Unit 7 - Genetics
Essential Standard: Each student will be able to demonstrate that there is a genetic basis for the transfer of biological characteristics from one generation to the next through reproductive processes.
Learning Targets:
-
Using Punnett squares, explain how genotypes and phenotypes are related
-
Recognize the patterns of inheritance that present in genetic crosses (complete dominance, co-dominance, incomplete dominance, sex-linked, multiple alleles, dihybrid, polygenic)
-
Analyze a human karyotype for gender and the presence or absence of a genetic disorder
-
Explain how pedigrees are used to study human traits
