HEREDITY:
INHERITANCE & VARIATION OF TRAITS
Botheads Genetic Simulation—
Super Value Kit
Flow of Genetic Information Kit
Students learn about the complete process of DNA and RNA formation from gene to protein using this one-of-a-kind hands-on kit! Includes over 300 color-coded foam pieces that can be mixed and matched for different activities. Some assembly required. Student and instructor guides available online.
FB2147 I $119.70
Sno-ball Sillies Genetics Simulation—Super Value Laboratory Kit
A new species called “sno-ball sillies” has been discovered in the rain forest, and students become real-world naturalists
as they “breed” a pair of the creatures to identify their traits. Students randomly pick alleles from each parent to create a unique offspring. Then the class pools data to determine parent genotypes.
FB2199 I $65.55
How do inherited characteristics affect an organism’s physical appearance? Students select random gene cards (genotype) and apply basic genetic principles to design and color a personal “Bothead” (phenotype). Students “cross-breed” their “bot” with another to create, draw and color a “hybrid bot.” Students learn about alleles, dominant and recessive traits and effects of mutations. Super Value Kit is completely reusable!
FB1745 I $33.25
Eye Color & Polygenic Inheritance—
Discover the Possibilities!
A Genetics Probablity Activity— Super Value Kit
Students work through this guided-inquiry activity on the principles of Mendelian genet- ics from introductory vocabulary exercises
to manipulations that help them visualize Mendel’s laws of dominance and independent assortment. Students learn about the role of probability in genetics with a simulation of gamete formation in a dihybrid cross using triangular dice. Super Value Kit is completely reusable!
FB0485 I $39.75
Student Laboratory Kit
Students grasp complex genetic concepts by simulating eye color inherited through three generations with an independent assortment of genes and polygenic inheritance. Students complete a family pedigree with dominant alleles from parents as colored bingo chips are drawn from a paper bag. Students then visualize concrete differences in the number of dominant alleles inherited as they add different color solutions drop-wise in a reaction plate.
FB1918 I $32.75
Pond III—Photosynthetic
Microlife Chart
The Pond III Photosynthetic Microlife Chart for biology and life science contains beau- tiful full-color images and micrographs on a durable poster. Bright photos and brief descriptions spark interest.
