Fast Plants: Dihybrid Genetics and Probability
The lesson targets high school students. It aims to impart a solid understanding of genetics and probability through hands-on activities featuring Wisconsin Fast Plants. Covering an introduction to Dihybird crosses, Mendelian principles, Punnett Squares, and a hands-on Fast Plant activity. The driving question explores applying genetics and probability to predict dihybrid offspring traits using Punnett squares.
