Help your students build real understanding of the human genome project through ninety questions that move from basic recognition to genuine reasoning about living systems.

Sample questions include "The term 'sequencing' in genetics refers to what process?", "What technology was primarily used for DNA sequencing in the Human Genome Project?", and "In which year did the Human Genome Project officially start?"

What's Inside?

• 30 True or False questions as a separate print ready PDF worksheet
