Predicting Inheritance in Year 10 Biology

When making predictions about inheritance of characteristics, the best thing to do is go ahead and reproduce … and this just what the Year 10 Biology class have been doing. ‘Vegetable People’ were created with an assortment of characteristics, to model patterns of inheritance. This activity helped students gain a deeper understanding of Mendelian genetics, whilst giving them the opportunity to be creative and have some fun.
