Y are you a boy?

To review yesterday's lesson, here's a video by Mr. Anderson, a really great high school teacher (this gives you bragging rights, "I'm doing high school level science...") Younger students may skip, if they wish: 10 minutes



Subject of the homework:
How chromosomes determine gender (the Y makes the guy)
Why men get some genetic disorders more often
What is a pedigree? (no, it's not a foot massage)

Read the rest of ch.3, section 3: pages 73-74 and answer the review questions on page 75.
