Description:

This is a soft chalk activity that provides brief descriptions and examples of many different forms of alternative (non-mendelian) inheritance, then asks students to match each type of alternative inheritance with an example / case study that represents it. The alternative inheritance types included in the activity are: genetic heterogeneity, incomplete dominance, codominance, reduced penetrance, variable expressivity, epistasis, pleiotropy, mitochondrial inheritance, genomic imprinting, lethal allele combinations, multiple alleles specifying one trait, phenocopies, and uniparental disomy.
