Investigate inheritance and learn how traits are passed down from parents to children.<\/li>\n<li>Learn about dominant and recessive genes and play inheritance games to determine how traits will be expressed.<\/li>\n<li>Learn about the biology of reproduction, the components of cells, and how chromosomes are combined and copied. Assemble a model to see the elegant <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Nucleic_acid_double_helix\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">double-stranded helical structure of DNA<\/a>. Then crack the genetic code and find out how the different parts, called nucleotides, fit together. Analyse DNA evidence to identify suspects and solve a crime.<\/li>\n<li>Breed your own bacteria colony to experiment with survival of the fittest.<\/li>\n<li>Read about how mutation affects genes and how scientists clone plants and animals.
