Teacher Notes

A. Prior to the lesson:

1. Arrange students into groups. Each group needs at least ONE person who has a mobile device.

2. If their phone camera doesn't automatically detect and decode QR codes, ask students to

3. Print out the QR codes.

4. Cut them out and place them around your class / school.

B. The lesson:

1. Give each group a clipboard and a piece of paper so they can write down the decoded questions and their answers to them.

2. Explain to the students that the codes are hidden around the school. Each team will get ONE point for each question they correctly decode and copy down onto their sheet, and a further TWO points if they can then provide the correct answer and write this down underneath the question.

3. Away they go! The winner is the first team to return with the most correct answers in the time available. This could be within a lesson, or during a lunchbreak, or even over several days!

C. TIPS / OTHER IDEAS

4. A detailed case study in how to set up a successful QR Scavenger Hunt using this tool can be found here.

Question

Answer

1. This is the study of genes,heredity, and genetic variation in living organisms?GENETICS
2. The first law of heredity is the the Law of ___________: factors separate when they form gametes.SEGREGATION2
3. This is a specific region of DNA that codes for a particular protein.GENE3
4. The second law of heredity is the Law of _____________: When there are 2 forms of the trait, but only one shows while the other is masked.DOMINANCE4
5. This term is a term for different forms of a gene (brown, blue, or green eyes).ALLELE5
6. This term refers to a genotype consisting of two identical alleles of a gene for a particular trait (AA or aa). This also is referred to as a purebred.HOMOZYGOUS6
7. a __________ consists of two different alleles of a gene for a particular trait (the letters)GENOTYPE7
8. The third law of heredity is the Law of _____________ ______________: The traits are passed on randomly or independently of each other.INDEPENDENT ASSORTMENT8
9. ________ often do not show any signs of the trait but can pass it on to their offspring. This is the case with hemophilia.CARRIER9
10. Neither allele is dominant or recessive, so that both appear in the phenotype or influence it. Type AB blood is an example of ___________?CODOMINANCE10
11. This is the allele that is masked.RESSESIVE ALLELE11
12. This is a genotype consisting of two different alleles of a gene for a particular trait (Aa). This is also called a hybrid.HETEROZYGOUS12
13. ________ is the observable or detectable characteristics of an individual organism (widow's peak).PHENOTYPE13
14. ___________is the likelihood that a specific event will occur.PROBABILITY14
15. A ________________ is a simple graphical method of showing all of the potential combinations of offspring genotypes that can occur and their probability given the parent genotypes.PUNNETT SQUARE14
16. This is the allele that is expressed.DOMINANT ALLELE15
17. This is referring to a gene that is carried by an X sex chromosome.X_LINKED16
