Tutorial 5: Mendelian law consistency

Short essay:
Explain the consistency of Mendelian’s law with the chromosome theory of inheritance. Draw the figures of each law.
The chromosome theories of inheritance are based on a few fundamental principles.
1.      Chromosome contains genetics materials that is transmitted from parent to offspring and from cell to cell.
2.      Chromosomes are replicated and pass along, generation after generation, from parent to offspring. They are also passing from cell to cell during the cellular development of an organism. Each times of chromosome retains its individuality during cell division and gamete formation.
3.      The nuclei of most eukaryotic have chromosomes that are that are found in homologous pair.
4.      During the formation of haploid cell, different types of (no homologous) chromosome segregate independently to each other.
5.      Each parent contributes one set of chromosome to its offspring. The maternal and paternal sets of chromosome are functionally equivalent.
The figures (A) next show the law of segregation. From here we can see the movement of chromosome.  A heterozygous individual would only pass one of these two allele to each offspring. In other words, a gamete may contain only single allele not both allele. This is because homologous chromosome segregate from each other, a gamete will contain only one copy of each type of chromosome.
The figures(B) next show considered the segregation of two type of chromosome, each carrying a different gene. At metaphase of meiosis I, the different types of chromosome have randomly aligned along the metaphase plate. This also can occur in one way. The random alignment of chromatid pairs during meiosis I can lead to an independent assortment of genes that are found on non homologous chromosomes. 

Tutorial 6: important of morgan's work

What is the important of the Morgan’s work?
The American zoologist and geneticist Thomas Hunt Morgan (1866-1945) established the theory of the gene which helped clarify the process of evolution and formed the modern basis of heredity.
Morgan formed the Chromosome Theory of Heredity after his fruit fly experiment. He was proven correct in his assumptions that chromosomes contain many genes, and that some chromosomes are related to sex. He also proved that genes on one chromosome were inherited together, and genes on different chromosomes were not. He noticed that there were no exceptions to his general rule. He formulated three laws that go with his theory of heredity:
  • Genes are inside of chromosomes. A certain gene is at the same spot on each chromosome, and that spot is called the locus.
  • Crossing Over, or the subtle exchange of fragments of chromosomes, only takes place between homologous chromosomes.
  • The frequency of a cross-over is directly in proportion to how far apart the chromosomes are in the cell nucleus. The farther apart they are, the more they cross over.
Morgan basically was the man who figured out what genes were, without knowing about DNA. He published many papers and books. Morgan was "the man who made it happen." Mendel had laid the groundwork for someone like Thomas Hunt Morgan to come in and set genetics in motion.

Tutorial 1: Self fertilization and Cross fertilization

With the knowledge that the red skin gene and the yellow eye gene assort independently, ur task is to continue this cross by interbreeding F1 individuals to produce the F2  generation.


1.     The differences between cross-fertilization and self fertilization



Self-fertilization
Cross- fertilization
·        Occur when want to produce F1 generation
·        The sperm fertilizes the eggs that in the same or different flower of a plant.
·        The offspring derived from one pea plant.

·        Involving one plant of the same generation.
  • Lees variation of the offspring
  • Stamen are covered by protective petal, so self fertilization are easily occur.

·        Occur when want to produce F2 generation
·        The sperm of one flower fertilizes the eggs of  another plant. 
·        The offspring derived from two different types of true breeding of pea plants.

·        Involving  2 plant.
·        More variation of the offspring.
·        Large flower of the pea plant make it possible to remove stamens from the flower preventing self fertilization.
