(TD) Teacher demonstration

Gregor Johann Mendel was a scientist who is recognized as the Father and Founder of genetics was born in in 1822. Mendel conducted many experiments on the pea plant. He had chosen pea plant because The pea plants were easy to grow and it breeds in short time.

Peas are naturally self-pollinating but can also be cross-pollinated. He studies some characteristics:

Grammar: Adjective complement

An adjective complement is defined as a functional part of a sentence that completes the meaning of, or complements, an adjective or adjective phrase.

A noun clause is simply two or more words that function as a noun. It should have a subject and a verb, and, since it takes the place of a noun, it’s a dependent clause and cannot stand alone. A noun clause starts with the words “that," “how,” “if,” and the wh- words “what,” “when,” “why,” "who," and "where."

A prepositional phrase starts with a preposition — such as “with,” “about,” “on,” or “in” — and is followed by a noun, pronoun, noun phrase, pronoun phrase, or noun clause.

We were shocked by the news. (prepositional phrase)

I am curious what color you picked. (noun clause)

P 8 – 9 read the text and make up some questions:

Suggested questions:

1. Why J Mendel was recognized as a the Father of genetics?

2. Why Mendel had chosen pea plant?

3. Is the theory applicable for animals?

Look at these table. Describe the meaning of the Mendel’s theory.

Look at the pictures. Describe these pictures applying Mendel’s theory.

Fill the gaps:

Characters dwarf dominant recessive generation

The results of Mendel’s experiments on crossing a pure tall pea plant with a pure short pea plant:

In the first generation, Mendel observed that all plants were tall. there were no dwarf plants.

In the second _____, Mendel observed that 3 of the offsprings were tall whereas 1 was _____.

Similar results were found when Mendel studied other ______.

Mendel observed that in the first generation, the characters of only one parent appeared whereas, in the second generation, the characters of the other parent also appeared.

The characters that appear in the first generation are called _______ traits and those that appear for the first time in the second generation are called ______ traits.

(answers: generation dwarf characters dominant recessive )

Descriptor:
