Abstract

In the Mendelian Inheritance simulation, you will learn the basic principles of Mendelian inheritance. You will see how two of Mendel’s postulates can be applied to determine how characteristics are passed from one generation to the next. You will also learn what inheritance looks like at the molecular level. Will you be able to find out why some people inherit color blindness but others don’t?
