Many of the genetic sequences found in the fruit fly genome are similar to those found in humans.

In this activity, learners make a 3-D model of DNA using paper and toothpicks. While constructing this model, learners will explore the composition and structure of DNA.

This activity was designed for blind learners, but all types of learners can have a tactile opportunity to construct a karyotype, an organized model of an organism’s chromosomes, conveying the chromos

This "concept demonstration" provides learners with a concrete example (a pair of shoes in a classroom "cell") of what homology means.

In this activity, learners work in groups to match craft sticks that represent chromosomes. Learners must define critical attributes of their chromosomes as they look for matching chromosomes.

In this activity, learners make critters out of recyclables and apply the rules of mathematics to solve genetics problems.
