1. What does it mean for an allele to be dominant? (i.e. How do you know that Mendel's yellow seeds were considered dominant?)
2. In humans, apparently, the presence of dimples is a dominant characteristic. If the inheritance pattern of dimples is like that of pea color (i.e. two forms, dimples and no-dimples, one dominant and one recessive), described by Mendel, could non-dimpled parents give birth to a dimpled child? If non-dimpled parents do give birth to dimpled children, what if anything does that tell you about how dimples are transmitted in reproduction?
3. Name at least three difficulties Mendel would have encountered in the design of his experiments had he chosen to study animal rather than plant hybrids. Would there have been any advantages to studying animals?

What genes (or kind of genes) will you focus on in your investigative research? Provide 2-3 reasons for your choice of these gene/s. Starting with the bone sample itself, what methods will you use to get DNA that you can sequence? Which “ingredients” in your lab reactions will determine which gene or genes are copied? How is it that these ingredients are able to target a specific gene? What method will you use to see if your efforts to copy...
