Students investigate how traits are passed from parents to offspring via meiosis and fertilization. They recognize that the combination of alleles forming a gamete is random.

Take mitosis and meiosis out of the biology textbook and onto the screen! An innovative class project prompts young biologists to create an animation movie using clay, showing the phases involved in mitosis or meiosis by...

In this worksheet, students will answer 4 fill in the blank statements about Mendelian inheritance and meiosis. Then students will use Punnett squares to answer three short answer questions. Students will match 8 genetics vocabulary...

Tenth graders work in teams to order events of DNA transcription and translation protein synthesis. In the second lesson, they put the steps of mitosis and meiosis in order using a concept map poster. They use modeling clay to create...

Can you name a type of reproduction that produces no variation in the offspring? The multimedia lesson covers both sexual and asexual reproduction through videos and discussions. It includes topics such as genetic modification, meiosis,...

In this meiosis worksheet, students determine the proper order of the phases of meiosis by matching the illustration to the description. This worksheet has 8 matching questions.

In this meiosis worksheet, students review Mendel's process of the passing on of traits to the next generation. This worksheet has 3 short answer questions

Students examine the difference between mitosis and meiosis, and describe the steps involved in meiosis and the significance of each step. They create a diploid nucleus containing two pairs of chromosomes using clay.

This exam covers every topic in a typical first-year biology course. A wide variety of question styles gives high schoolers every opportunity to show what they know. Why start from scratch when a comprehensive final exam is easily...

Emerging ecologists need a full understanding of life, from the inner workings of a cell to the complex relationships among organisms. This examination is meant to assess high schoolers after an entire year of courses on the living...

The living environment, from the interior of a cell to the complex relationships among populations, is queried in this final examination. Learners examine air pollution maps, cell diagrams, population graphs, and drawings of cells. They...

Students create a movie of animal cell mitosis. They draw steps regarding the stages of cell mitosis. They add beginnings, movie titles, and ending credits. They present the movie to their teacher.

Students review the following vocabulary: Independent assortment, multiple alleles, and polygenic traits. They review their vocabulary by the "quiz, quiz trade" routine. Students work in groups. They are given one set of gene cards...

In this biology worksheet, 9th graders create one chromosome using a red plasticine and another using blue plasticine. Then they illustrate different ways of crossing over, including double crossovers. Students also explain genetic...

Students discuss the stages of meiosis. In this life science lesson, students create an illustration of each stages. They write a short story about a character that went through meiosis.

Seventh graders are engaged in a lesson plan that covers the concept of meiosis with the intention of covered sexual reproduction. They cover the concept of genetic traits and how they are transmitted over generations with or without...

Young scholars practice identifying the stages and purpose for meiosis. They use a worksheet to construct each phase, label its parts and describe the process occurring in each phase. they divide the process into meiosis I and meiosis II.

In this biology worksheet, 7th graders use the phases of meiosis to illustrate and label the flipbook. They should include the facts of each stage.

Learners review the main stages of mitosis. They view an overhead comparing the process of mitosis to meiosis. Students use pre-cut pictures of each stage of meiosis and create cards for use in creating a flip book. Learners name ways...

After viewing these concise summaries of the common chromosome abnormalities that cause disorders, students' understanding of genetic errors will be much better.  This presentation has clear diagrams to accompany the explanations....
