Finding a Gene on the Chromosome Map
Source Institutions
    
  In this activity, learners use pedigree and jigsaw puzzles to explore how scientists use genetic information from a family to identify a gene associated with a genetic disorder.
   
Hatch-a-Cyst
Source Institutions
    
  What is the optimal environment for hatching brine shrimp? Using a scaffold, learners design and conduct experiments testing the effect of a single abiotic factor on brine shrimp cyst hatch rate.
   
Pick the Risk: The Polygenic Pedigree Challenge
Source Institutions
    
  In this activity, learners are challenged to track and record the passage of colored pom poms (representing genes) through generations of a family using a pedigree.
   
Reading DNA
Source Institutions
    
  In this activity, learners use edible models of the DNA molecule to transcribe an mRNA sequence, and then translate it into a protein.
   
Have Your DNA and Eat It Too
Source Institutions
    
  In this activity, learners build edible models of DNA, while learning basic DNA structure and the rules of base pairing.
