• Representation of the cell and its processes in high school students: An integrated view (2003, background): “…ideas like ‘alleles contain genes’ and ‘cells do not breath’ that have very different causality sources (Pashley 1994); that ‘different cell processes are due to unlike genetic information among cells’ (Lewis et al. 2000) and that ‘photosynthesis is respiration in plants’ (Wood-Robinson 1991).”
• Traits, genes, particles and information: re‐visiting students’ understandings of genetics (2004, background): “Again, no clear distinction was made between the terms gene, chromosome and genetic information, which were often used interchangeably (Lewis et al. 2000c).”
