I.OBJECTIVES
A. Content Standard The learners demonstrate understanding of…
How genetic information is organized in genes on chromosomes
The different patterns of inheritance
B. Performance
Standard
C. Learning Explain the different patterns of non-Mendelian inheritance
Competency
D. Learning
Objectives Define and describe incomplete dominance pattern of inheritance; and
Solve problems involving incomplete dominance using Punnett square.
*The words answered in the activity are some of the characteristics you have inherit from your
parents.
1. GENETICS - It is a Branch of biology concerned with the study of genes, genetic variation and
heredity in organism.
2. INHERITANCE - A process by which genetic information is passed on from parents to child.
3. VARIATION - Any difference between cells, individual organisms or groups of organisms of
any species.
4. GENE - It is a unit of heredity; a section of DNA that codes for a specific trait.
5. GENOTYPE – is a genetic makeup of organism. (Combination of two alleles)
6. PHENOTYPE – It is a physical feature or trait of an organism.
7. HOMOZYGOUS – two identical alleles of a particular genes.
8. HETEROZYGOUS – this means having two different alleles of a particular genes.
9. PUNNET SQUARE – is a graphical representation of the possible genotypes of an offspring
arising from a particular cross or breeding event.
D. Explain Did you Know Gregor Johann Mendel?
In your Grade 8 science you have encountered a topic about Mendelian Genetics or Mendelian Pattern of
inheritance by Gregor Johann Mendel. This study of Mendel focus on certain patterns on how traits are
passed from parents to offspring which he elaborated through conducting an experiment of a pea plants.
EXAMPLE:
Only two possible Phenotypes: Either dominant or recessive
Tall plant x Short plant = Tall plant
Mendelian Genetics describes inheritance patterns based on Complete Dominance or
Recessiveness
There are other types of inheritance that Mendel never considered. And that is what we called Non-
mendelian Genetics or Non-Mendelian pattern of inheritance.
Non-mendelian Inheritance – this is a type of inheritance wherein the patterns of phenotypes does not
coincide with those that was presented in the Mendelian Law of Inheritance.
INCOMPLETE DOMINANCE – it is a form of intermediate inheritance in which one allele does not
completely dominate another allele, resulting in a new phenotype.
Incomplete dominance results in a third new phenotype that is a blend of the parents’
phenotypes.
Offspring of a cross between homozygous parents with different phenotypes exhibits a trait
intermediate between them.
In incomplete dominance, The genotypic ratio and the phenotypic ratio are the same.
A cross between heterozygous individuals will give rise to three [3] kind of phenotypes.
Example 1:
A red snapdragon flower is cross with white snapdragon flower.
Example 2:
Show the possible outcome of the cross between White (WW) and Pink Flower (RW) using
Punnett Square
E. Elaborate Procedure:
1. Read and analyze the given problem and give what is being asked.
2. Answer the questions that follow.
3. Write your answers neatly in a sheet of paper.
Problem #1
Among Andalusian fowls, the gene for feather color – black [BB], blue [BW] and white [WW]
exhibits incomplete dominance. If 2 blue-feathered fowls are mated, show the cross with the aid of a
Punnett square.
Problem #2
An orange [YR] snap dragon is a result of a cross between a yellow [YY] snap dragon and a red
[RR] snap dragon where yellow is incompletely dominant over red. Using a Punnett square, show the
cross between a yellow and an orange snap dragons.
Questions:
1. What would be the genotypes and phenotypes of the offspring?
2. What are the phenotypic and genotypic ratios?
F. Evaluating A. Identify which of the following statements describes incomplete dominance by writing
CORRECT before each statement if it is true and INCORRECT if it is false.
__________ 1. Incomplete dominance results in a third new phenotype that is a blend of the parents’
phenotypes.
__________ 2. Offspring of a cross between homozygous parents with different phenotypes exhibits a
trait intermediate between them.
__________ 3. In incomplete dominance, the phenotypic ratio is the same as the genotypic ratio.
__________4. A cross between heterozygous individuals will give rise to three [3] kind of phenotypes.
__________ 5. A white four o’clock flower when crossed with a red four o’clock flower will produce
pink flowers.
