Genetics

Realistic simulations like chromosomal inheritance, human genetics, and Mendelian genetics help to unpack the fascinating topic of heredity. Explore our full list of labs to increase success in your genetics course.

Featured Simulations for Genetics

Mendelian Genetics: Monohybrid Fruit Fly Cross

Mendelian Genetics: Monohybrid Fruit Fly Cross , Link will open in a new tab

In this simulation, you will be given a vial of fruit flies with an unknown wing mutation, and then you will observe offspring phenotypes, determine ratio of offspring phenotypes, and predict parental genotypes based on phenotypic ratio of offspring.

DNA Biology and Technology: DNA/RNA Structure

DNA Biology and Technology: DNA/RNA Structure , Link will open in a new tab

In this simulation, you will examine DNA structure by labeling the components of a DNA molecule, labeling a DNA molecule undergoing DNA replication, and labeling a DNA molecule undergoing transcription to produce RNA.

Human Genetics: Genetic Inheritance

Human Genetics: Genetic Inheritance , Link will open in a new tab

In this simulation, you will learn how to read pedigrees and differentiate between autosomal and X-linked inheritance patterns.
