Printable activity: A Recipe for Traits – Students create a “DNA recipe” for a dog by randomly selecting strips of paper that represent DNA. They then decode the DNA recipe to reveal the physical traits of their dog and create a final drawing of the organism. Students learn that differences in the DNA recipe lead to different traits.

  1. The link for Crazy Plant Shop is not working.

    1. Thanks for reporting all of the broken links! You are awesome!! I’ll get them fixed up asap! 🙂

  2. Do you have an answer page for the guinea page worksheet? Thanks

    1. No, I’m sorry, there doesn’t appear to be an answer sheet for that one. I’d use the top example as the model for the others. So, for the first dark guinea pig – it has the gametes BL, Bl, bL, and bl. The white one has the gametes bL bL, bl, and bl. You write those in the table and then combine them as shown in the first example. I hope this helps!
