For this assessment, you will create a presentation, that you could show your classmates.

In the presentation you will:

1. In your own words, describe chromosomes, genes, and DNA.
2. Recall that traits are observable characteristics of an individual. Some examples given in this lesson were tongue rolling, earlobe shape, and the presence or absence of a widow’s peak.
3. Explain why individuals in a population have different observable traits. Use your observation skills to find two examples of traits that you have inherited. These traits must be different from the ones that are discussed in the lesson.

You may create the presentation in any of the following formats:
Slide Presentation
Brochure or Flyer (created using a publishing program or in a word document)
If you have another format you would like to use, please check with your instructor.
Please review the grading rubric before you begin.
