1/27 Biology Update and homework due 2/3

Hi folks,

Today we spent some time breaking rules. Mendelian genetics rules that is. We learned about alternatives to Mendel's simple recessive/dominant genetics as we learned about co-dominance, incomplete dominance and multiple alleles.  

For homework this week:

First, take a look at this website https://hobart.k12.in.us/jkousen/Biology/inccodom.htm.

Do the sample questions at the end of each section (there are 5 in all).  Check your answers as well.

Also, make your own quiz. Create questions based on the following concepts and then solve the questions. I'll give you 3 points of extra credit if I end up using your question on an upcoming quiz. Be creative and have fun!

1. Typical Mendelian genetics problem that can be solved using a monohybrid cross.

2. Typical Mendelian genetics problem that can be solved using a dihybrid cross.

3. Incomplete dominance problem that can be solved using a monohybrid cross.

4. Codominance problem that can be solved using a monohybrid cross.

5. A blood type problem problem that can be solved using a monohybrid cross.
