QUICK LAB
What’s the Difference
Between a Dominant Trait
and a Recessive Trait?
In this lab you will simulate crosses between different colored flowers.
The results of the crosses will help you see patterns of inheritance that
involve dominant and recessive traits.
PROCEDURE
Your teacher will tell you what the colored beads represent.
Write down which bead represents a dominant allele and which
bead represents the recessive allele.
___________________________________________________
___________________________________________________
Which pair(s) of alleles will result in the dominant trait showing
in the phenotype?
OBJECTIVE
• Observe the
relationship
between
phenotype
and genotype.
MATERIALS
For each student pair
• bag, paper lunch
• beads, 2 colors
(6 of each color)
• paper
• pencil
________________________________________________________________________
Which pair(s) of alleles will result in the recessive trait showing in the phenotype?
________________________________________________________________________
If you remove a total of four beads from the bag, how many combinations
of alleles are possible with two colors of beads?
________________________________________________________________________
Without looking, remove two beads at random from the bag to represent the maternal
genotype. Then remove another two beads at random to represent the paternal genotype.
Write down the two pairs of beads you selected.

Follow Steps 6 – 10 on back
What can you conclude about the F2 phenotypic ratios if one parent is homozygous
dominant and the other is homozygous recessive?

Simulate a parental monohybrid cross between the two genotypes by entering the alleles in the
gray boxes in the table below (called a Punnett square). When these two parents are crossed,
the four possible offspring outcomes (white boxes) represent the F1 generation.
Maternal genotype
Paternal
genotype
What phenotypes do you see in the F1 generation?
________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________
Take any two of the genotypes from your table for the F1 generation and simulate another
monohybrid cross between the two genotypes by entering the alleles in the table below. This
represents the F2 generation.
Maternal genotype
Paternal
genotype
What phenotypes do you see in the F2 generation?

________________________________________________________________________
Repeat Steps 5 through 9 until you have simulated several different combinations of alleles (from Step 4).
(If you get the same color beads, draw again – you want to cross different genotypes each time.) Create
additional Punnett squares on a separate piece of paper if needed.
