Frequently asked questions
The three main types of genetics are classical genetics (focused on heredity and Mendel’s laws), molecular genetics (studying the structure and function of genes at a molecular level), and population genetics (examining genetic variation in populations).
Genetics is the study of genes, heredity, and the variation of traits in living organisms passed from one generation to another.
Genetics is best defined as the scientific field that explores how genetic information influences traits, development, and the functioning of organisms.
Genetic refers to anything related to genes or heredity, describing the traits or characteristics inherited from parents through DNA.
Genetics is the study of how genes function, how traits are passed down, and how variations occur within species and populations.
DNA is made of molecules called nucleotides, each consisting of a sugar (deoxyribose), a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base (adenine, thymine, cytosine, or guanine). These nucleotides form the double helix structure. Let me know if you'd like to dive deeper!
