Genetic Continuity · Genetics & Heredity

Mendelian and Molecular Genetics

Applying Punnett squares to predict inheritance patterns and understanding DNA structure.

Key Questions

  1. 1To what extent can we predict the traits of offspring based on parental genotypes?
  2. 2How do non-Mendelian patterns like codominance and polygenic inheritance complicate our view of heredity?
  3. 3How does the structure of DNA allow it to store and replicate vast amounts of biological information?
