• 00:59 Clay Creature Offspring Lab Featured

  We conducted a lab where students received a set of instructions for different traits from 2 parents to model what happens in real life. Then students used their set of instructions and the code that went along with the instructions to find out the traits to the offspring. Next, they created out of modeling clay an offspring that demonstrated the traits that it was supposed to have based on the genetic instructions. Students really loved getting active with their hands and seeing in action how traits and genetics can work.
