KEY CONCEPT
Mendel’s research to what we know about genetics
today
“Father of Genetics”
6.3 Mendel and Heredity
2. Segregation
• When meiosis makes sex cells, each cell has
only one allele
3. Independent Assortment
• Each trait is passed on independent of
other traits (creates variety!)
Ex: pod color green and seed color yellow
6.3 Mendel and Heredity
Punnett Squares
• The Punnett square predicts the probability
of traits in offspring IF you know the
genotype of the parents.
6.3 Mendel and Heredity
Probability
• The chances of an event happening
• May be expressed as a ratio, fraction, decimal,
or percent
Example
• Ratio: 1:2
• Fraction: ___
• Decimal: ___
• Percent: ___
