Pair 'Em Up!

Description:

In this lesson, students learn how to use and verify the validity of Punnett squares by using a Weblink for instruction. They will also simulate a real-world situation by drawing chromosomes from a paper bag. Data will be tracked, students will calculate percentages, and cross check their predictions and results by using a Punnett square.
