 Incomplete Dominance is an intermediate inheritance in which one allele for a specific trait is not completely dominant over the other allele. Each allele is expressed in the heterozygous genotype producing an intermediate phenotype.

For example, in certain snapdragon flowers, the gene R codes for red flowers while its allele R’ codes for white flowers. The RR genotype produces red flowers, R’R’ produces white and heterozygous RR’ produces pink flowers.

Codominance occurs when two alleles are equally dominant, it is characterized by full expression of both alleles and both appear in a phenotype. The roan cow is the result of a heterozygous expression of colored and white hairs from the parents.

2. In four o’clock flowers the gene R codes for red flowers and its allele R’ codes for white flowers. The genotype RR produce red flowers R’R’ results in white and the heterozygous condition RR’ produces pink flowers. What type of dominance is this? Give the genotypic and phenotypic ratios of the offspring of a cross between a white and pink flowering four o’clock.

3. Give the genotypic and phenotypic ratios of the offspring of a cross between two pink flowering four o’clock plants.

4. In cocker spaniels, black coat color (B) is dominant over red (b), and solid color (S) is dominant over

spotted (s). If BbSs were crossed with Bbss, give the phenotype ratio for the offspring of this dihybrid cross. Show your work.

MULTIPLE ALLELES INHERITANCE – Characteristics determined by Multiple Allele Inheritance are determined by more than two alleles of the same gene in the general population, although any one individual only has a single pair of genes (2 alleles) for the characteristic.

For example ABO blood groupings are determined by three alleles of the same gene. The allele IA produce a type A antigen on the surface of the red blood cell, IB produces the type B antigen and the allele i does not code for any antigen. The genotypes IAIA and IAi produce type A blood, IBIB and IBi produce type B, IAIB produces type AB and ii produces type O blood. Remember that in ABO blood groupings the alleles for type A and type B are codominant. IA and IB are co-dominant genes so that the combination IA IB produces the AB blood type.

5. Knowing what you do about the ABO blood types (M ultiple Allele Inheritance ). .

Can each of these parents produce the given child? Show your work for each cross.

Parent Child Yes/No

a) A x AB B ______

b) A x O A ______

c) A x B O ______

d) A x A AB ______

e) B x B O ______

f) AB x AB A ______

X-LINKED INHERITANCE – The genes for X-linked characteristics are located on the X chromosome only,

thus females have two genes for each X-linked characteristic while males have only one.

As a result X-linked recessive characteristics appear more often in males than females.

In cats coat color is determined by one pair of X-linked alleles. The gene XB codes for black coat while its allele Xb produces yellow coat. In females the heterozygous condition XBXb results in a calico coat (female).

6. A calico cat (female) is mated with a yellow cat. Give the genotypic and the phenotypic ratios for the expected offspring. The interaction between XB and Xb to produce calico is an example of ____ inheritance.

6. (2 points) A yellow female cat is mated with a black male. Give the genotypic and phenotypic ratios for the offspring

Answer this following question.

1. Observe an ice cube.  This is water in a solid form, so it has a high structural order.  This means that the molecules cannot move very much and are in a fixed position.  The temperature of the ice is zero degrees celcius.  As a result, the entropy of the system is low.

2. Allow the ice to melt at room temperature.  What is the state of molecules in the liquid water now?  How did the energy transfer take place?  Is the entropy of the system higher or lower?  Why?

3. If you were to heat the melted water to its boiling point, what would happen to the entropy of the system?

4. Describe the structure and complementary base pairing of DNA.

5. Explain how single nucleotide changes can have vastly different effects on protein function.

6. In the past 25 years, we have learned a lot about DNA, and are now able to manipulate genes.  Plants are genetically modified to possess desirable traits such as resistance to disease and to grow with less water and fertilizer.  There are even certain Idaho potatoes that all grow to the same size, so McDonald’s french fries are the same length!  Human genes are inserted into bacteria to inexpensively produce drugs that treat diseases.  Soon, non-life threatening cosmetic changes will be available for those who can afford them.Conduct an internet search to find an interesting example of genetic engineering.  Then, summarize what you discovered.  Next, respond to at least one other student’s findings.

Introduction

Nurse educators continually assess their teaching strategies in search of the answer to the fundamental question: What is the best way to teach? The development of critical thinking skills that foster analysis, evaluation, inference, interpretation, explanation, and self-regulation are the focus of nursing education.

Toggle DrawerHide Full Introduction

Billings and Halstead (2012) suggest that, “nurses are required to use their holistic nursing knowledge base to think through each situation to provide individualized, effective (evidence-based) care rather than simply following routine procedures” (p. 259). Over two decades ago, Carlson-Catalano (1992) suggested that older traditional teaching practices encouraged students to simply follow procedures without question and suggests that today’s teaching practices should empower students to make critical thinking decisions. The move away from the teacher-centered to a learner-centered educational environment continues today (Steiner, Floyd, Hewett, Lewis, & Walker, 2010; Chambers, Thiekotter, & Chambers, 2013).

It is imperative for nursing faculty to establish teaching practices that foster critical thinking in order to advance nursing practice into the future. In this unit, reflect on the fundamental question, “What is the best way to teach?” as you explore the best teaching practices in a traditional learning environment, in a diverse learning environment, and in an online environment.

How many professional sexuality peeps do you know? Having been in the field for over 24 years, I can attest to the fact that we are a small and often misunderstood group of hard working folks. When people ask me “so what do you do for a living?”, I still find it amusing to watch people contemplate my candid response, “I teach sex”. Oh the assumptions that are made! The fear, the enthusiasm … the barrage of questions! This assignment is an opportunity for you to research the folks who have worked and/or who are working in the fields of Sexuality Education or Clinical Services (counselor, therapist, social worker) or Research or Medicine or Rights Activists. And to develop a richer understanding of what ‘the work’ truly is. Submit your paper in the following order / format. I. Author a biography:  use the Professional Sex Peeps List or identify another sex/ual/ity professional (per my approval)  2 pages (minimum), double spaced with no less than 12 pt font  as in all well-written research papers: identify the source in the text when the idea is new to you AND when you use any phrasing, statistics or quotes directly lifted from the source material ….in APA format. II. Complete Mapping the Research Process: The Road to Sexy Scholarship document (posted on canvas) and copy and paste into your paper III. Works Cited page should be in APA format  at least 3 credible sources from various media (1 each with a leftover)–journals, books, websites, interview IV. Author responses to the following in this format (a., b., c., etc): a. Why did you choose this particular professional sexuality peep? b. What, to you, is most interesting about their history? Work? Personal life choices? c. What surprised you? Made you stop and think? d. What do you feel was/is their most significant or relevant contribution? e. Could you trade places with them? Why or why not? f. How do you think their personal values support/conflict with their work? g. Write a question of your choosing with your response. This question would be a result of your research and can be factual or supposition or musing. spelling, grammar and format count so utilize a proofreader!!
