Procedure: Using Reference Tables 1 and 2, as well as the internet (if necessary), complete the Character Traits Chart for each of the Sesame Street Characters! **25 Points** Answer the 10 Questions! **10 Points** Choose two Sesame Street characters from which you’d like to see traits passed on. Remember- this activity is hypothetical. Complete the Parent 1 and Parent 2 charts. **5 Points Each** Complete the Punnett Squares for each trait. **4 Points Each totaling 20 Points** Be sure to label each square with the trait and each character used. Choose the traits of the offspring by flipping a coin twice for EACH TRAIT! Pay attention to the side and order in which the coin lands, and circle the appropriate offspring genotypes based on the locations below! Heads then Heads: Top Left Box Heads then Tails: Top Right Box Tails then Heads: Bottom Left Box Tails then Tails: Bottom Right Box Complete the Offspring Chart based on what was circled in the Punnett Squares. Be sure to come up with an appropriate name for the offspring. **10 Points** To determine gender, complete a Punnett Square, and flip a coin the same as above! **5Points** Create a full color drawing of the offspring character, complete with the character’s name as well as the parents’ names! **20 Points** **100 Points Total** Reference Table 1: Genetics of Sesame Street Characters Characteristic Eye Shape Nose Color Lip Color Body Color Hair Type Phenotype Exo (pops out) Genotype Type of Inheritance EE, Ee Dominant / Recessive Endo (flat) ee Pink PP, Pp Orange pp Red MM Purple PP Magenta MP Red or Pink RR Yellow YY Blue BB Purple RB Green BY Orange Brown **Color is Blended into Offspring** RY Dominant / Recessive Incomplete Dominance Multiple Alleles: R, B, Y Incomplete Dominance WW Hair / Fur All Over HH, Hh Bald / Smooth All Over hh Dominant / Recessive Reference Table 2: Pictures of Sesame Street Characters: Big Bird Cookie Monster Grover Oscar the Grouch Abby Cadabby Ernie Bert Count Kermit the Frog Kami Snuffleupagus Rosita Elmo Zoe Ballerina Character Traits Chart Character Gonzo *Example* Big Bird Cookie Monster Grover Oscar the Grouch Ernie Bert The Count Kermit the Frog Abby Cadabby Kami Snuffleupagus Rosita Elmo Zoe Ballerina Phenotype Genotype Phenotype Genotype Phenotype Genotype Phenotype Genotype Phenotype Genotype Phenotype Genotype Phenotype Genotype Phenotype Genotype Phenotype Genotype Phenotype Genotype Phenotype Genotype Phenotype Genotype Phenotype Genotype Phenotype Genotype Phenotype Genotype Gender Eye Shape Nose Color Lip Color Body Color Hair Type Male XY Exo EE (or Ee) Blue NONE Blue None Blue BB Fur All Over HH (or Hh) Questions 1.

What does incomplete dominance mean, and give a unique, personal example. 5. How many genes for body color does any one individual have? 6. What phenotype fits the genotype Hh? 7. How many different forms of the gene for body color could an individual have? 8. What gender genotype do all males have? All Females? 9. How many characters have the exo eye shape? 10. How could an offspring get the green body color phenotype?
