Four Corners Game - How to Play
Team A vs. Team B
One team stands - 15 seconds to choose A, B, C, D.
Each member standing in the right corner = 1 point
Don’t know the answer? Break up the team (ex.
could be A or B? split up!)
10 seconds to return to seat or it is minus 1 point
per person standing - PENALTY FLAG!
Winning team = PRIZE :)

B.
C.
D.

What do chromosomes do in mitosis, but not
meiosis?
A.
B.
C.
D.
Each chromosome makes a copy

Gg and Gg
Gg and gg
Which of the following statements
about this Punnett Square are true?
A. Each offspring has a 75% probability of
showing the dominant trait
B. Each offspring has a 25% probability of
showing the dominant trait
C. Each offspring has an equal probability
of showing either trait
D. Each offspring is more likely in inherit
gg than any other combination of
alleles
How is meiosis related to sexual reproduction?
A.
B.
C.
D.
Meiosis allows the offspring produced to grow
and develop
Meiosis joins together the sex cells during
reproduction to produce new offspring
Meiosis produces the sex cells that join the
form new offspring during sexual reproduction
Meiosis produces the body cells that join the
form new offspring during sexual reproduction

about a type of cell division?
A.
B.
C.
D.
Mitosis involves one cell division that produces
4 cells
Mitosis involves one cell division that produces
1 new cell
Meiosis involves 2 cell divisions that produces 4
new cells
Meiosis involves 1 cell division that produces 4
new cells

fur (bb) has white fur. Which statement about the
two alleles are true?
A. They are two different genes
B. They result in the same phenotype
C. They are two different versions of the same gene
D. They provide identical instructions about different
traits
A person’s blood group is an inherited trait. In
blood groups, there is one allele, represented by

blood type AB demonstrate?
A. Dominance
B. Codominance
C. Recessiveness
D. Incomplete dominance
