After we looked the schedules over, we started work on the trait portion of science day, collecting information from the class on phenotypes for several different characteristics, then noting them down and writing them on the board.
Our homework, which can be found on Moodle, is to read pages 92-96 and 110-121. These pages are on the topic of mitosis and meiosis, and pedigrees and karyotypes of genetic disorders. We will be required to participate in class discussion on these.
Example of a Karyotype Profile
The Genetics Test is on Thursday, February 17th, with a review session during class and lunch (if needed) on the 15th of February.
The test will cover the following:
DNA Structure and Parts
The DNA Extraction Lab
Our Genetics Presentations
Punnett Squares
Meiosis
Inherited Traits/Mutations
and Pedigrees and Karyotypes
