Beginning Easy to perform; requires little or no prior knowledge. For up to 32 students working in pairs. This is an introductory genetics activity for a beginning high school or middle school biology course. Students study the inheritance of grain color using ears of corn. Each grain is the F 2 of a cross between a homozygous red corn and a homozygous white corn. Covers the basics of Mendelian genetics including the inheritance of a single pair of alleles, one of which is dominant and the other recessive. Students score the phenotypes of the F 2 and compare their data to their predictions.
