In this biology worksheet, students answer 30 multiple choice trivia questions on various genetics and types of chromosome abnormalities.

Crack open the mysteries inside a genome. Participants view an animated video describing the relationship between DNA, genes, proteins, chromosomes, and an organism's genome. A post-video worksheet allows pupils to apply knowledge by...

It's alive! Turn young biologists into mad scientists with this engaging genetics activity. Using their knowledge of chromosomes and genes, students create dragons with unique sets of traits,...

Sixth graders identify, locate and describe the function of the parts of a cell. In groups, they state the five stages of mitosis and put them in the correct order. They are introduced to the structure of DNA and mRNA and how they...

Tenth graders investigate the chemical composition of DNA and RNA and how they work together to synthesize protein. They discover genetic codes, gene chromosome theory, and how the environment influences our appearance.

In this genetic change worksheet, students will explore the changes that can occur in DNA including point mutations and chromosomal mutations. This worksheet has 11 multiple choice questions.

Eighth graders use a large Punnett Square and infer how genes determine blood types.  In this blood type lesson students predict blood types and demonstrate how Punnett Squares are related to genes and chromosomes. 

Teenaged scientists can use this quiz or study guide to show off their understanding of genetic mutations and their causes; includes short answer, multiple choice, matching, and more.

Young scholars develop understanding of DNA by modeling the process of DNA extraction. They study DNA, genes and chromosomes. After the basic information, students do an experiment in which they separate out DNA from peas.

Ninth graders discover where their physical appearance and personality traits come from. In this genetics activity, 9th graders learn about cells, chromosomes, DNA and genes. Students discover where genes come from as well as dominant...
