    1. The document provides examples and questions to test understanding of key biology concepts like Punnett squares, pedigree charts, and natural selection. It includes examples of using Punnett squares to determine genotype and phenotype percentages for traits like eye color and fur color in offspring. 2. Questions assess understanding of inheritance patterns from pedigree charts, including identifying modes of inheritance and drawing Punnett squares. 3. Other questions focus on natural selection, including how variation arises, selective pressures, adaptations, and how selection can change allele frequencies and populations over time.

    Drawing Punnett squares

    Biology Test Revision Solving pedigree charts


    Describing the change of a population
    undergoing natural selection and it’s causes
    Key words
    • Autosomal • Punnett square • Species
    chromosomes • Dominant • Biodiversity
    • Sex chromosomes • Recessive • Variation
    • Allele • Trait • Selection pressure
    • Allele frequency • Autosomal dominant • Adaptation
    • Genotype • Autosomal recessive • Natural selection
    • Phenotype • X-linked recessive • Artificial selection
    • Homozygous • Pedigree chart • Population
    • Hemizygous • Generations
    • Heterozygous
    Punnett Squares
    1. The allele for blue eyes is "t" while the allele for brown eyes is
    "T". What percentage of offspring produced by two parents with
    blue eyes would also have blue eyes?

    Draw a punnet square and calculate the genotype/phenotype % as


    evidence for your answer.
    Punnett Squares
    2. The allele for longer necks in giraffes is dominant to the allele
    for shorter necks. What are the phenotypes of the cross between
    two homozygous parents, one with a long neck and one with a
    short neck?

    Draw a punnet square and calculate the genotype/phenotype % as


    evidence for your answer.
    Punnett Squares
    3. Brown fur is dominant to white fur in a species of rabbit and is
    represented with the alleles "B" and "b". What are the resulting
    percentages of genotypes of a cross between a homozygous
    dominant parent and a heterozygous parent?

    Draw a punnet square and calculate the genotype/phenotype % as


    evidence for your answer.
    Punnett Squares
    4. Colour blindness is an x-linked recessive genetic disorder. If a
    heterozygous mother had children with a father with normal
    vision, what would be the chances of producing children with
    colour blindness?

    Draw a punnet square and calculate the genotype/phenotype % as


    evidence for your answer.
    Punnett Squares
    5. Why are males more susceptible to getting x-linked disorders
    than females?

    6. What is the difference between an allele, a genotype and a


    trait?

    7. List two autosomal recessive traits, two autosomal dominant


    traits and two x-linked recessive traits.
    Pedigree Charts
    1. Identify the type of inheritance
    2. Write the genotypes of every
    individual
    3. Draw a punnett square to prove
    the genotypes of individuals I-1,
    I-2, II-4 and II-5
    Pedigree Charts
    1. Identify the type of
    inheritance
    2. Write the genotypes of
    every individual
    3. Draw a punnett square to
    prove the genotypes of all
    individuals
    Pedigree Charts
    This pedigree chart shows the
    inheritance pattern of haemophilia.

    1. Explain how this chart shows


    evidence of haemophilia being an
    x-linked recessive disease.
    Natural Selection
    1. How does variation such as a
    bird with a longer beak than
    others of its species come about?

    2. What selection pressure does


    a longer beak give an advantage
    for?
    Natural Selection
    1. Identify the adaptation and
    selection pressure in this comic.

    2. Explain the changes of allele


    frequency and therefore the
    changes to the population of
    seals.
    Natural Selection
    1. Describe how each picture is
    related to natural selection or
    artificial selection.

    2. What might be the


    motivations for these changes to
    occur in wolves and teosinte?
