Pedigree Charts
A pedigree for any family, be it dogs, cats or humans, shows the pattern of inheritance in a family for a specific
trait. Males are shown as squares and females are shown as circles. Each generation is shown as a Roman
numeral and each person in a generation is numbered. The trait that is being expressed is shown as a shaded
shape.
Observe the pedigree. Number the
generations and each person on the
pedigree.
In this family, how many individuals
show the trait?
Which males show the trait?
(generation,number)
