Pedigree Project
1.Pick a genetic disease from the ones listed at the link above. Pick a letter to represent alleles.
2.Create an imaginary pedigree, at least 4 generations; each couple has 2 children always and only.
3. The original couple are both heterozygous.
4. Use a coin to decide the genotype for each of the spouses throughout your pedigree. H-heads, T-tails HH-homozygous dominant, TT- homozygous recessive, HT- heterozygous.
5. Create a punnett's square beside each couple to show the possible genotypes of their offspring.
6. Use a coin to decide the genotype of their children.
7. Label the genotype of each individual, list both if two are possible.
8. Fill in the shapes of affected individuals, and half fill all carrier individuals.
9. Use roman numerals to number each generation and then number each individual in the generation.
10. List the following information somewhere on your pedigree.
Who are the heterozygous individuals?
Who are the homozygous dominant individuals?
How many people in your pedigree have your disease? Who are they?
Using the rules above, could it have been possible to create a pedigree with no homozygous recessive individuals?
11. Write a fictional description for your pedigree. You may be as creative as you want, but you must assign names, give a brief backstory for each couple including how they met, and include a description of how the disease has affected the family. Do affected individuals die early, live normal lives, require special treatments, etc.
