- 1. Punnett Squares ⪢ A diagram used to predict the genotypes of a particular cross or breeding experiment. ⪢ Named after Reginald Punnett who created the technique.
- 2. Punnett Square Virtual Lab Click this link to perform the virtual lab: http://www.glencoe.com/sites/common_asset s/science/virtual_labs/E09/E09.html READ THE INSTRUCTIONS!

- 3. Go the classwork section and complete the Actively assignment: Punnett Squares
- 4. Cross a heterozygous black (Bb) cat with a homozygous recessive (bb) brown cat. What will the offspring look like (phenotype)? What will be the possible genotypes? Punnett Square Tutorial with Ms. Perry :) Click on the link for help!
- 5. Cross a red flower (RR) with a heterozygous red flower (Rr). What will the offspring look like (phenotype)? What will be the possible genotypes?
- 6. What is Independent Assortment? ⪢ States that the alleles of two (or more) different genes get sorted into gametes independently of one another ⪢ In other words, the allele a gamete receives for one gene does not influence the allele received for another gene
- 8. What is the Law of Segregation? ⪢ Only one of the two gene copies present in an organism is distributed to each gamete (egg or sperm cell) that it makes ⪢ Where the gene ends up is totally random
- 10. Go the classwork section and complete the Actively assignment: Non-Mendelian Inheritance
