This site from Palomar College provides a good background on exactly what Mendel did. Vocabulary links throughout make this a very good introduction article for genetics.

Instructional module focusing on Gregor Mendel's Laws of Inheritance. Discussion includes Mendel's discovery of dominant and recessive traits as well as co-dominance and incomplete dominance in genetics. Site also includes an interactive...

This personal site gives the seven characteristics that Mendel observed and a fairly large background to what Mendel saw and interpreted.

Resource provides a discussion of Mendel's law of segregation with a focus on genotype, phenotype, alleles, heterozygous/homozygous, and 2 x 2 Punnett squares.

A comprehensive resource discussing the details of Gregor Mendel's research of genetics. Based on experiments he conducted he recognized that some genes are dominant over others. Find a variety of learning tools to enhance study.

A web-based course which allows students to explore the fields of genetics and genomics. The three course modules are transmission genetics, the nature of genetic material, and medical genetics and genomics. Use of this resource requires...

Explore how genes are passed from one generation to the next including Punnet squares. Kids learn about Gregor Mendel and his theories and experiments on inheritance and genetics.

Article defines Mendel's law of independent assortment, provides examples, and takes a look at how it is used to make predictions. Also, discusses dihybrid crosses and 4 x 4 Punnett squares.

Students learn about patterns of inheritance including genotype and phenotype, and then learn about the inheritance of autosomal dominant and recessive and sex-linked genetic disorders.

This interactive activity, adapted from the Dolan DNA Learning Center, illustrates how Gregor Mendel used purebred yellow and green peas to show that some genes are dominant and others are recessive.

Historical perspective on Mendel's contribution. Spends a little time setting up what the current beliefs of Mendel's day were and how he changed things with what he did.

This provides access to a webbook about How Humans Evolved. The following topics are covered: (1) How Evolution Works, (2) Primate Behavior and Ecology, (3) The History of Human Lineage, and (4) Evolution and Modern Humans. Each chapter...

A great supplement to help introduce Punnett Squares. It tells how to set them up and how to use them correctly. A sample quiz is offered and feedback is given to help with understanding why an answer is correct or not.
