Fast Plants: Dihybrid Genetics and Probability
The lesson targets high school students. It aims to impart a solid understanding of genetics and probability through hands-on activities featuring Wisconsin Fast Plants. Covering an introduction to Dihybird crosses, Mendelian principles, Punnett Squares, and a hands-on Fast Plant activity. The driving question explores applying genetics and probability to predict dihybrid offspring traits using Punnett squares.

In this lesson two of four, students have to estimate and guess how much weight each of four factors has on a person's life expectancy, which often causes discomfort. They will ask you for direction
The students receive a sample population of "bears" and use the colors and ratios to determine the genotypes of the captive bears and their parents.
