Lesson Plan
GRADE 9 SCIENCE
HEREDITY: INHERITANCE AND VARIATION
DNA Structure
I. Objectives
At the end of the class discussion, the Grade 9 learners must have:
Defined Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA)
Described the composition and structure of DNA
Manipulated the nucleotides (basic building blocks) of DNA
II. Learning Content
A. Subject Matter
Heredity:Inheritance and Variation - DNA Structure
B. Content Outline
Review what is Codominance
Define Multiple alleles
Give example of Multiple alleles
Identify the unknown phenotype of individuals on the basis of the known phenotypes through a punnet square.
Crossing all possible gene pairs of a specific blood type
C. Science Concept
Codominance occur when both alleles are expressed equally in the phenotype of the heterozygote. Neither of the allele
is dominant over the other
Multiple alleles is when more than two alleles control the inheritance of a character.
The ABO Blood Type System is governed by Multiple alleles. It is controlled by 3 alleles, the A, B and O alleles.
A mother who is blood type A and a child who is blood type A can have a father who is blood type A, B, AB or O. A
mother who is blood type B and a child who is blood type AB can have a father who is blood type A or AB only. A
mother who is blood type AB and a child who is blood type B can have a father who is blood type A, B, AB or O. A
mother who is blood type O and a child who is blood type O can have a father who is blood type A, B or O only.
O is a recessive allele, two O alleles must be present for a person to have type O blood. If A allele or B allele is paired
with O allele, the resulting blood type is A or B. A and B are codominant. If a person receives an A allele and a B
allele, their blood type is type AB.
