Description | ||
| The study of genetics/inherited traits is more than simply tracing back or predicting eye and hair color. Our genetic code is specific from one person to another. We do pass on other, more "unusual" traits, such as the ability to discern specific tastes in foods. PURPOSE: This activity was designed to involve students, family members, and selected peers in the process of determining whether an individual can be classified as a "taster" or a "non-taster." | ||
