10 Regents-Style Questions on Inheritance, Mutations, and Protein Synthesis
This NYS Living Environment Regents Review quiz provides targeted practice on genetics using authentic Regents-style multiple-choice questions. The quiz is delivered through Google Forms for easy assignment, automatic grading, and efficient data collection.
The assessment includes 10 questions drawn from past New York State Living Environment Regents exams. Questions address inheritance patterns, homologous chromosomes, mutations, DNA structure, protein synthesis, and the relationship between genes and traits. The format mirrors the structure and language of the Regents exam to support accurate preparation.
To support meaningful review, both the question order and answer choices are randomized with each attempt. This allows students to retake the quiz for additional practice while ensuring that improved scores reflect improved understanding rather than memorization.
The Google Form integrates smoothly with Google Classroom. Teachers can sync grades automatically and, if desired, delete a student’s submission to allow for retakes.
This quiz works well as:
a formative check during a genetics unit
a Regents review warm-up or homework assignment
targeted practice before cumulative review
a quick assessment to identify areas for reteaching
