Our inheritance: common ground for the mathematics and biology teacher
This booklet is unusual in this series as it develops one theme, genetic inheritance , to show the use of mathematical ideas and terminology in science and serves as good preparation material for CPD work between departments.
The areas covered are: the inheritance of a single character, the inheritance of two characters, the genetics of multiple alleles, sex linked inheritance and population genetics.
The mathematical areas covered are classification of information using set notation, tree diagrams and probability.
This resource is from the Co-operation between Science Teachers and Mathematics Teachers series produced by the ISCU Committee on the Teaching of Science.
