Mendel’s Genetics Big Ideas 

1.  Mendel's laws of segregation and independent assortment. 

2. Explain how random chromosome segregation explains the probability that a particular allele will be in a gamete. 

3. Explain how new combinations of alleles may be generated in a zygote through the fusion of male and female gametes (fertilization). 

4. Show how to predict possible combinations of alleles in a zygote from the genetic makeup of the parents. (monohybrid) 

5. Show how to predict possible combinations of alleles in a zygote from the genetic makeup of the parents. (dihybrid) 

6.  Genetics Vocabulary
