Quiz - Moved to Wednesday

Good Afternoon,
Sorry I'm not in class today, I'm at home with the stomach flu :( I'd much rather be at school.

So please work on the following items and use the links on the right to correct the genetics questions that you choose to practice.

1) Take 15  minutes to finish the two multiple allele questions that we didn't get to yesterday.  Then choose from the questions that are *(star) A and *B or *A and *C.  You can try dihybrids that include multiple alleles (i.e. blood types) and codominance and/or regular dominance.  Try two of these.
** Please check your answers.  We'll do a study session tomorrow at lunch to review dihybrids and othe practice questions.

2) Next you will work on your Body System's project (the sub will hand out a summarized version that just focuses on you choosing a disease or disorder that is of interest or importance to you.)  You do have this assignment already but I thought a narrowed down version would be less confusing. 
- Today you need to select a topic and let the sub know.
- Start your disease research
**Remember to cite your sources

- Please assemble the final product into google pres or google doc to share with me.

- Today will count as one of your work days, so please use your time wisely.
