Description
Engage your biology students with this hands-on worksheet that explores codominance, multiple alleles, and blood type inheritance through Punnett square analysis! Students will practice predicting genotypes and phenotypes using real-world examples of human blood types (A, B, AB, and O).
This resource helps students connect genetic patterns to a familiar concept — blood types — while reinforcing key terms like alleles, genotype, phenotype, dominant, recessive, and codominance.
What’s Included:
- Short background reading on how blood types are inherited
- Step-by-step Punnett square examples
- Five practice problems that increase in difficulty with answer key
- Colorful layout for easy classroom or clean white layout for homework use
- Great for Genetics Units, Intro to Codominance, or Review before exams
Skills Covered:
- Identifying genotype → phenotype relationships
- Applying Punnett squares for multiple alleles
- Understanding codominance and recessive inheritance
- Using real-life examples to interpret human genetics
