Remember that assignments are due by 5:00pm on Friday. Watch out for the following this week:
1. Some of you are still not reading directions and/or reading the questions carefully. You won't get full credit if genotypes are written incorrectly, or turning in incomplete work. Use the notes & cheat sheet wisely. Same goes with not watching 100% of the videos (90% doesn't count).
2. Showing work on Punnet squares is required for receiving any credit.
3. Technical stuff when submitting work:
* Please try to submit your work as 1 scanned document, rather than separate ones. I know some of you have tech limitations, so try your best.
* Here's an example of making notations in superscripts even when you can't: X^aY. See attachment or link below.
