Biology Warm-up (2-23-10): QUESTION: What the difference between dominant and recessive genes? ANSWER: Dominant is always expressed when present. Recessive is only expressed when no dominant genes are present.

Today’s Objectives: Students will be able to… Set-up and use a Punnett Square to predict traits in offspring Compare dominant and recessive genes and traits and observe them in humans.
