The Genetics Kit and Stereomicroscope will allow students to take part in two hands-on laboratory experiments to get full exposure to designing and conducting hands-on science. Students will be able to conduct, carry out, and analyze experiments they have set up and present the information to their peers. They will use the information they have learned to synthesize the concepts of biology and learn as lab scientists do on a daily basis as they make breaking science discoveries. Students will be able to manipulate scientific variables and apply science concepts they have learned about in relation to genetics and circulation of organisms. Students will be able to study the likelihood of inheriting certain traits in genetic monohybrid and dihybrid crosses using Fruit flies. Students will mate the fruit flies and study the physical traits that the offspring have developed from mating. The students will have the ability to cross fruit flies and study the likelihood of developing traits including wing shape and eye color of the flies. They will get to see how traits are passed from parents to offspring and the linked traits in new generation of fruit flies.
