We considered - why do you look like your parents? Why don't all brothers and sisters look alike?
And we also took some time to learn about how flowers engage in reproduction...to better understand how Gregor Mendel ran his experiments with pea plants (What did he try first?)
Why do you look the way you do?
We watched a video about how we've come to understand genetics as humans - we've been selecting traits for a long long time... (corn, dogs, horses, roses, etc.)
We learned about Gregor Mendel and his experiments, (and we learned about plant reproductive organs too!)
Can you explain why Mendel got the results he did?
For full credit, make sure to mark up the text on pp.19, 20, 21 and on p.22 write the crosses (Tall x Tall = Tall, etc.) Also, define traits and genes.
