If AA and aa individuals (homozygotes) show different forms of some trait (phenotypes), and Aa individuals (heterozygotes) show the same phenotype as AA individuals, then allele A is said to dominate or be dominant to or show dominance to allele a, and a is said to be recessive to A.ominance is a key concept in Mendelian inheritance and classical genetics. Often the dominant allele codes for a functional protein whereas the recessive allele does not. A classic example of dominance is the inheritance of seed shape, for example a pea shape in peas.
Depending on the experience of the students, the teacher may choose to point out appropriate points in the story for the students to respond in these reader response roles or he can leave the choice to the students. After students have completed their journal entries, they will pair up to discuss their responses.
Sample Journal Entry #1: This sample is not intended to be a positive example, but to demonstrate the general format and nature of a journal entry. Note: This entry is based on a first journal entry by a candidate who has not yet mastered the format or content necessary for a successful Field Journal entry.
