Final Report from Long Branch High School, Long Branch, New Jersey, Grade 10- Block Biology Class

Our class is still in the process of completing the project as it was designed. One of the most important ideas that we learned is that a dominant trait does not necessarily have to be the most observed in a population. For example, white forelock is a dominant trait yet we only observed one person out of 364 surveyed, with this trait.

If we had the chance to do this project again, we would start it earlier.We are still in the process of analyzing the data, therefore, we cannot state an outcome as of yet.

We expect to find the classical 3:1 ratio observed by Mendel.

In order to analyze this large quantity of data, we are in the process of working in collaborative groups and constructing graphs on excel that will assist us in this endeavor.
