Procedure: 1. Show YouTube to introduce Pedigrees 2. Review Page 1 of Pedigree packet, figure 1. Students answer questions 1-14 independently. 3. Review Pedigrees of Ptolomey and Queen Victoria 4. Review page 2 of Pedigree packet 5. Review page 4 of Pedigree packet and complete figures 1 and 2 as a class and figure 3 independently. 6. Students complete pedigree packet
Standards: HS-LS3-1. Ask questions to clarify relationships about the role of DNA and chromosomes in coding the instructions for characteristic traits passed from parents to offspring. Objective: Students will be able to understand heredity and how genetics are passed from parents to offspring Materials: 1.

2/5/15 : Probability and Inheritable Traits Standards: HS-LS3-3. Apply concepts of statistics and probability to explain the variation and distribution of expressed traits in a population Objective: To understand probability. To review how traits can be dominant or recessive and how they appear in populations. Materials:
Procedure: Part 1: Probability
Part 2: Class Traits 1. Using the Class Traits Allele Lab worksheet, go through the list of dominant and recessive alleles. a. For each trait have students raise hands and take a count of the number of students with that trait. Then determine the percentage 2. Have students create a graph with the class data a. Collect Graph 3. Have students complete Analysis Questions from Lab Sheet
