Jing Graphic

Last semester (Spring 2010), I took biosphere. One of the things he taught us was the types of punnett squares and how to do them. In class my teacher used a graphic similar to the one I created to help us understand the meaning of the square and the possible outcomes that could come by doing it.My graphic I created is about homozygous and heterozygous alleles, and how to cross them to get their possible phenotypes and genotypes. A Punnett Square is summary of every possible combination of one maternal allele with one paternal allele for each gene being studied in the cross. On my picture I did an example of crossing two heterozygous alleles and their possible outcomes. I was excited to use this product because I love to draw and be creative with things I have learned in a classroom. This is an excellent tool to use for teaching information that is sometimes easier to understand after seeing it and explaining it from the picture. All the features and colors allow it to be bright and catch your student's attention.
