Punnett Square Practice

Here's a review of our genetic work so far:

1. Every organism has a set of instructions that determine its traits.

2. Heredity is the passage of these instructions from parent to offspring.

3. Trait instructions are contained in genes, located in the chromosomes of each cell.

4. Humans have 23 pairs of chromosomes (for a total of 46 chromosomes.)

5. An inherited trait of an individual can be determined by one or by many genes, and a single gene can influence more than one trait.

6. A human cell contains many thousands of different genes.
