Emoji Genetics

Instructions
Flip a coin (click here) to determine inherited alleles then complete all
columns in the charts provided.
❖ Using the coin flip simulator, flip to determine which allele the
offspring inherited from each parent; heads = dominant allele and tails
= recessive allele.
❖ For the sex of the offspring, only the father’s allele must be
determined; so for the coin flip, heads = X and tails = Y,
❖ Once the allele has been determined, place a circle around the
corresponding letter.
Here is a circle
you may use, Mother Father Genotype Phenotype

paste,
