    R=Reference/Experiment   S=Sample Project
    Use an online bioinformatics database to find out which animals currently have genome projects, which projects are complete, and which projects are still in progress. R
    Find out how big the genomes of different organisms are and determine which organisms have the largest and smallest genomes. R

    R=Reference/Experiment   S=Sample Project
    Use the patterns of fur color in tortoiseshell cats to determine if X chromosomes are inactivated in a random or in an allele-dependent manner. R
    Using a Punnett square to help in acheiving the desired results when breeding Polish rabbits with specific color patterns. R
    Research genetics and genetic engineering R R S
    Determine if by crossing two totally different breeds of chicken, a Barred Plymouth Rock cock and a White Aracauna rumpless (no tail) female, the offspring would have the dominant traits of laying blue-green eggs, growing barred feathers, and developing a tail. R

    What is the Woolly Mammoth's Closest Living Relative? R
    Use DNA Sequencing to Trace the Blue Whale's Evolutionary Tree R
    Build a family tree for the primates, including Homo sapiens, based on the similarity of mitochondrial proteins by using the BLAST bioinformatics tool. R
    Identify T. Rex's closest living relative by using simple bioinformatics tools. R
    Use a computer program on the Web to compare a DNA sequence from several human genes with the corresponding genes in other animals. This will allow us to infer how closely related we are to those animals. R
    Compare a protein's amino acid sequence in a couple of animals to infer how closely related they are to one another. R
    A Screen for Mutants in Drosophila melanogaster Affecting Triglyceride Levels R
    Repeat Griffith's and Avery, MacLeod and McCarty's experiments - demonstrate that DNA is the “transforming factor” R
    Quantifying Genetic Similarity in Relation to Geographic Distance R R
