Monohybrid inheritance
Mendel performed cross pollination with
pure breeding pea plants
short
Mendel concluded :
Inheritance depend on the transfer of
hereditary factors from parents to offspring
Each character is controlled by a pair of
factors
Example :
the gene for stem length has two alleles one
for a tall trait and other for short trait
alleles
Metaphase I homologous
Chromosomes are arranged at
The equator
Anaphase I homologous pair
Separate and moving to opposite
Poles
Dihybrid inheritance
Mendel continue his experiment by
crossing pea plants to study the
inheritance of two pairs of contrasting traits

Treatment
-Replace babys blood with Rh-negative

- Injection of anti-Rhesus antibodies

-If the foetus is Rhesus-positive
-Antibodies from the mother can cause
babys blood to agglutinate

Sex-linked inheritance
Sex-linked genes refers to the genes
carried on the X chromosomes
Y chromosomes does not carry sex
