Description
Engage Students in a Journey of Genetic Discovery!
🧬 Unlocking the Genetic Code: This comprehensive lesson is designed to empower students in unraveling the intricacies of codons, mutations, and mutagens. Through a series of interactive activities, students embark on a captivating exploration of genetic variation.
🔬 Student Activities:
Decoding the Genetic Language: Students are introduced to the fundamental concept of codons and delve into understanding their role in genetic information.
Mysteries of Mutations: Through interactive simulations, students unravel the four basic types of mutations - point, frameshift insertion, frameshift deletion, and inversion. They develop the proficiency to identify and differentiate these genetic alterations.
Codon Exploration: Students engage in the task of deciphering DNA strands into codons. They then repeat the process, discerning the specific DNA mutation that has transpired between the initial and subsequent iterations.
Venturing into Mutagens: Students are introduced to mutagens, agents that induce genetic mutations. They follow the genetic transformations in a human cell, belonging to the intriguing character 'Bob,' who grapples with a series of health-related decisions.
Unraveling Genetic Disorders: Students embark on a research mission, delving into real-world human genetic diseases. They report back on the predominant type of mutation responsible for the onset of these conditions.
