A. DNA stores and transmits genetic information. Genes are sets of instructions encoded in the structure of DNA.
B. Genetic information is passed from generation to generation by DNA in all organisms and accounts for similarities
in related individuals.
C. Manipulation of DNA in organisms has led to commercial production of biological molecules on a large scale and
genetically modified organisms.
D. Reproduction is characteristic of living things and is essential for the survival of species.

TEST ITEM SPECIFICATIONS
Reporting Category: Classification, Heredity, and Evolution
Clarification :
Students will use Mendel’s laws of segregation and independent assortment to analyze patterns of inheritance.
Students will identify, analyze, and/or predict inheritance patterns caused by various modes of inheritance.
Content Limits :
Items referring to general dominant and recessive traits may address but will not assess the P and F1 generations.
Items addressing dihybrid crosses or patterns that include codominance, incomplete dominance, multiple alleles, sex-linkage, or polygenic inheritance may assess the P and F1
generations.
Stimulus Attributes :
Inheritance outcomes may be expressed in percent, ratios, or fractions.
Scenarios may refer to codominance or incomplete dominance but not both codominance and incomplete dominance.
Punnett squares may be used to predict outcomes of a cross.
Response Attributes :
Options may include codominance or incomplete dominance but not both.
Prior Knowledge :
Items may require the student to apply scientific knowledge described in the NGSSS from lower grades. This benchmark requires prerequisite knowledge of SC.7.L.16.1 and
SC.7.L.16.2.

Dragon Genetics:
Eggenetic Baby:
Description
In this lab, Dragon Genetics: Principles of Mendelian Genetics, students learn the principles of Mendelian genetics by
using Popsicle sticks, each of which represents a pair of homologous chromosomes with multiple genetic traits. Pairs of
students use their sets of Popsicle sticks to represent a mating and then identify the genetic makeup and phenotypic
traits of the resulting baby dragon.
Students will apply their knowledge of genetics and predicting heredity to synthesize an original model of traits.
Students will use appropriate tools (Punnett squares) and techniques to gather, analyze, and interpret data.Students
will explore various modes of inheritance through a hands-on activity creating offspring of a fictitious organism.
Genetics, Genetics, and More Students will complete Punnett Squares for various genetic crosses, and analyze and interpret the results of those
crosses. Students will be able to predict the genotype and phenotype of P1 and F1 generations using Punnett

This is a lab/activity that uses dragons as "research subjects" for genetics research. It highlights independent
assortment as well as gene linkage. Students will do the first part of the activity using independent assortment (genes
on different chromosomes). The second part of the activity looks at genes on the same chromosome, and how
Dragon Genetics -linkage plays a part in allele assortment. It can be used to show how crossing over allows increased variation when
