilize Mendel could also cross-pollinate plants: moving pollen from one plant to another
Mendel chose peas luckily Pea plants are good for genetic research
