This site explains genetic beliefs before and after Mendel, and also includes a section on Mendel himself and his experiments, entitled, "The Monk and his Peas".

This is a group of Mendelian Genetics exercises that are designed to show the evolution of a trait within a population. The site covers instruction in calculating genotypic and allelic frequencies, determining dominance, the...

A great lesson that deals with genetic probability and recycling. Students will create a recycled "critter" based on genotype/phenotypes.

A good site to establish what is meant by gene linkage and sex-linkage.

First, students toss coins to determine what traits a set of mouse parents possess, such as fur color, body size, heat tolerance, and running speed. Next they use coin tossing to determine the traits a mouse pup born to these parents...

Some characteristics, like the shape of your hairline, whether your earlobes are attached or detached, and whether or not you have freckles are inherited from your parents. In this science project you will learn about Mendelian traits,...

Today, about one-tenth of the world's population are southpaws. Why are such a small proportion of people left-handed -- and why does the trait exist in the first place? The following video investigates how the uneven ratio of lefties...

Explains and gives examples of polygenic inheritance.

Students use this article to identify how probability is used to predict outcomes of genetic crosses.

You have probably seen figures showing how human beings are related to chimpanzees, gorillas, and other primates. In this genomics science fair project, you will use bioinformatics tools to generate your own primate family tree.
