4/19 & 4/20

Today, we started with a warm-up in our lab notebook to practice our 6 vocabulary words: genotype/phenotype, dominant/recessive & homozygous/heterozygous. Next we took some notes on how to complete a Punnett square. Punnett squares are used to determine the probability offspring will have a certain trait, given the parents genes. After notes, students completed Punnett Square stations for practice, then went to station 10 where the Punnet Square Quiz awaited them. Students must get a 100% on the quiz.

Absent students: Please copy notes from a friend, then come try the punnett square stations and make up the quiz! For extra punnett square practice there are practice punnett square problems in the packet from last class, as well.
