In this genetic trait research activity, students will have fun discovering who makes a face when they taste PTC-treated strips. PTC (phenylthiocarbamide) is a chemical that has been widely used to detect genetic variation in tasting ability. Students will conduct the taste test experiment, gather data, use the Punnett square, graph the class findings, and design a simple research project to find correlations between tasters and non-tasters, and taste preferences or other genetic traits.

This online course allows students to review some chemistry notions : atoms, elements, the periodic table, chemical bonding, chemical reactions, Stoichiometry, mole, states of matter, thermochemistry, solutions, acids, bases, reaction rates and equilibrium and nuclear chemistry. The concepts are presented in the form of videos and small review exercises with immediate feedback. Some hands-on activities and a final challenge completes the course.

Dans ce Genially, les élèves sont des agents infiltrés dans un site top secret et doivent désamorcer une bombe qui menace de faire exploser la planète dans 45 minutes. Les élèves révisent des notions de science en fouillant différentes salles virtuelles et en réalisant des exercices. Certains indices inutiles apportent un élément de difficulté supplémentaire. Les élèves peuvent jouer en équipe afin de gagner du temps. [Source : S'CAPE]
