Curated OER
Lesson 10: Karyotypes
Students predict traits of future offspring. In this biology lesson, students study karyotyping to predict genetic disorders. They research an assigned karyotype and present information about it.
Curated OER
Born of Blood
Students define attributes of human chromosomes and match them to make a human karyotype. In this investigative lesson students demonstrate how traits are encoded in genes found on chromosomes.

Genetic Disorders
Students examine how living cells create new cells and how genetic mutations can cause disorders and be inherited. In this genetic reproductionn instructional activity students create their own PowerPoint presentation.
