honors genetics
What did we do in class today?
Learning Target: I can interpret and build pedigrees.
Warm-up: What is the probability that two parents who are heterozygous at three genes (A, B, and C) will have children who are also heterozygous? Activities: 1. Notes: How to interpret pedigrees 2. Pedigree practice 3. Dihybrids, trihybrids, prep for quiz HW: Study for double quiz tomorrow/prepare notebook

Learning Target: I can solve and interpret trihybrid crosses.
Warm-up: Show the cross between a parent who is heterozygous for two traits and a parent who is homozygous recessive for two traits. Activities: 1. Notes: How to solve trihybrid crosses 2. Dihybrid/Trihybrid cross practice HW: Complete lab and practice problems if incomplete in class Learning Target: I can solve and interpret dihybrid crosses.
Hand-in: Mendelian history online activity to red bucket. Warm-up: Describe, in detail, how Mendel established his laws of genetics. Activities: 1. Notes: How to solve dihybrid crosses 2. Dihybrid cross practice, front and back of first page and front of second page (#s 1-8 and 1-3) 3. Lab work HW:
Learning Target: I can describe the history of Mendelian Genetics.
Warm-up: Show the work for a cross between a heterozygote and homozygous recessive individual. Activities: 1. Collect class data for alien lab 2. Online Mendelian history activity (computer lab) HW:
Class Data for Alien Lab: Learning Target: I can explain how statistics is involved in predicting outcomes of genetic crosses
Warm-up: Identify whether the genotypes below are homozygous or heterozygous AND if they will express the dominant or recessive traits. a) AA b) aa c) Aa Activities: 1. Progress Check Activity 2. Alien building lab HW: Finish #1 in conclusion questions if incomplete in class (we will collect class data when we return) Learning Target: I can apply vocabulary definitions to genetics problems
Warm-up: Describe the importance of sexual reproduction. What cells are involved in sexual reproduction? Activities: 1. Complete vocabulary cards 2. Vocabulary with white boards 3. Simple genetics practice problems HW: Complete practice problems Unit 3 Test Day Homework on unit 4 outline (do only 4 words instead of all the words)
Learning Target: I can describe the effects of teratogens on developing fetuses.
Hang your teratogen poster if not already hung. Warm-up: Define teratogen. List one example of the effect of a teratogen. 1. Teratogen posters 2. Quiz analysis:
4. Before leaving: Ticket out the door HW: Study for test (vocab, unit summary) Learning Target: I can describe the effects of teratogens on fetal development.
Please hand in lab to red bucket. No warm-up, study for quiz. Activities:
Study for test Wednesday (vocab, unit summary done?) Learning Target: I can describe the major events of pregnancy
Warm-up: Describe the role of folic acid (folate) in development Activities: 1. Fetal events matching cards (finish information if needed) 2. Practice Quiz: Plickers 3. Complete lab - added to homework if in complete in class today HW: Study for quiz Monday |
