Genetics
A handout on genetic inheritance begins with a reading on alleles and how they can result in albinism. Junior geneticists learn to complete Punnett squares and participate in a coin toss simulation of allele pairing. They also learn...
Curated OER
Simple Genetics Practice Problems
Geneticists of the future identify heterozygous and homozygous genotypes, describe phenotypes, and use Punnett squares to solve problems and determine characteristics of offspring. A total of 15 questions make this a compact quiz or...

Oompah Loompa Genetics
In this genetics worksheet, students use descriptive information about the different types of Oompa Loompas to show genotype and phenotype plus dominant and recessive traits. This worksheet has 12 problems to solve.
Curated OER
Genetic Technology
In this genetic worksheet, high schoolers will complete 4 fill in the blank questions about selective breeding and determining genotypes. Then students will use a Punnett square to determine the genotype for two different breeding...

Biology Wise: Homozygous vs. Heterozygous
Genetic traits are described as homozygous or heterozygous based on allele similarity. Homozygosity and heterozygosity are explained in this resource. Includes a chart highlighting their differences and some examples that occur in humans.
