Genetics: Chromosome Inheritance

This lecture covers the basics of genetics, including the process of meiosis, chromosome replication, and genetic diversity. It explains how alleles are inherited, the relationship between genotype and phenotype, and the impact of environmental factors on gene expression. The lecture also delves into concepts such as dominance, codominance, incomplete dominance, and epistasis. Furthermore, it explores genetic mapping, dosage compensation mechanisms, and the consequences of genetic mutations. The discussion extends to genetic traits transmission analysis, polygenic inheritance, and chromosomal sex determination. The lecture concludes with insights into population genetics, including the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, modes of genetic inheritance, and the effects of epigenetics on gene expression.
