A quick recap….
There are several terms that need to be clarified so that you can more easily follow the exercise. A gene is a
piece of DNA that directs the expression of a particular characteristic (trait). Genes are located on
chromosomes, and the location where a particular gene is found is referred to as the locus (plural: loci) of that
gene. An allele is a gene for which there is an alternative expression, which can lead to the alterative form of a
trait. For example, a diploid organism carries the allele “A” on one homologous chromosome, and the allele “A”
on the other. The genotype of this organism is then AA and it is said to be homozygous. An organism may also
carry two different alleles. For example on one chromosome it could carry the allele “A” and on the other it
could carry the allele “a”. The genotype of such an organisms is then Aa, and it is described as heterozygous for
this chromosomal locus.
The genotype of an organism is the listing of the two alleles for each trait that it possesses. The phenotype of an
organism is a description of the way a trait is displayed in the structure, behavior, or physiology of the organism.
Some alleles are dominant to others and mask the presence of other alleles. The dominant condition is indicated
by uppercase letters (e.g., “A”). The alleles that are masked are called recessive alleles. The recessive condition
is indicated by lowercase letters (e.g., “a”). When both dominants are present in the genotype (AA), the organism
is said to be homozygous dominant for the trait, and the organisms will show the dominant phenotype (trait
expression A). When both recessives are present in the genotype (aa), the organism is said to be homozygous
recessive for the trait, and the organisms will show the recessive phenotype (trait expression a). In the case of
complete dominance, the dominant allele completely masks the recessive allele, and an organism with a
heterozygous genotype (Aa) will show the dominant phenotype (trait expression A).
Evolutionary Agents
Evolution is a process resulting in changes in gene frequencies (= the genetic make-up) of a population over
time. The mechanisms of evolution include selection (which can cause change over time & adaptation), and
forces that provide variation and cause change over time (but not adaptation). Factors that change gene
frequencies over time are referred to as evolutionary agents.
A powerful way to detect the presence of evolutionary agents is the use of the Hardy–Weinberg model. This
model can be applied to traits that are influenced by several loci; the simplest case is for a trait that is regulated
by one locus with two alleles.
With the Hardy–Weinberg model, the frequency of genotypes in the population can be predicted from the
probability of encounters between gametes bearing the different alleles. With alleles R .

This document provides an overview of population genetics and principles of evolution. It discusses how genetic variation is maintained in populations through mechanisms such as sexual reproduction, genetic drift, mutation and natural selection. A key concept is that evolution occurs through changes in allele frequencies in populations over generations. The document also covers Mendelian inheritance, Darwinian evolution, the Hardy-Weinberg principle of genetic equilibrium, and factors that can lead to deviations from equilibrium, driving microevolutionary changes within populations.
Gregor Mendel conducted experiments with pea plants between 1856-1863. Through his experiments, he discovered three laws of inheritance:
1) The Law of Segregation - alleles for a trait separate during gamete formation so each gamete carries one allele.
2) The Law of Independent Assortment - alleles for different traits assort independently during gamete formation.
3) The Law of Dominance - in a heterozygous individual, one allele (the dominant) is expressed while the other (recessive) has no effect on the phenotype.
Mendel's discoveries formed the foundation of classical/Mendelian genetics and provided evidence that traits are passed from parents to offspring
The document discusses a simulation of a population of bunnies in England, where some bunnies have a recessive allele that causes them to lack fur. Over generations, as the harsh winters cause the hairless bunnies to die off at higher rates, the frequency of the recessive allele decreases. The results demonstrate natural selection, as the recessive allele becomes less common as it confers a lower chance of survival in that environment.
Gregor Mendel conducted experiments with pea plants in the mid-1800s that established the foundations of genetics. Through his work, he discovered the laws of inheritance: dominance, segregation, and independent assortment. Mendel showed that traits are passed from parents to offspring through discrete units (now known as genes) that segregate and assort independently during reproduction. His work was the beginning of modern genetics and our understanding of heredity.

