Activity 1 Direction: Explain the following question below. Make it short but concise.

1. Are you in favor of the idea that couples should undergo genetic counseling? Why?

2. Why Gregor Mendel chose pea plants for his experiments?

3. How and when did human know that traits are inherited from parents?
Activity 2 These show the 2 alleles of each parent plant crossed with each other and the 4
possible resulting offspring with T=tall, t=short, TT=dominant tall, tt=recessive short, Tt=mixed
hybrid.

TT=dominant tall (genotype tall, phenotype tall) tt=recessive short (genotype short, phenotype
short) Tt= mixed hybrid (genotype hybrid, phenotype hybrid)

Direction: Using the Punnett square below, name the offspring of all the possible parent
combination.

Both parents are mixed hybrids. Name the four possible offspring.
