PROBABILITY OF INHERITANCE – CONSTRUCTING AND USING PUNNETT SQUARES Individually or with a partner, log onto a Chromebook or regular laptop. You will be working through small exercises that will teach you how to predict offspring traits from reproduction of organisms involving recessive and dominant traits. These exercises will utilize a tool we call the Punnett Square, and will deal with simple math probability. Call up the following address: http://anthro.palomar.edu/mendel/mendel_2.htm Once on this site, begin reading through the information on setting up a Punnett Square. Click on any of the highlighted words that you need additional vocabulary help on. Many of these words are on your Genetic Vocabulary Packet that was handed to you at the beginning of class. After you have read through the website, answer the following questions on this sheet: 1. How do math principles of probability, ratios, and fractions relate to the use of the Punnett Square in genetics? 2. What are some of the valuable uses of the Punnett Square in the world of genetics? *When you have answered the two questions above, take the “Practice Quiz” covering basic Punnett Square principles by clicking on the link at the bottom of the webpage that you just researched. Record your score on this sheet, and any problems that you get wrong, write down the correct answer and why it is the correct answer on the back of this sheet.
