IN CLASS: ESLP Project Reminder!
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 does meiosis produce and where in the body does it take place? [5]
Go over Bikini Bottom Genetics Practice [10]
Dihybrid crosses and Punnett squares [20]
Dihybrid cross practice (on new stamp log)

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]
Genetics Virtual Triathalon: Legs 2 and 3
