8. If a baby girl guinea pig looks almost identical to its mother, does this then mean that it inherited more alleles from its mother? Explain. (Hint: Think about the vocabulary words dominant and recessive.)
Mysterious Fred: A Guinea Pig Test Cross There is a teacher from Texas that loves hairless guinea pigs. In guinea pigs, the dominant allele H codes for the trait of having hair and the allele h codes for the trait of being hairless. (Assume Mendelian inheritance). Let’s say that this teacher receives her wish of finding a hairless guinea pig at a pet store and names her Genevieve. She finds another guinea pig at a store with hair that she names Fred. While she can be certain of Genevieve’s genotype, how could she determine what genotype Fred is? She can do a test cross! A test cross involves breeding an organism with a dominant trait (like Fred) with an organism that exhibits a recessive trait (like Genevieve). 9. What is Genevieve’s genotype? _________________ 10. What are Fred’s possible genotypes? ____________________ or _________________ 11. Create a punnett square cross between Genevieve’s genotype and one of Fred’s possible genotypes: __________
h
h
__________
12. Create a punnett square cross between Genevieve’s genotype and the other possible genotype for Fred: __________
__________
h
h
13. Explain in your own words how the offspring from the test cross could help determine Fred’s genotype.
14. What do you think could be some weaknesses with using a test cross to determine Fred’s genotype?
Part 3: Review Genes Video Watch the Genes Review
and answer the following questions:
1. How many cells is your body made up of?
2.What is inside every cell?
3. How many genes do you have in total?
4. If you lined up all the DNA, how long would it be?
5. What is DNA composed of?
6. What does it mean when someone says “You have your father’s hair?”
7. How many chromosomes do humans have? How many do chimpanzees have?
8. What percentage of the DNA in your chromosomes do you share with other species?
9. What percentage of the DNA in your chromosomes do you share with other humans?
Part 4: SNPs Watch the SNPs video and answer the following questions: 1. What is a genome?
2.How many base pairs is the human genome made up of?
3. What is an SNP?
4. How many SNPs are there in the human genome?
Part 5: Where genes come from
Watch the Where do genes come from?

1. Together, what do the chromosomes you inherit from your mother and father form?
2.What chromosomes does a female have? What chromosomes does a male have?
3. What determines the sex/gender of a baby?
4. What is genetic recombination?
