Inheritance

Tuesday, March 4, 2015 Today we took a quiz on autosomal dominant and recessive traits. Tomorrow there will be a quiz on Sex Linked, multiple alleles and codominance/incomplete dominance. Do the problems in the target packet for practice. Here are some resources on them: [|Blood Type Problems] [|Incomplete vs. Codominance and how to solve problems related] [|Sex Linkage Problems]

Thursday, February 27th Today we learned about genetics problems and wrote problems for your disorder. Read this handout: If you were absent: 1. Read this handout.

2.Watch the following videos and take notes [|How to solve genetic problems] [|Sex linked problems] [|Pedigree Problems]

3. Complete the following assignment. Below is also an example. Here is the assignment:

Wednesday, February 26 Today we did the Meiosis Lab. The analysis is due tomorrow along with the pre-lab. If you need more help understanding meiosis, here are some videos: [|A simulation like we did in the Meiosis Lab] [|McGraw Hill Meiosis] [|Brightstorm Meiosis]

Also, I handed out the following powerpoint info, however, 6b-7 will get it tomorrow as we ran out of time.


 * 1) 1. A brief description of your genetic disorder with fill-in blanks. You will take no more than a minute or two to describe your disorder to your group.


 * 1) 2. You should have **__4 practice problems__** about your disorder that include the following:


 * Giving all information needed to solve the problem
 * Giving information about one parent, but not the other
 * Giving information about children, but not parents
 * Constructing or completing a pedigree.
 * A problem that simultaneously includes your disorder trait and one other trait.

3. Provide a key for the problems showing how each problem is solved.

Tuesday, February 25 Today we went through the following powerpoint and watched the Meiosis Square dance. Most of the lab analysis questions can be completed, though we won't do the lab until tomorrow. Here is the powerpoint: Here is the Square Dance Link [|Meiosis Square Dance]

Here is the Lab

Here is the Meiosis Target Practice



Monday, February 24 Today we test journaled and started the Wiki for the genetics project. Here is the Lab Handout--complete the prelab for tomorrow.
