How Does a Pedigree Help Us to Trace a Trait That is Inherited?
Students analyze genetic patterns. In this pedigree lesson, students determine dominant or recessive inheritance. They construct a human pedigree from genetic information.
Curated OER
Genes
Students explore the history, inheritance and mutations of genetics. In this genetic lesson students complete experiments on DNA sequences.
Curated OER
How Unique Are You?
Students explore how genetic information is passed down from parent to offspring. Because of this, they examine how this causes the variation in each species.
Curated OER
Genes Count
Students view a video that reviews Mendelian genetics. They discuss the Hardy-Weinberg Law and use Popsicle sticks to simulate genetic variations and ratios in offspring.
Curated OER
Fun with Heredity
Students explore basic concepts of heredity and collaborate to see genetics in action through several activities provided in the lesson. Inherited traits are examined and identified as dominant or recessive.
Curated OER
Genes and Inheritance
Students explore genes and inheritance. After listening to a story describing a rare genetic disease, students discuss inheritance and how living things pass on traits to their children. In groups students, students decipher code...
Curated OER
Regulating Gene Expression
In this genes worksheet, students review the system that controls gene expression and the enzymes required for regulating genetic expression. This worksheet has 6 fill in the blank and 7 short answer questions.
Curated OER
Human Body Explorations
Young scholars examine genetics and the DNA of a kiwi. In this DNA instructional activity students complete a lab to extract DNA and interpret their results.
Curated OER
50:50 Chances
Third graders reinforce the probability of gender by uising a coin toss, as they continue to search for the answers to genetics questions by using mathematical expectations of probability.
Curated OER
How Do Organisms Vary?
Students study variation of organisms. They determine this variation arises from genetic and environmental causes.
Curated OER
Cancer as a Multistep Process
Pupils analyze the causes of cancer from a genetic standpoint. They explain the increase in cancer with age and create a hypothesis for cancer development. They use the laws of probability as well.
Curated OER
Case Studies
Students practice decision making strategies by analyzing case studies. They apply decision making skills to three case studies related to genetics.
Curated OER
How To Use Hardy-Weinberg to Find Gene Frequencies in s Wild Population
Students explore the gene frequency in Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium experiments. They inquire into the studies of both black and gray squirrels. Basically the population genetics of certain squirrel populations. The species of each are...
Curated OER
Genes, not Jeans
Fifth graders examine the difference between dominant and recessive genes, and what happens when genes are combined. They complete a worksheet on genetics after observing if they can wiggle their ears or roll their tongues. They...
Curated OER
Canine Companions
Students research and complete activities about dogs. For this dog lesson, students read information about dogs to examine their traits, behavior, language, characteristics, and genetics. Students take a quiz about the information.
Curated OER
Scientists Breed See-Through Frogs
Students participate in a pre-reading activity, then read a news article about the breeding of transparent frogs. For this biology and current events lesson, the teacher introduces the article with a question and a vocabulary activity,...
