Introduction to Heredity

Young scientists generally love to learn how certain traits can be explained by a direct combination of alleles from their parents. Here, they are able to examine how a phenotype is often expressed as a result of one allele being recessive and one being dominant. This video is very logical and clearly tackles the whole concept, including details about Punnett Squares and probability.
