Mendel is the father of modern genetics but there are some genetic characteristics that cannot be explained by simple Mendelian genetics. Such is the case with the human blood types in which there are 3 alleles for the same gene A B and o. A parent can pass allele A B or o to the offspring based on the parent?s genotype.From these 3 alleles there are 4 blood types (phenotypes): A B AB and O and there are six genotypes: AA Ao BB Bo AB or oo. This is an example of codominance in which both A and B alleles are codominant to each other. Blood types can be used in forensics to determine if blood is from the victim or criminal. Blood types can be used to determine parental source in situation where the father is unknown; however blood types can only eliminate certain blood types. DNA fingerprinting is a better method that is used often in criminal and parental determination cases.Punnett squares such as the one shown above are used to determine the probabilities (percentages) for genotypes of offspring given specific genotypes for the parents. In the example above the Punnett Square represents a cross (mating) between a male (on the left side) with blood type AB and a female (top of square) with blood type A genotype Ao.Fill out and turn in the Punnett square for AB x Ao above. And answer the following questions for the cross represented above. Make sure you understand the difference between phenotype (blood type) and genotype. The Punnett Square shows the possible genotypes. When answering the questions percent (probability) calculations and your answers should be in terms of the phenotypes (the blood types) and NOT the genotypes. What are the possible blood types for the offspring? What are the ratios or percentages for each possible blood type from this cross? What blood type is not possible from this cross? Fill out two Punnett squares for a cross between a male with blood type B and a female with blood type AB. (Note that we do not know if the father is genotype BB or Bo from the information given. Thus there are two solutions to the possible cross.) Set up two Punnett squares and answer the following questions about them. Turn in these two Punnett Squares and your answers to the questions. Again make sure you understand the difference between phenotype (blood type) and genotype. The Punnett Squares that you set up show the possible genotypes. When answering the questions percent (probability) calculations and your answers should be in terms of the phenotypes (the blood types) and NOT the genotypes.What are the possible blood types for the cross between the type B (BB or Bo?) male and AB female? What are the percentages (%) or probabilities for each blood type in the offspring? What blood type(s) would not be possible in a cross between these two parents?Part 2: Cell division mutations and genetic variability.Eukaryotic cells can divide by mitosis or meiosis. In humans mitosis produces new cells for growth and repair. And meiosis produces sex cells (gametes) called sperm and eggs. Changes or mutations in genes in sex cells can be inherited by human offspring. Genetic variation in a population of organisms is good; however sometimes mutations can be harmful or cause genetic disorders.Briefly answer the following two questions. List and cite your references for this:How do meiosis and sexual reproduction (fertilization) produce offspring that differ genetically from the parents? Be sure to talk about both meiosis and fertilization. Describe one example of a human disorder that is inherited and also describe the specific inheritance pattern. For this question pick disorders that result from mutations in DNA or chromosome number rather than examples such as a genetic tendency for a disorder such as cancer.
