Objectives:
     1) To analyze a monohybrid cross for kernal color on corn.
     2) To complete a human karyotype in a computer simulation and a cut and paste.

Group based learning, no notes.
 
 

	I.    Terms to identify for corn genetics: homozygous heterozygous hemizygoud dominant recessive codominant incomplete dominance phenotype genotype monohybrid cross dihybrid cross
	Expected Ratios for a monohybrid cross: 1:2:1 Genotypic ratio 3:1    Phenotypic ratio                   Photos from Dr. Hewlett's website

Mitosis
 

Terms to Identify for Mitosis: Diploid (2N) Interphase -  G1 -  S -  G2 -  G0 -  Prophase -  Metaphase - Anaphase - Telophase -

For the stages:
 

Meiosis:

For Meiosis, be able to define: Meiosis I Meiosis II Homologous Pairs Synapsis Crossing Over Reduction Division Nondisjunction Events

Karyotype Features:
-- size of chromosomes
-- length of arms
-- banding pattern
