- Observe inheritance of a single trait through multiple generations
- Super-fast generation cycle of 35 to 40 days
- Quick setup, quick results
Grades 8-12. How do we inherit certain traits? Students explore Mendelian genetics through growing and pollinating F
1 hybrid plants to produce F
2 seed. Analysis of inheritance is based on segregation of one gene in the F
2 generation. The experiment illustrates the principles of inheritance of unit characters, dominance, and segregation.
The entire experiment takes only 55 days.
Classroom Kit includes enough materials for a class of 30 students.
