Inheritance
infoWhy this? We study inheritance because it explains how genes are passed from parents to offspring and how different combinations of alleles produce patterns of characteristics, which is essential for understanding genetic crosses, predicting phenotypes, genetic disorders and the genetic basis of evolution.
scheduleWhy now? We study inheritance now because, after covering DNA, protein synthesis, mutations, meiosis and genetic diversity, you are ready to apply these ideas to solve problems using genetic diagrams, probabilities and real-life examples of inherited traits and diseases.
