=The Assignment=

Goals:
===There has been an earthquake at a local bay area hospital. Nurse Ratchet, only on her second day on the job, was assigned to care for the babies in the nursery. In her haste to evacuate the hospital, Nurse Ratchet neglected to put identification bracelets on the newborn babies. Your job is to utilize your knowledge of genetics and heredity in order to the deliver the babies to their correct parents. To solve the mystery, you must analyze various genetic traits in order to match babies to their parents. You will need a solid understanding of Punnett squares, blood types, dominant, recessive, and codominant genes in order to solve the case. If you get stuck, go back to the tutorials. There are three different scenarios and levels of difficulty. If you solve the first level, challenge yourself to solve a more difficult case. Good Luck! ===
