Curated OER
AP: Chapter 14: Mendel and the Gene Idea
A survey of Mendelian genetics is presented through this handout. Biology prodigies answer questions about the Law of Segregation, phenotypic ratios, and dominance. They define genetics vocabulary terms and describe various genetic...

Genetics Practice 3: Probability Practice
Practice calculating genetic probability, listing gametes, and identifying genotypes. The learning exercise combines short answer questions with practice problems to solve. It would make a revealing review assignment or even a practical...
Curated OER
Genetics PowerPoint
If mom is bald, will her babies be bald? Here is a practical presentation that can answer that question. Viewers can take notes on the difference between dominant and recessive genes, mutations, and heritability. A large portion of the...
Curated OER
Frankenfish
Students learn the difference between a genotype and a phenotype. They demonstrate that recombination of gametes (coins) will result in the formation of unique individuals.
Curated OER
Complete Dominance Traits
In this lesson, 10th graders produces a different phenotype since the dominance is incomplete. Both parents have a spotted nose. After student have determined traits, they create drawings. Students chart thier respones in the graphich...
Curated OER
Genetics Since Mendel
In this biology worksheet, 9th graders describe how two alleles can produce three phenotypes. Then they create a Punnett square showing the possible offspring of red and white cattle. Students also determine the genotypes and phenotype...
Curated OER
Making Babies
Students participate in a genetics activity in which they determine genotypes and phenotypes for given traits. They work with a partner and create babies based on their genotypes. Once traits for babies are determined, they write...
Curated OER
Super Hero Genetics
Students explore the concepts of phenotypes and genotypes. In this genetics instructional activity students work together to pick a superhero and determine the traits of the offspring.
Curated OER
My Family And Me
Students create a family pedigree, relate the laws of inheritance to a family pedigree, and determine certain phenotypes and corresponding genotypes of members in their family.
Curated OER
Making Babies
Sixth graders complete a human traits survey. In this genetics lesson students read articles and fill out a worksheet on genotype and phenotypes.
Curated OER
PHENOTYPIC AND GENOTYPIC CHANGES IN BACTERIA
Students use a rapid method to render the bacterium Escherichia coli "competent" in order to uptake plasmid DNA. They also have growth on the plain LB plates by the untransformed cells (which serve as controls). Students perform a cell...
Curated OER
Human Heredity II
Using deductive skills and reasoning based on the data provided about a family's blood genotype, blood phenotype, chromosomes, and genetic conditions, 9th graders answer the questions below. The conditions discussed are Down Syndrome and...
Curated OER
Marshmallow Babies
Eighth graders interpret the genotypes and phenotypes, then pair up chromosomes.
Curated OER
Just Like Me
Students review genetic concept of traits, define and discuss phenotypes and genotypes, examine differences between single gene traits and multiple gene traits, and compare and record phenotypes with every other student in class.
Curated OER
Mendel and Meiosis
For this meiosis worksheet, students review vocabulary words associated with genetics, fertilization, heredity, phenotype and genotype. This worksheet has 6 matching and 9 fill in the blank questions.
Curated OER
Punnett Practice
In this genetics instructional activity, students complete 8 problems where they fill out Punnett squares and find the percentage of genotypes and phenotypes. This fine instructional activity could be used for in-class independent...
Beyond Benign
Punnett Square Possibilities
Discover possible genetic outcomes through Punnett Squares. Learners continue studying genetic traits in the 10th lesson in the 17-part series. After determining the father of Sparky's kittens, scholars now attempt to predict the traits...
Serendip
Soap Opera Genetics – Genetics to Resolve Family Arguments
Did she cheat on her husband? Did the hospital switch the babies? Should they have children? As much as this sounds like the plot for a soap opera, all of these questions fit into a single lesson on genetics. Scholars read about three...
Curated OER
Inheritance in Maize
Students use mutant corn ears to investigate inheritance patterns. In this inheritance lesson plan, students count the number of corn kernels of each phenotype in mutant and wild type ears of corn. Students calculate the ratio of...
Curated OER
Autosomal Pedigrees Worksheet
Three autosomal pedigrees are printed on this assignment. Biology scholars read them and determine the phenotypes for several individuals and find which ones inherit different genetic disorders. This fundamental skill can be reinforced...
Curated OER
Dragon Genetics ~ Independent Assortment and Genetic Linkage
Imagine a pair of dragons that produce offspring. What percentage of the hatchlings have wings and large antlers? An engaging activity draws genetics learners in, introduces them to alleles, meiosis, phenotypes, genotypes, and teaches...
Curated OER
Producing a Strain of E. coli that Glows in the Dark
Students observe the experimental process called bacterial transformation and demonstrate phenotype changes in bacteria that have been transformed with an antibiotic-resistance gene and a metabolic marker. They create a luminescent...
MENSA Education & Research Foundation
Peas in a Pod: Genetics
Can peas have grandparents? Learn about inherited traits and heredity with a set of activities focused on Mendelian genetics. As your class learns about the process of passing traits along in Punnett squares, they take on the role of...
Biology Junction
Genetic Problems
In a world of DNA testing popularity, understanding how to solve basic genetic problems allows scholars to better understand and interpret test results. They work through many different types of genetic problems using statistics, Punnett...
