SPECIFICATION

  • This breeding simulation is designed for senior students (16+) and encourages the development of skills in critical thinking and problem solving as well as promoting an understanding of the scientific method.
    As a teaching tool, Drosophila Genetics 
  • Breeding Simulation Environment
  • Plant Construction Kit
  • Interactive on screen Lab Book (New)
  • Detailed procedures
  • Interactive counters which save time with firsthand data collection
  • Interactive Punnett Squares
  • Auto-marking of procedure, data collection and questions
  • ?Students visually count, categorize and record the individual flies, making this a realistic science experience rather than a secondhand data exercise.
  • Teachers now have the option to allow the students to use an auto-count system to count up to 10,000 flies in seconds, allowing longer experiments, such as those including the calculation of linkage distances, to be completed quickly.
  • Student reporting is now an option. Students are required to fill in the number and type of flies they observe before the program allows auto-counting, providing the teacher with a report on the students accuracy while counting.
  • The interactive auto-marking labs guide students through 22 labs in the areas of:
  • Single Genes
  • Double Genes
  • Test Cross
  • X-linked Genes
  • X-linked Incomplete Dominance
  • Linked Genes Inheritance
  • Calculation of Linkage Distance 8. Dominant Genes
  • Dominant Lethal Genes
