Pupils participate in a genetics activity in which they determine genotypes and phenotypes for given traits. They work with a partner and create babies based on their genotypes. Once traits for babies are determined, they write...

Sixth graders complete a human traits survey.  In this genetics lesson students read articles and fill out a worksheet on genotype and phenotypes. 

Learners 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.

Young scholars use analogies to show the relationships among cell, nucleus, genes, chromosome, ribosome, replication, mitosis, transcription, translation, DNA, RNA, amino acids and proteins, genotype, phenotype, and genetics vs....

Students learn the difference between a genotype and a phenotype. They demonstrate that recombination of gametes (coins) will result in the formation of unique individuals.

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 biology learning exercise, 9th graders describe how two alleles can produce three phenotypes. Then they create a Punnett square showing the possible offspring of red and white cattle. Students also determine the genotypes and...

In this biology activity, middle schoolers use the information given to complete each of the questions. They indicate whether each genotype is heterozygous or homozygous. Students also complete the Punnett square to illustrate the...

In this biology worksheet, students use the information given about genetics and Sponge Bob to complete each section of the sheet. They identify and explain incomplete dominance and use it to help them complete the questions that follow.

Using deductive skills and reasoning based on the data provided about a family's blood genotype, blood phenotype, chromosomes, and genetic conditions, 9th graders answer the questions below. The conditions discussed are Down Syndrome and...

In this biology worksheet, 9th graders determine whether it is possible for two alleles to produce four genotypes. Then they state how many alleles there are for blood type. Students also determine which blood type is inherited by...

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 genetics worksheet, students use Punnett squares to determine the possible genotypes of offspring based on blood type. This worksheet has 6 problems to solve.

Eighth graders interpret the genotypes and phenotypes, then pair up chromosomes.

High schoolers study the basics of genetics and the father of genetics Gregor Mendel.

In this biology activity, 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...

In this biology worksheet, 9th graders identify which seed color is dominant in the given chart and explain why it is. Then they create a Punnett square showing the alleles of the parent plants and first generation of offspring.

For this cell division worksheet, students 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.

In this inheritance patterns activity, students create a visual of a Zork using chromosome strips to represent alleles from the father and the mother to determine the traits in the offspring. Kids translate the genotype to the phenotype...

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...

Students explore the mode of inheritance of chromosomes. Given a scenario, students use the Human Genome sheet to determine inherited chromosomes. They illustrate the difference between genotype and phenotype. Students develop a model...

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...

Students build chromosome models using popsicle sticks. In this biology instructional activity, students simulate the Law of Independent Assortment. They use Punnett squares to predict the resulting genotype and phenotype.

Discover possible genetic outcomes through Punnett Squares. Learners continue studying genetic traits in the 10th lesson in the 17-part series. After determining the father of Sparky's kittens, scholars now attempt to predict the traits...
