A comprehensive overview of key concepts in genetics, covering Gregor... Show more
This page discusses the foundational work in genetics from the 19th and 20th centuries.
Key points covered:
The page includes multiple choice questions asking students to identify:
Highlight: Gregor Mendel's work with pea plants in the mid-19th century was the beginning of our modern understanding of genetics.
Vocabulary: DNA is the chemical substance that makes up genetic material, identified by scientists in the mid-20th century.
This page explores the concepts of dominant and recessive alleles and their expression.
Key points:
Definition: A recessive allele is only expressed as a characteristic when the dominant allele is not present.
Example: In the pea plant height experiment, crossing tall plants with short plants resulted in all tall offspring in the first generation.
Vocabulary: Genotype refers to the specific alleles an organism possesses for a trait.
This page demonstrates the use of Punnett squares to predict offspring genotypes and phenotypes.
Key concepts covered:
The page includes practice problems for students to complete a Punnett square and determine offspring ratios.
Example: A completed Punnett square for Tt x Tt shows: TT, Tt, Tt, tt
Highlight: The ratio of tall to short plants in this cross is 3:1.
This page describes one of Gregor Mendel's original experiments with pea plant flower color.
Key points:
The page includes questions about:
Vocabulary: F₁ refers to the first filial generation of offspring in a genetic cross.
Example: A genetic diagram for the F₁ generation cross: RR x rr → Rr
This page continues the discussion of Mendel's flower color experiment and explores the concept of breeding true.
Key points covered:
The page includes questions asking students to:
Definition: Breeding true means that an organism consistently produces offspring with the same trait over multiple generations.
Highlight: Red-flowering pea plants often carry a hidden recessive white allele, making it difficult to guarantee 100% red-flowering offspring.
This page describes another of Mendel's experiments, focusing on pea seed color inheritance.
Key points:
The page includes questions asking students to:
Vocabulary: Inherited factors, as Mendel called them, are now known as genes.
Highlight: The yellow seed color allele must be dominant, as it appears in all first-generation offspring.
This page reinforces key genetic terminology and concepts introduced throughout the document.
Key points covered:
The page includes questions asking students to:
Definition: Genes are inherited factors that determine specific traits in organisms.
Highlight: Understanding the relationship between genotype and phenotype is crucial for predicting inheritance patterns.
This page provides a comprehensive review of Gregor Mendel's experiments and their significance in the field of genetics.
Key points:
The page includes questions prompting students to:
Quote: "Mendel's work was the beginning of our modern understanding of genetics."
Highlight: Mendel's use of mathematical ratios to describe inheritance patterns was revolutionary for his time.
This final page explores how the genetic principles discovered by Mendel and subsequent researchers are applied in modern contexts.
Key points covered:
The page includes questions asking students to:
Example: A Punnett square for eye color genetics can help predict the likelihood of offspring having certain eye colors based on parental genotypes.
Highlight: Understanding genetic inheritance patterns is crucial for developing treatments for genetic disorders and improving crop yields in agriculture.
This page contains a quiz covering key concepts in genetics and inheritance.
The quiz includes questions on:
Vocabulary: An allele is a different version of a gene.
Example: A Punnett square for a heterozygous brown-eyed father and blue-eyed mother is shown.
Highlight: Gregor Mendel discovered that some characteristics are dominant over others through his pea plant experiments.

The app is very easy to use and well designed. I have found everything I was looking for so far and have been able to learn a lot from the presentations! I will definitely use the app for a class assignment! And of course it also helps a lot as an inspiration.

This app is really great. There are so many study notes and help [...]. My problem subject is French, for example, and the app has so many options for help. Thanks to this app, I have improved my French. I would recommend it to anyone.

Wow, I am really amazed. I just tried the app because I've seen it advertised many times and was absolutely stunned. This app is THE HELP you want for school and above all, it offers so many things, such as workouts and fact sheets, which have been VERY helpful to me personally.

Just amazing. Let's me revise 10x better, this app is a quick 10/10. I highly recommend it to anyone. I can watch and search for notes. I can save them in the subject folder. I can revise it any time when I come back. If you haven't tried this app, you're really missing out.

This app has made me feel so much more confident in my exam prep, not only through boosting my own self confidence through the features that allow you to connect with others and feel less alone, but also through the way the app itself is centred around making you feel better. It is easy to navigate, fun to use, and helpful to anyone struggling in absolutely any way.

The app's just great! All I have to do is enter the topic in the search bar and I get the response real fast. I don't have to watch 10 YouTube videos to understand something, so I'm saving my time. Highly recommended!

very reliable app to help and grow your ideas of Maths, English and other related topics in your works. please use this app if your struggling in areas, this app is key for that. wish I'd of done a review before. and it's also free so don't worry about that.

I know a lot of apps use fake accounts to boost their reviews but this app deserves it all. Originally I was getting 4 in my English exams and this time I got a grade 7. I didn’t even know about this app three days until the exam and it has helped A LOT. Please actually trust me and use it as I’m sure you too will see developments.

THE QUIZES AND FLASHCARDS ARE SO USEFUL AND I LOVE THE SCHOOLGPT. IT ALSO IS LITREALLY LIKE CHATGPT BUT SMARTER!! HELPED ME WITH MY MASCARA PROBLEMS TOO!! AS WELL AS MY REAL SUBJECTS ! DUHHH 😍😁😲🤑💗✨🎀😮

This apps acc the goat. I find revision so boring but this app makes it so easy to organize it all and then you can ask the freeeee ai to test yourself so good and you can easily upload your own stuff. highly recommend as someone taking mocks now
