U4S1.2 DNA, Chromosomes & Genes
2
Open Ended
Describe how chromosomes contain genetic information.
3
Describe how chromosomes contain genetic information.
Explain how the genetic information contained in DNA results in specific traits.
Success Criteria:
Ask questions to clarify relationships about the role of DNA and chromosomes in coding the instructions for characteristic traits passed from parents to offspring (HS-LS3-1).
For example, formulate, refine, and evaluate empirically testable questions that arise from examining a model or theory to clarify the relationship between DNA and chromosomes to help understand their respective functions.

Categorize
Individuals with 1 copy of the sickle cell mutation are more resistant to malaria, a disease
Some populations have developed mutations that allow adults to digest lactose (sugar in milk)
BRCA1/BRCA2 Mutations: Increase breast and ovarian cancer risks, affecting health and survival.
Cystic Fibrosis Mutation: Causes thick mucus in lungs, causing respiratory and digestive issues
Mutations are sometimes helpful, and sometimes harmful. Place these genetic mutations into the proper category.
