View the images of normal and mutated flies. How many chromosomes does a fruit fly have in each of its cells? p. 286 Mendelian Genetics Chapter Access this site to learn more about Mendelian genetics, sex-linked traits and pedigrees. Follow the steps given and complete the exercise in genetic counseling. p. 314 The Human Genome Gene Map Access this site for information about the Human Genome Project. How many human genes encode for proteins? How much of the entire genome do these genes represent? On which chromosome does the gene for cystic fibrosis appear? p. 314 Case Studies in Science This Web page covers the detail of the "Royal Disease" of hemophilia, complete with explanations, pictures, and pedigrees. How common is hemophilia in both men and women? How much more common was the disease in Queen Victoria's family? p. 338 Sex-linked Inheritance Problem Set Visit this site and solve the problems in sex-linked Mendelian genetics. Additional Unit Research Links www.MMBIDOnline.com Read about the latest findings in genetic research and discover tools for testing, screening, gene therapy, and genetic counseling. This site is continually updated to show what progress has been made in the study of inherited diseases. p. 256 Unit 4: Genetics Welcome to MendelWeb Visit this site to learn more about Mendel. Read the English translation of his original 1865 paper on plant hybridization. What did Mendel conclude about the reproductive cells of the hybrids in his experiments? Develop a short presentation to explain this to the rest of the class. BioTech Here is an interactive educational resource and biotechnology reference. Visit the "About BioTech" section and paraphrase BioTech's mission statement and goals in your science journal. Human Genome Project Information Access this site to learn about the U.S. and worldwide Human Genome Project. What is a genome? What are the benefits of mapping the human genome? How much progress has been made so far? What do you believe the ethical issues are in this project? Hold a mock debate in the class to talk about the ethical issues in the human genome project. Roslin Institute Visit this site to read about cloning and nuclear transfer. How did researchers successfully cloned the sheep named Dolly. Record this information in your science journal.
