MENDELIAN GENETICS BOOKLET
Parents and Students:
An important project ('Mendelian Genetics Booklet') is due on Friday the 29th (tomorrow). Students should have a pink handout describing the project.
If, for some reason, students lose this handout, it is available as a PDF file here.
Our class has already spent part of three periods assembling and labeling the basic parts of th booklet. Now it's up to the student to complete this assessment!
