GENETIC WEB PRACTICE (links to websites on Mrs. Grange’s website)
Goal:
Practice use of genetic vocabulary
Practice correct completion of various genetic problems.
Complete a human karyotype
This website has practice problems with links to vocabulary and other hints. Use this hand-out
to take notes on and to answer some questions. Put this completed hand-out in your journal.
1.
