Class this week: We still have a few groups left to present their genetic disorder projects this week because many students have been absent or not prepared. I'm also trying to squish in a little bit of teaching and review each day. There will be a quiz this Thursday, 5/9, on Heredity, Chapters C4.1, 4.2, 5.1, 5.2 - these specified sections only.
Table of Contents: Heredity and Genetics Unit Resources for Heredity and Genetics Unit HW = Homework WU = Warm Ups Monday, 5/6 HW: Work on Review Sheet for quiz this Thursday, 5/9 WU: 1.What are the genotypes and phenotypes for gender? 2.Draw a Punnett square for gender that shows the probable outcome of offspring. (C115) 3.What are the chances that a mom and a dad will conceive a boy or a girl? 4.Which do you think would cause more variation in genes of offspring? Sexual reproduction or asexual reproduction? Explain. Tuesday, 5/7 HW: Work on Review Sheet for quiz this Thursday, 5/9 WU: 1.Eye color, skin color, hair color, and hair curliness are all affected by multiple genes. How does that affect the gene expression (phenotype) of these traits? Page NC 13 2.What does incomplete dominance mean (NC 13)? 3.What does co-dominance mean? (think: co-captains of a team) Wednesday, 5/8 HW: Work on Review Sheet for quiz this Thursday, 5/9. Review Sheet KEY WU: Practice multiple choice questions C125, #7 – 12 C127, #1 – 6 Thursday, 5/9 - Quiz today on Heredity and Genetics HW: Retake quiz if you scored below a 70. WU: Page C157, #10 - 14 Page C159, #1 - 3 Friday, 5/10 HW: Retake quiz if you scored below a 70. WU: MOST MISSED QUIZ QUESTIONS! 1.If one parent has two dominant alleles and another parent has two recessive alleles, what percentage of the offspring will have the recessive phenotype? 2.In guinea pigs, the allele for black fur (B) is dominant, and the allele for brown fur (b) is recessive. If a homozygous dominant male mates with a heterozygous female, what percentage of offspring are likely to have black fur?3. Describe the effects that mutations can have. 4. What is the problem in the cell cycle that happens when cancer grows? Comments are closed.
