Description

When Austrian monk Gregor Mendel began observing and analyzing various traits of pea plants in the 1800s, little did he realize that his work would eventually become a foundation for the basis of modern genetics.

• Using special chips and “double dice,” students can simulate both monohybrid and dihybrid crosses
• After crosses, students determine genotypic and phenotypic ratios for select traits
• Compare values to theoretical “ideal” values as put forth by Mendel
• Contains enough materials for 15 groups
