Learning competency
Demonstrates understanding that Mendel’s Law can be used in explaining the role of meiosis in producing
genetic variation
I. LEARNING OBJECTIVES
At the end of the lesson the students should be able to;
1. Use a punnet square or probabilities to predict the result of test cross and state the phenotype and
genotype ratios of Mendelian trait.

II. SUBJECT MATTER

A. Topic: Mendelian Genetics
B. References: Science learners Module page.337-341.
C. Materials: Power Point Presentation and Manila Paper
III. LEARNING EPISODES
A. Daily Routine
1. Prayer
2. Greetings
3. Checking of Attendance
B. Review
IV. LESSON PROPER

A. Activity
For you to be able to really understand the Mendelian laws, let’s have the activity.
The title of the activity is “TOSSING COINS AND PROBABILITY”
Each member will present their work in front of their classmates.

Head (H) Tail (h)

Total
Percentage
Ratio of the
combination

Procedure :
1. In manila paper make a chart similar to this one.
2. Toss a coin. If head comes up,mark column 1
If a tail, then mark column 2
MAKE 50 TOSSES OF COIN.
3. Get the total number of times each face of the coin appears. Calculate the percentage of the
appearance of each face.to compute the percentage (total/50)x 100%
4. Let us assume that the coin represents the genotype of a parent, and each face is an allele, with
the heads as DOMINANT ALLELE (H) and the tail as the RECESSIVE ALLELE (h)

QUESTION
1. What is the ratio of heads to tails?
2.What is the ratio of the gametes of this parents with heterozygous genotype?
 Head- Head- Tail-Tail(hh)
Head Tail (Hh)
(HH)
Total
Percentage
Ratio of the
combination

Procedure :

5. In the same Manila paper make a chart similar to this one.

6. Toss the two coins together. If a head-head combination appears, mark column 1
If head-tail,, mark column 2
If tail-tail, mark, column 3
MAKE 50 TOSSES OF THE COINS.

7. Get the total number of times of each combination appears. Calculate the percentage of the
appearance of each combination. To compute the percentage: (Total/50) x100%
Question:
3. What is the ratio of a head-head, head-tail and tail-tail combination when you make 50 tosses?
4. If you toss the same coins in 100,000 times, would you approximately get the same ratio?
5. Let the head (H) represent a dominant gene and the tail (h) a recessive gene
Compare the ratio you obtained in this activity with the one obtained by Mendel in his
monohybrid F2 generation (see table 3) peas. Are they approximately similar?

B. Analysis
What is a punnet square?
What is di hybrid cross?
C. Abstraction
Punnet Square is a useful tool to do genetic crosses
For a TEST cross, you need a square divided by four….
We use the Punnett square to predict the genotypes and phenotypes of the offspring.

Di hybrid is a cross between individual that involve two heterozygous pair of gene

D. Application
Student will perform an activity and identify the phenotypic and genotypic ratio
of the give cross.

Procedure:
Let D= dominant allele
d= recessive allele
DD will represent the homozygous dominant, heterozygous dominant, and homozygous
recessive genotype. Determine the genotypic and phenotypic ratio.

CROSS GENOTYPIC RATIO PHENOTYPIC RATIO

1. DD XDD
2. DD X Dd
3. DD X dd
4. Dd X Dd
5.Dd x dd
6. dd x dd

F. Assignment
What is di hybrid cross?
