Study Notes
Gamete Production
- The genotype AaDd represents an individual with two pairs of heterozygous alleles.
- Each parent contributes one allele for each gene.
- During meiosis, homologous chromosomes separate, resulting in gametes with one allele from each pair.
- This process leads to four possible gametes from the genotype AaDd: AD, Ad, aD, and ad.
- The correct way to determine possible gametes is to use the FOIL method (First, Outer, Inner, Last).
- AD and ad are the "First" and "Last" combinations, respectively.
- Ad and aD are the "Outer" and "Inner" combinations, respectively.
- The combination Aa is not a possible gamete from the genotype AaDd because it contains both alleles from the same gene pair.
- All four possible combinations (AD, Ad, aD, and ad) are possible gametes from the genotype AaDd.
- Each gamete produced by an organism with the genotype AaDd will contain one allele from each gene pair, either A or a for the first gene and either D or d for the second gene.
