Genetics Complete Materials Package

Students consider whether to be tested for a hereditary condition as they explore fundamental principles of Mendelian genetics. Laboratory activities and simulations allow students to examine the inheritance of traits through generations. Students investigate heredity among imaginary “critters,” pea plants, and humans. Other activities focus on the difference between asexual and sexual reproduction, the process of cell division, and the role of nature and nurture in determining traits. Near the end of the unit, students model the use of DNA technologies to solve real-world problems.

Included are all materials for up to 5 classes of 32 students (or 160 students), mobile storage cart, Online Teacher Portal access for one teacher for 7 years, which includes: Spanish versions, LABsent, PowerPoints, Teacher’s Edition, Student Book, and supplemental resources.
