Statement |
What’s true |
What’s wrong |
Examples |
This plant carries its offspring on the leaf. From this, new plants will arise, which are going to look exactly the same. |
|||
Not exactly the same. They will look a little bit like the father plant and a little bit like the mother plant. |
|||
If you don’t water the plant enough, the offspring is going to look different. |
In this task, the students were enabled to analyze, discuss and thereby enhance their collected knowledge regarding the process of inheritance. Because of the discussion new questions arise which can be examined afterwards. These questions can be discussed with the whole class, too.

This plant carries its offspring on the leaf. From this, new plants will arise, which are going to look exactly the same. |
Because of the genetic features the daughter plant look like the mother plant. |
They have to grow first. Inappropriate environmental conditions let the plants look different. |
Less water: stunted growth, dry leaves Too much sun: red coloring of the leaves |
Not exactly the same. They will look a little bit like the father plant and a little bit like the mother plant |
In this case, |
In this case, there is no father plant. |
|
If you don’t water the plant enough, the offspring is going to look different. |
See above | If you don’t water the mother plant, it develops similar features caused by the lack of water. |
Other points on a similar topic may also be discussed. The task should stimulate an exchange of ideas and a discussion. This can also be continued with other questions.
