Week 32

Objective/ Procedure Handouts/ Labs Homework
4/26

Genetics-1 TSWBAT

1. Understand that a genotype is  an organisms particular combination of paired alleles while the phenotype represents the expressed trait

2. Understand that genotypes can be heterozygous or homozygous and that 1 dominant allele means that the dominant trait will be expressed

3. Participate in an activity to show the probability of the expression of different traits and determine the genotypes and phenotypes of the individuals

NJCCCS 5.1  & 5.5

 23.Easter Egg Genetics

Study Island Assignments Due

 

 

4/27

Genetics-2 TSWBAT

1. Understand that a genotype is  an organisms particular combination of paired alleles while the phenotype represents the expressed trait

2. Understand that genotypes can be heterozygous or homozygous and that 1 dominant allele means that the dominant trait will be expressed

3. Use Punnett Squares to determine the genotypes and phenotypes of offspring

NJCCCS 5.1  & 5.5
