Slide 1 - Slide
What is Inheritance?
Slide 2 - Slide
Inheritance is the process by which genetic information is passed on from parent to child. This is why members of the same family tend to have similar characteristics.

Terms in genetic crosses
P = Parental = the parents
F1 = first new generation of offspring = the children

Homozygous, Heterozygous
An organism has two identical alleles of a gene:
Homozygous : AA or aa / RR orrr etc. (Homo = 'same')
homozygous dominant: AA
homozygous recessive: aa
An organism has two different alleles of a gene:
Heterozygous: Aa / Rr etc. (Hetero = 'different')

Two types of crosses
Homozygous : AA x aa / RR x rr etc. (Homo = 'same')
Heterozygous: Aa x Aa / Rr x Rr etc. (Hetero = 'different')
Slide 35 - Slide
Two types of crosses
Homozygous : AA x aa / RR x rr etc. (Homo = 'same')
Gametes: A and A , a and a / R and R , r and r
Heterozygous: Aa x Aa / Rr x Rr etc. (Hetero = 'different')
Gametes: A and a , A and a / R and r , R and r
