Hands-On Investigation of Genetic Inheritance

Solve the puzzle of how genes are inherited and sometimes appear or disappear as the family tree grows. Using these 36 magnetic shapes, representing males and females with the three possible genetic combinations (affected, carriers, or not affected), students will investigate all types of genetic inheritance, including complete or incomplete dominance, whether autosomal or sex-linked. Includes teacher's guide with real-life case studies and lesson outlines as well as reproducible student work sheets. Appropriate for grades 7 and up.
