Explain why
• some brown eyed parents may have blue eyed children, while
• other brown eyed parents cannot
a characteristic a characteristic that can be that can be
inheritedinherited
Traits are coded for by Traits are coded for by sections of DNA called sections of DNA called genesgenes
Eye color is a Eye color is a traittrait – –
which make up chromosomes in the nucleus
Different forms of the same trait (gene) are called alleles.
What are two alleles for eye color?

Genetics Genetics The passing on of The passing on of
characteristics from characteristics from parents to offspringparents to offspring
Write observations for each generation.

Law of SegregationLaw of Segregation
States that every individual has two States that every individual has two alleles of each gene (ex. TT, Tt, or tt) alleles of each gene (ex. TT, Tt, or tt) and when gametes are produced, each and when gametes are produced, each gamete receives one of these allelesgamete receives one of these alleles
PhenotypePhenotype
The way an The way an organism looks organism looks and behavesand behaves
Genotype Genotype
The alleles that The alleles that an organism hasan organism has
HomozygousHomozygous
An organism that has the same two An organism that has the same two alleles for a trait, like TT or ttalleles for a trait, like TT or tt
HeterozygousHeterozygous
An organism that has different alleles An organism that has different alleles for a trait, like Ttfor a trait, like Tt
Law of Independent AssortmentLaw of Independent Assortment
States that States that genes for genes for different traits different traits are inherited are inherited independently independently of each otherof each other
