1. Choose a couple, draw them including their genotype and phenotype. 2.Draw what their children might look like and give it a name. 3.If the Little Miss’s are heterozygous for their partners problematic characteristic, e.g. Cc for co-ordination, show the possible gene pairings and chances of each being seen in their offspring. 4.Your couple have a genetic screening of their developing embryo and find it to have the same code as Dad! Create a thought bubbles of what could be going through the couples minds.
