Genetics includes the study of heredity, or how traits are passed from parents to offspring. The topics of genetics vary and are constantly changing as we learn more about the genome and how we are influenced by our genes.

Mendel & Inheritance powerpoint presentation covering basics of genetics

Heredity Simulation use popsicle sticks to show how alleles are inherited Penny Genetics flip a coin to compare actual outcomes versus predicted outcomes from a punnett square Heredity Wordsearch fill in the blank, find words

Simple Genetics Practice- using mendelian genetics and punnett squares

Genetic Crosses with two traits basic crosses, uses Punnet squares Genetic Crosses with two traits II- basic crossses, uses Punnett squares Dihybrid Crosses in Guinea Pigs(pdf)- step through on how to do a 44 punnett square

Codominance & Incomplete Dominance- basic crosses involving codominance

Genetics Practice Problems includes codominance, multiple allele traits, polygenic traits, for AP Biology Genetics Practice Problems II- for advanced biology students, includes both single allele and dihybrid crosses, intended for practice after students have learned multiplicative properties of statistics and mathematical analysis of genetic crosses

X-Linked Traits practice crosses that involve sex-linkage, mainly in fruitflies

X Linked Genetics in Calico Cats more practice with sex-linked traits Multiple Allele Traits practice with blood type crosses and other ABO type alleles Multiple Allele Traits in Chickens shows how combs are inherited (rrpp x RRpp) Inheritance and Eye Color uses a simulation to show how multiple alleles can influence a single trait (eye color)

The Genetics of Blood Disorders a worksheet with genetics problems that relate to specific disorders: sickle cell anemia, hemophilia, and Von Willebrand disease.
