    Study Notes

    Tetrad Analysis

    • Main focus: studying the segregation of genes during meiosis

    Genetic Recombination

    • Significance: allows for the shuffling of genetic material, increasing genetic diversity and making it possible to map genes relative to each other

    Applications

    • Common application: used to map genes and determine the order of genes on a chromosome

    Understanding Genetic Diversity

    • Contribution: helps to understand the creation of new genetic combinations and the inheritance of traits, allowing for a deeper understanding of genetic diversity and evolution
