Bug Babies Activity
Day 1
Today we are going to cross two bugs. The two bugs are heterozygous for each trait. You will roll a die to determine if the baby gets the dominant or recessive trait. If you roll an odd number, the dominant trait is passed to the offspring and if you roll an even number the recessive trait is passed to the offspring. Roll the die for each trait, recording your outcomes as you go.
ODD = dominant trait
EVEN = recessive trait
You are to write down the babies genotype and phenotype in the corresponding columns on your worksheet.
