Students flip a pair of coins to determine what genotype and what phenotype their child have for 29 given traits. They draw a picture of their kid based on their coin flip phenotypes.

Students explore the concepts of phenotypes and genotypes.  In this genetics activity students work together to pick a superhero and determine the traits of the offspring. 

After your biologists have learned about transcription, translation, and gene regulation, they work in a small group to create a poster of a system that serves as an analogy of the gene regulation process. They share their creations with...

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...

In this genetic worksheet, students will complete 4 fill in the blank questions about selective breeding and determining genotypes. Then students will use a Punnett square to determine the genotype for two different breeding situations.

In this biology worksheet, 9th graders create a Punnett square to show the possible offspring of a carrier female and a normal male for color blindness. Then they draw a pedigree for the family and indicate whether the daughter is...

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.

Students study human population traits. In this science lesson plan, students gain an understanding of the terms dominant, recessive, haploid (monoploid), diploid, genotype, phenotype, scientific sampling, and scientific modeling as they...

In this cell division activity, learners answer 15 multiple choice questions about both mitosis and meiosis. Topics include the outcomes of the processes, the phases of the processes and steps within each process.

Twelfth graders perform dihybrid crosses and calculate phenotype and genotype ratios. In this series of science lessons, 12th graders explain the process of anodizing aluminum. They research on the benefits and harm caused by resonance...

Fourth graders investigate the concept of using punnett squares in the determination of the offspring.They collect drawings and pictures and create a collection for student science journals.

Students practice calculating allele and genotype frequencies in the framework of a simple simulation using hard candy, calculators, and a worksheet. This lesson includes a three-page worksheet and an assessment question for conclusion.

Middle schoolers will apply concepts learned in genetics, such as Punnett squares and pedigree charts, in creating their own monster family. Also they will work cooperatively with a partner to create their monster family.

For this genetics worksheet, students use a diagram showing the genetic offspring of plants with different types of seeds to answer 4 short answer questions. Then students determine the traits of offspring of different crosses in 1...

Blood types and transfusions are explained in reading passages at the top of the worksheet. A chart of blood type compatibility is also provided. Biology students answer comprehension questions and then exercise critical-thinking skills...

Students explore heredity. In this science lesson plan, students examine what heredity is, distinguish the difference between the dominant and recessive genes, explain the difference between phenotype and genotype, and predict the...

Ever been told you have your father's eyes? How did it happen? Young biologists get a hands-on experience in meiotic gene expression with a fun pairs-based activity. Participants use pipe cleaner chromosomes with trait beads to make...

How and why do populations change over time? AP biology aces explore this question by completing this assignment. They write the answers to 21 questions regarding population genetics, stability, genetic drift, polymorphism, and...

In this biology worksheet, students identify and locate various vocabulary terms related to genetics. There are 15 biology terms located in the word search.

Pupils assess some common inherited traits which are easily observable and note their phenotype for the trait. Students compare their phenotypes to those of their parents and attempt to describe the pattern and manor of inheritance.

In this biology worksheet, 9th graders identify and locate various vocabulary terms related to the study of genes. There are 18 biology terms located in the word search.

In this biology worksheet, students complete a crossword puzzle with 38 questions on genetics. They identify the different parts and functions of a flower.

Students study genetic traits using popsicle sticks as chromosomes. In this biology lesson, students explain how traits are inherited from parents. They differentiate dominant and recessive genes.

Twenty-one genetics vocabulary terms are listed down the left side of the worksheet and numbered definitions in another column. Pupils match the definitions to the terms. A link to the answer key is provided. Where the content is sound,...
