Lab-Aids: Molecules of Metabolism - Understanding Digestion and Respiration (Station Approach) Expand-A-Kit

Lab-Aids: Sickle Cell Concepts Kit Using GAM-ETO-DISCS‚® to simulate the genetic transmission of sickle cell anemia, students gain a clearer understanding of the disease. Student worksheets clearly explain both the effects of the disease and facts about treatment. This Lab-Aid helps clarify several aspects of sickle cell anemia. All material in this activity for 30 students is reusable.   Scientific Concepts: Understand the probability factor in the inheritance of this disease Demonstrate through simulation the transmission of sickle cell anemia Content List: 1 Teacher's Guide 30 Student Worksheets and Guides 30 Shakers 60 Normal hemoglobin (HH) GAM-ETO-DISCS‚® 60 Sickle cell anemia (hh) GAM-ETO-DISCS‚® 60 Sickle trait (Hh) GAM-ETO-DISCS‚® Classroom Planning: To complete this kit requires one ~50-minute class period Number of students: 30
