Readings & Notes
Important Assignments

Objectives

1. Illustrate the cell cycle and the steps involved in cellular reproduction

2. Discuss the importance of sexual reproduction as it relates to evolution

3. Describe the historical context that is the basis for modern genetics (Gregor Mendel)

4. Demonstrate the use of probability in genetics

5. Compare and contrast various types of inheritance patterns (epistatic genes, linked genes, sex-linkage, lethals genes)

6. Use the Hardy-Weinberg equation to estimate allele frequencies in a population
