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
