In class we learned about codominance, pedigrees, and sex-linked traits. Homework: Complete the study guide in your notebook. Do not do #5-8 as they haven't been covered yet!
In class: Mutations! We crossed our parents and created an offspring! We wrote a conclusion paragraph and turned in the entire Super Hero Project!
Homework: Read Chapter 5, 1 (154-159) and in your notebook answer the questions IN COMPLETE SENTENCES on pg 159 #1-2 a-c for both! In class we: Practiced SpongeBob Punnett Squares, traded males, predicted offspring by making super hero Punnett Squares. We worked on explaining Punnett Squares - see below for what is expected!!!
Part 1 Predicting Probability: A- Write 2 sentences explaining ALL TRAITS YOU HAVE A 100% chance of your offspring inheriting OR 100% of NOT inheriting. B- Explain 3 DIFFERENT Punnett Squares of super hero traits (e.g. flying)- 15 points (5 each)
HERE IS A TEMPLATE THAT MIGHT HELP- it does NOT have every part, but is a start! The trait for ________________ in the Super Hero ___________________ population is (common/ uncommon) (dominant / recessive). The alleles are ___________________ which is dominant and _______________which is recessive. The genotypes of both parents are________________. (homozygous (dominant / recessive) / heterozygous). The possible genotypes of the offspring are ___________________ (homozygous (dominant / recessive) / heterozygous). The probability of offspring with _____________ are _____________________________(percent/ ratio of phenotypes). In class: Punnett Square notes & practice.
Homework: Mendel pea worksheet IN Class- Bill Nye Genes, Probability, & Genetics Web Activity
Absent? See the Genetics & Probability Tab for worksheets & web links! Homework: Anything you did not finish! In class we learned about Gergor Mendel & his pea experiments. In groups we made super heroes.
Homework: According to the PHENOTYPE of your super hero draw and color the male and female super heroes.You can make a body part invisible or draw a dotted circle of invisibility around them, but you still need to draw them! Finish the Class Survey Lab & look at the BrainPop Heredity to add 4 facts to your notes!
Heredity This BrainPOP movie explains how organisms pass traits from one generation to the next. In class:

In class: virtual and real DNA extractions
Notes on STEM CELLs & Differentiation Homework: Read Chapter 4, 3 and complete workbook pages 77-81- this is your study guide for the quiz! QUIZ ON THURSDAY/ FRIDAY or this week! |
