Monster Genetics Lab

undefined

You have learned about many different patterns of inheritance: dominant or recessive, incomplete dominant or codominant traits. In this lab you will investigate how a combination of these genes works to create an organism.

Part 1 Procedure: (10 pts)

1. Flip a coin twice to determine the genotype for each trait and record it in the data table. Heads = allele 1, Tails = allele 2 (Example: if you flipped heads twice, your monster will have two copies of allele 1 for his genotype.)
2. Determine the phenotype resulting from the allele pair for each trait.
3. Repeat steps 1‐2 for each trait and complete the female monster’s Table 1
