Students examine inheritance of blood types.  In the chromosome lesson, students create a model of chromosome and predict the blood type of offspring.

Students describe a spool of light colored thread that the teacher holds in his/her hands. They are asked what substances (cotton and wood) are present and what structures (thread and spool) are present. The teacher conclude that the...

Students view a video on DNA. They discuss mitosis, meiosis and fertilization. They use strips of paper to simulate fertilization and analyze the genotype and phenotype of the combined chromosomes.

Young scholars explore genetics. They discuss how chromosomes and/or genes are regulated during the life of an organism. In a lab setting, students compare and contrast the genomic regulation of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells using...

Students examine the roles of genes and evolution on behaviors. In groups, they identify the relationships among DNA, genes and chromosomes. They evaluate the different theories of language acquistion and how evolved tendencies interact...

In this chromosome worksheet students complete a crossword puzzle by answering questions on DNA, nucleic acids, nucleotides and RNA.  

In this genetic technology activity, students will answer 6 true or false statements and 4 short answer questions based on the mapping and sequencing of the human genome and the applications of the Human Genome Project.

Pupils examine the concept of homology by observing their shoes and those of their classmates. They summarize the observations of everyone's shoes relating it to chromosomes in cells. They share their observations with the class.

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. 

In this reproduction worksheet, students will review the genetic processes in sexual reproduction and asexual reproduction by answering 6 true or false statements. Then students will complete 2 short answer questions about the offspring...

In this meiosis worksheet, student complete the blanks describing the process of meiosis. Students draw a diagram of homologous chromosomes.

Students engage in a lesson that is concerned with the "X" chromosome and how ti is part of genetics with the use of Punnett squares. They use this tool in order to predict future genetic outcomes while focusing upon specific questions.
