DESCRIPTION

This test is a great way to see if your students know a lot about a wide variety of Biology-related concepts. This test was specifically made for the Bio-Process Lab Devision B Event for a Middle School Science Olympiad Competition, but can be used in any middle-school classroom setting. The test is in stations, in which students are timed and have to move from station to station.

Station  5  Introduction: In Drosophila melanogaster (the wonderful fruit fly you generally find hanging around the farmers' markets) normal wings (W) are dominant over vestigial wings (w); gray body color (G) is dominant over ebony color (g); normal antennae (A) is dominant over antennapedia (a) and the sex-linked trait of red eyes, called the wild type, (R) is dominant over white eyes (r).

Activity: 1. Bugsy, a male fruit fly, who is homozygous dominant for body color marries Daisy, a

female fruit fly, who is homozygous recessive for body color.

A. Write the genotypes of Bugsy and Daisy for body color. Bugsy and Daisy will be the P generation. ____________________________________________________________

B. What are the two alleles that Bugsy can donate for body color? ____________________________________________________________

What are the two alleles that Daisy can donate for body color? ____________________________________________________________

C. Draw a Punnett square and show the possible genotype(s) of the F1 generation produced by Bugsy and Daisy.

D. What is the percentage of genotype(s) found in the F1 generation? ____________________________________________________________

E. What are the alleles for body color that can be donated by any member of the F1 generation? ____________________________________________________________

Page 6: Biology Process Skills Test

F. Now cross two individuals from the F1 generation (a monohybrid cross). Show this cross. The offspring from this cross is the F2 generation!

G. What are the genotypic ratios for body color in the F2 generation? ____________________________________________________________

H. What are the phenotypic ratios for body color in the F2 generation? ____________________________________________________________

2. Now let us carry this one step further and work with two traits. Dino, who is a good friend of Bugsy, is homozygous recessive for body color and homozygous dominant for antennae. He meets, falls in love and marries Daisy's sister Lulu. (Yes, true love can happen in fruit flies!) Lulu is homozygous dominant for body color and homozygous recessive for antennae.

I. What are the genotypes of the P generation (Dino and Lulu)? Be sure to include both traits! ____________________________________________________________

J. Draw the Punnett square and show the cross between Dino and Lulu. (Remember that their offspring will be the F1 generation.)

K. What are the percentages of the genotype(s) found in the F1 generation? ____________________________________________________________

L. List the 4 possible allelic gamete combinations that could be produced by two members of the F1 generation.

M. Now cross two individuals from this F1 generation. Show the cross in a Punnett square.

   Station  9  

31. How  many  calories  from  fat  are  there  in  2  servings?    

32. From  carbohydrates?  33. From  proteins?  

 

1. Sodium Serving size shows how many servings are in the

container and how large your serving size should be to get the nutrient and calorie amounts listed. If you double your serving size, double the nutrients and calories you are eating. If you eat half a serving, cut the nutrients and calories in half.

2. Calories shows the number of calories you are eating if you eat the listed serving size.

3. Total fat is the combined amount of fats in a serving. Try to get your daily calories from products that contain little amounts of fat.

4. Saturated fat is one type of fat, and is part of the total fat listed that may cause heart disease. It is not a healthy type of fat. Eat foods that have little or no saturated fat.

5. Trans fat is an unhealthy fat that raises LDL (bad) cholesterol. Many processed foods, margarines, and snack foods contain large amounts of trans fat.

6. Cholesterol is found naturally in animal based foods like eggs, dairy products, meat, poultry, and shellfish. Limit how much cholesterol you eat to no more than 200 mg daily.

7. Sodium is a mineral that helps keep liquid in your body. Look for the sodium content as a percent of daily value. Choose foods that are less than 5% daily value of sodium.
