Unit 7: Exploring Patterns of Inheritance Learning Targets Contrast genotype and phenotype. Describe how alleles interact in complete dominance. Describe how probability applies to genetics. Use a Punnett square to represent the outcome of a genetic cross. Describe how nondisjunction can result in chromosomal disorders. Summarize the information provided in a pedigree. Describe how it is possible to predict certain genetic disorders. Describe how alleles interact in intermediate inheritance. Describe how alleles interact in codominance. Describe inheritance patterns involving multiple alleles. Explain how polygenic inheritance can result in a wide range of phenotypes. Describe how environmental conditions can affect phenotype expression. Explain how multiple alleles expand the number of possible genotypes and phenotypes for a particular trait.
