(1-4) 1 Paragraph describing both
breeds. No specific description of
traits and no reference to
dominant/ recessive alleles.
(2) Parent genotypes do not match
phenotype or are missing. Boxes
do not correlate with all parent
alleles. Phenotype of child is
present but flawed.
(1-5) Pedigree symbols are
inaccurate or missing. Does not
include multiple offspring from
each pair.
(1-4) Selection of male and female
offspring for next generation may
cause inbreeding. Placement of
genotypes are mixed in Punnett
squares or Punnett Square is
inaccurate for each generation of
offspring. Symbols are added to
pedigree.
(1-2) Image does not clearly show
desired traits and the picture is not
neat and detailed. No color.
(1-2) Pedigree chart does not
clearly show link between first
and final generation, or is
unorganized so it is difficult to
show. Does not include proper
Mastery
(5-7) 2 Paragraphs one for each
starting dog breed. Description of
at traits, but not specific about
dominant or recessive. Paragraphs
are detailed but facts do not flow
from one to the next.
(4) Parent genotypes are present
but do not reflect phenotype.
Boxes represent proper ratios but
correlation with parent alleles is
skewed. Phenotype of child is
partially correct.
(6-9) Parent generation symbols
match with parents phenotype OR
1st generation offspring symbols
match genotype.
(5-7) Selection of male and female
offspring for next generation do
not cause inbreeding. Placement
of genotypes are mixed in Punnett
squares and Punnett Square is
accurate for each generation of
offspring. Symbols are added to
pedigree.
(3-4) Image shows determined
traits. Drawn neatly but with little
color.
(3-4) Pedigree chart shows a flow
from final generation up to
original parent generation but no
extended lines. It is organized and
symbols are clear but does not
(8-10) 2 Paragraphs one for each
starting dog breed. Description of
at least three desired traits and
whether they are dominant or
recessive. Paragraphs flow and are
detailed.
(10) Parent genotypes are present
and match phenotype. Punnett
Squares are accurate for parent
genotypes proper ratio of
offspring. Proper phenotype is
determined for litter.
(10) Parent generation symbols
match with each parents
phenotype. 1st generation offspring
symbols match genotype.
(8-10) Selection of male and
female offspring for next
generation do not cause
inbreeding. Genotypes are
correctly placed in Punnett squares
and it is accurate for each
generation of offspring. Correct
symbols are added to pedigree.
(5) Image clearly represents
determined traits from original
parents. Drawn neatly and fully
colored.
(5) Pedigree chart shows clear link
from final generation up to
original parent generation, along
with extended lines. It is organized
and symbols are clear. Includes a
