Genetics Project

Final Report

Posted by Jennifer Allport on Tuesday, 2 November 1999, at 11:33 a.m.

Our class of 9 students, completed our Genetics project. We found out that one of our students were colorblind and on most of the other traits, the class was mostly dominant. We surveyed 5 other E.R. classes along with our class. Altogether there were 41 students surveyed and it turned out that there were a lot of students that were colorblind. Now that we have done this project, all of us understand the life of genetics a little bit better. We had a lot of fun doing this activity with our classmates. It helped us get to know other students in the 6th grade that we didn’t know and we got to learn more about the different traits everyone has. All of the students in my E.R. class are white, including me. Out of the 9 students, 4 are male and 5 are girls. When we found out that some of the students were colorblind, we had them take home a slip to see if their parents, brothers or sisters, or grandparents were colorblind. When we got the responses back, some of the parents were colorblind and some of the brothers and sisters were to, but some didn’t know about their grandparents.
