Learning Objectives

At the end of this simulation, you will be able to:
  • Elaborate on the transmission of traits from parents to offspring and the factors contributing to variations among siblings.
  • Illustrate Mendels Laws of Inheritance in the context of colorblindness.
  • Contrast and anticipate the traits of offspring based on provided genotypes using Punnett squares.
  • Examine the roles of dominant and recessive alleles and their significance in an individuals biological composition.

How do virtual labs work?

Enhance students' involvement in science by immersing them in interactive learning scenarios. Create simulations for experiments, provide hands-on training in laboratory techniques, and convey theoretical concepts through captivating visual experiences to improve their overall long-term learning outcomes.

  • Access over 300 web-based simulations that are compatible with laptops, Chromebooks, tablets, and iPads, eliminating the need for software installation.
  • Incorporate a teacher dashboard for automated grading and monitoring of student progress.
  • Utilize embedded quizzes to assist students in mastering scientific content.
  • Comprehensive repository of educational materials, including learning resources, lab reports, videos, theory pages, graphics, and more.
