Incompletely Dominant Allele An example is a cross
- Slides: 14
Incompletely Dominant Allele An example is a cross between red flowers and white flowers that produce offspring that are pink. When two different alleles are both dominant over another allele, but not dominant over each other.
Co-dominant Allele An example is a cross between red flowers and white flowers that produces red and white (mixed) flowers A single gene that has more than one dominant allele.
Multiple Allele Trait The human blood type is a good example of a multiple allele trait. More than two alleles that code for a particular trait or characteristic.
Sex-linked Allele Color blindness and the disease hemophilia are sex-linked traits in humans. An allele carried by a sex-linked chromosome.
Monogenic Trait Examples include an inherited disease, such as Huntington’s disease or polycystic kidney disease. A trait that is determined by one gene.
Polygenic Trait Examples include height, eye color, hair color, skin color. A trait that is determined by two or more genes
Antigen An example of an antigen is a common cold virus which causes the body to make antibodies which help prevent the person from getting sick. A harmful substance which enters the body which causes the body to make antibodies as a response to fight off disease.
Antibody Antibodies are used by humans to fight antigens and keep the body healthy A protein molecule that can be found in the blood and is meant to attack bacteria, viruses.
Pedigree Examples of pedigrees include a family tree or a list of relatives for a purebred animal. The definition of a pedigree is a record of known relatives or ancestors
Carriers can produce offspring that express the trait by mating with another carrier of the same gene. An organism that carries a gene for a trait but does not show the trait itself. .
Diagnosis Doctors use tests and other data collected from the patient to diagnose the problem. The process of finding out what is causing symptoms, a disease or injury in a patient
Symptoms Some examples of symptoms include: Headaches, a rash, a fever, a growth or tumor, trouble breathing, being tired, etc. A feeling or abnormal condition which is noticed by a patient, and may indicate the presence of disease.
Prognosis A prognosis helps to decide if the patient will get better or be killed by a disease. The predicted outcome of a disease and the chances of recovery.
Treatment might involve drugs, chemotherapy, radiation, physical therapy or other methods. The manner in which a disease is cared for or dealt with.
