Basic principles of heredity are studied, including Mendelian and modified inheritance patterns, sex determination mechanisms, linkage analysis with genetic mapping, Chi-square analysis of data, modern molecular genetics, and population genetics with regard to evolution of species and conservation. Molecular structure and processes related to the regulation of genetic material are also emphasized.

Prerequisite(s): One university biology course and MATH 102 (both with a minimum grade of C); Concurrent with BIO 242 .
