so as a bio major I'm required to participate in scientific popularization projects, and one of them involves teaching genetics to a bunch of high school brats. does anyone know anything practical I can do in a school besides some crappy strawberry DNA extraction?
I thought about a chromosome preparation but the protocols I know require a centrifuge.

>Pair the boys and girls together (this is horny teens were dealing with)
>have them each write down on a strip of paper (colored for gender) some tgca in random order. make sure only they know it.
> gather strips
>select three and put a red D on each. (representing a terrible genetic disease)
>Now mix it in a bowl and have the students take turns picking from the bowl without looking
>get all girls to show their genes. get their partners to show their genes.
>bring up the ones with the disease.
>whisper to them that its disease, ask them to spread it to as many as possible.
>have students get new strips and write down their sequence on each
>have them add the paired sequence from other students
> collect all who have the disease sequences
>tell them they have a rare disease, called horny-teen-syndrome
>proceed to have orgy

The last two you can ignore if you want. but try the rest however you want, it will be entertaining

that sounds fun anon but I'm confused
how are the people with the disease supposed to spread it

Start with simplified fruit flies or peas squares.

Identify physical traits of them and use the squares to determine the genetic traits.

At the end, show a sequenced genome and relate it to the squares.

You could also talk about genetic mutations and how they are researched.

Pretend you're the kaku of biology and make edgy confusing inaccurate metaphors.

Teach them on how whites are genetically superior to niggers. Redpill them with science

That moment when a black student in the class understands everything OP has to teach about genetics more than the white kids.

How much sample are you working with? What budget do you have? Bench-top micro centrifuges can be pretty cheap.

I got only material I can borrow from a few labs. if you are talking about a small centrifuge for pcr tubes then I might be able to get one. but I'm skeptical they reach high enough rpm

kek this. Flavour with some Lamarck too.

I actually had to send back a rather scathing remark on a paper I was peer reviewing a few months ago because the authors made a few comments about genetics which were entirely Lamarckian. I was staggared.
