How is hereditary information passed from one generation to the next? How are the physical characteristics of offspring determined by the combination of genes inherited from parents?
This course focuses on background information that educators will find especially helpful when introducing students to genes and inherited traits. Engaging content, animations, resources, an interactive glossary and self-assessment questions help the participant to gain content knowledge. (3 contact hours)
