Students will be be discriminate between a dominant and recessive allele. 2. Students will be able to explain how probability influences the passage of alleles. 3. Students will be able to complete a monohybrid cross using a Punnett square. 4. Students will be able to complete a dihybrid cross using a Punnett square. AUDIENCE: High school freshmen PRE-REQUISTES: Have taken any science lab based program in elementary school; has basic math skills MATERIALS: 1. Text 2. Laboratory Manuals 3. Computer with printer 4. Spiral bound Notebook 5. Pencils and pen EVALUATION |
