Biotechnology, Biology: Principles of Inheritance

In this course, students will imbibe knowledge about Principles of Inheritance and would be able to solve the questions based on different crosses (discussed below).

This course is designed by keeping in mind the difficulty level in understanding the various concepts by students. The course commences with basic topics like difference between homologous and non-homologous chromosomes, chromatids, sister and non-sister chromatids, Gene and Factors, DNA, Nucleosomes, solenoid structure, human chromosomal makeup, concept of Alleles, Genotype and Phenotype, Genotypic ratio and Phenotypic ratio, Dominant and Recessive, Monohybrid and Dihybrid cross, Punnet Square, F1, F2 generation etc to advanced concepts like Mendelian genetics, deviation from Mendel's Inheritance laws, brief discussion on Morgan experiment, chromosomal theory of inheritance, detailed explanation with examples on- 3 laws of inheritance, Incomplete dominance, Codominance, Polygenic Inheritance, Multiple Alleles, Pleiotropy, Epigenetics, Test cross and Back cross, and finally how to solve questions based on these crosses etc.

After completing this course you will be able to apply these concepts practically for understanding the inheritance pattern in future generations. Also, you will find the reality that twins are not 100% identical, Why?,... Also why in siblings one grows taller in height while other one remains short? or Why there are so many varieties of skin tone color present in entire world population? or why a mutation in one particular functional gene alters the function at some other part of body?...... you need to finish this course for all the answers.

Not only this, You are getting one bonus quiz too at the end of completing this course. Finishing this bonus video will give you full understanding of, how you can find the genotype of any unknown parent/individual/may be yours too,by just looking at the ratios of offspring and other interesting information.

So, join and enroll for this course today and get most out of it.
