- the explanation of simple monohybrid crosses showing complete, incomplete, and co-dominance is easy for pupils to follow
- Completes a sex-linked cross in a simple monohybrid cross; great for your class to see and understand sex-linkage
- Young scientists walk through two dihybrid crosses to see genotype and phenotype results; these activities seem complex but the crosses shown are very effective
Cons
- None
