6 White’s Scientists Extracts Strawberry DNA

Mrs Jones

Our first science lesson was to learn about inheritance. We discussed the definitions of the words inheritance, characteristics and variation. We have learnt that inheritance refers to the genes that are passed on from parents and off spring. When we refer to inherited characteristics we tend to focus on physical characteristics as these are easy to spot.

What characteristics have you inherited from your parents?

What is the difference between acquired and inherited?

In what part of the cell would you find DNA?
