HONORS BIOLOGY
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Objectives: Be able to (1) explain how the theoretical probability of an organism inheriting a particular allele combination from its parents (and trait) can be determined using a Punnett Square and (2) how these odds can be used in breeding and family planning
- Warm-up: What is an allele? How does the concept of alleles allow for different traits/genetic diversity and, ultimately, the formation of new species from existing ones? [10]
- Probabilities for dominant/recessive genetic inheritance patterns and Punnett squares [20]
- Start Genetics Virtual Triathlon: Leg 2 and Leg 3 [15]
- Check Bikini Bottom Genetics Practice [~15]
- TSOTS Student Blog Post Assignment #7 (Thursday/Friday)
OUTSIDE OF CLASS:
- Genetics Virtual Triathlon: Legs 2 and 3 (Punnett square practice)
- Meiosis performance art

- Warm-up: Unit 8 Exam Answer Sheet Set-up [1]
- Unit 8 Exam [50]
