Oh Me, Oh Mei-osis: Just Like Me… Objective: To determine how common certain phenotypes are within a population. Hypothesis: Based on the number of people in your class, how many do you think will have the same phenotypes on certain traits as you do? © Getting Nerdy, LLC

Oh Me, Oh Mei-osis: Just Like Me… What You Do: Use the chart on your paper to survey yourself for each of the traits. Then, survey your class mates. When you are done, complete the graph on the following page. For each of your traits, create a bar graph indicating the number of people that shared your traits. Compare your chart with others in your class, then answer the questions that follow. © Getting Nerdy, LLC

Oh Me, Oh Mei-osis: Just Like Me… Answer the following on your paper: How many people in your class shared all of your traits? How many people in your class shared zero traits? How do your results compare to your prediction? Explain your answer. In this survey, we compared only a handful of the over 100,000 traits that make up the human genome. Based on this and your results, what do you think are the chances that you would find another person in your school, in this country, or even the world, who has the exact same traits as you? Discuss. You should observe that it is highly unlikely that anyone in the world will have the same traits as you do, unless of course, you are a TWIN! © Getting Nerdy, LLC