The document discusses Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, which states that allele and genotype frequencies in a population will remain constant from generation to generation in the absence of evolutionary influences. It provides examples of how evolutionary factors such as natural selection, genetic drift, and migration can disrupt Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium in a population over time. The two equations of Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium relate allele frequencies to genotype frequencies and allow prediction of changes if evolutionary pressures impact a population.
Plant Introductions & Evolution: Hybrid Speciation and Gene TransferUniversity of Adelaide
Professor Richard Abbott presents a seminar entitled "Gene transfer and plant evolution: What we have learnt from Senecio." Richard has been at St Andrews University since October 1971 and currently holds a Chair in Plant Evolution. He is also an Editor of New Phytologist, and Associate Editor of Molecular Ecology, and Plant Ecology & Diversity. Richard’s main research focus is on the evolutionary consequences of hybridization in plants using the genus Senecio (Asteraceae) as a system for study.
Population genetics reconciled Darwin and Mendel's ideas by showing how natural selection could act on variation present in populations. The Hardy-Weinberg theorem describes genetic equilibrium in a population where allele frequencies remain constant between generations unless disrupted by factors like genetic drift, migration, non-random mating, mutation, or natural selection. These disruptions to equilibrium allow for microevolution and populations to change over time through natural selection acting on genetic variation.
Genetics and its history with gregor mendel lawmanoj Joshi
Gregor Mendel conducted experiments with pea plants in the mid-1800s that laid the foundations of genetics. Through his experiments, he discovered three principles: 1) the law of segregation, which states that alleles separate during gamete formation, 2) the law of independent assortment, which demonstrates that traits carried on different chromosomes assort independently, and 3) the law of dominance, where one allele is dominant and masks the presence of the recessive allele. Mendel's work was largely ignored until the early 1900s but provided the basic concepts still used in genetics today.
This document provides an overview of basic Mendelian genetics and inheritance patterns. It discusses how Gregor Mendel conducted experiments with pea plants in the 1800s to discover the laws of inheritance. Through his work, he demonstrated that traits are passed from parents to offspring through discrete units called genes. The document also explains how monohybrid and dihybrid crosses can be used to predict inheritance patterns based on Mendel's laws of segregation and independent assortment. It uses the example of cystic fibrosis inheritance in humans to illustrate how recessive traits are expressed.
PowerPoint presentation that highlights chapters 13 and 14 in Campbell's Essential Biology (3rd. edition). It can also be used for Miller & Levine's Biology (2006 Ed.) for chapters 15-18.
The document discusses several of Gregor Mendel's discoveries and laws of genetics from his experiments with pea plants including:
1) Mendel's law of segregation which states that alleles for a gene separate into gametes during reproduction.
2) His law of independent assortment which states that different genes assort independently if located on separate chromosomes.
3) That dominant alleles are fully expressed in heterozygotes while recessive alleles have no visible effect.
Gregor Mendel conducted experiments with pea plants between 1856-1863. Through his experiments, he discovered two fundamental laws of inheritance: the Law of Segregation and the Law of Independent Assortment. The Law of Segregation states that alleles segregate and are passed to gametes independently. The Law of Independent Assortment states that different genes assort independently during gamete formation. Mendel's work laid the foundation for modern genetics although it was not widely recognized until the early 20th century.
1. Gregor Mendel was an Austrian monk who is considered the father of genetics. He studied inheritance of traits in pea plants between 1856-1863 and developed the laws of inheritance.
2. Mendel found that when he cross-bred pea plants with different traits, such as seed shape or color, the offspring retained traits from both parents. Through his experiments with over 28,000 pea plants, he developed the laws of inheritance.
3. Mendel's work established the foundations of classical genetics, including the laws of segregation and independent assortment. His work was not widely recognized until the early 20th century but he is now recognized as the founder of the modern science of genetics
This document discusses genetics and evolution. It provides background on heredity, variation, Mendel's experiments with pea plants, and his laws of inheritance. It describes how traits are passed from parents to offspring through genes, alleles, dominance, and segregation. It discusses evidence for evolution, including homologous and vestigial structures, as well as theories like natural selection and genetic drift. The document also covers modern concepts like DNA, chromosomes, mutation, and molecular evidence supporting common descent.
1) A science project explores advanced concepts in Mendelian genetics through genetically engineered carnivorous "plantfairies" and their dangerous mutant offspring, "plantmonsters".
2) Students perform dihybrid crosses to identify genotypes of plantfairies and determine which may carry alleles for the plantmonster mutation.
3) The results of the crosses help researchers decide which plantfairies can be safely kept and which may need to be destroyed to prevent the spread of the dangerous mutation.

Gregor Mendel was an Austrian monk in the 19th century who studied inheritance of traits in pea plants. He discovered that traits are passed from parents to offspring through discrete units called genes. Through experiments involving self-pollination and cross-pollination of pea plants with different traits like seed color, Mendel identified that some genes are dominant and others recessive. He developed ratios and diagrams like Punnett squares to predict the expression of traits in offspring.
Gregor Mendel conducted experiments with pea plants between 1856-1863. He cultivated and tested over 28,000 pea plants, studying seven different traits including seed shape, seed color, pod shape, pod color, flower position and plant height. Through his experiments and subsequent generations of crosses, he discovered that traits are passed to offspring through discrete factors, now known as genes, following predictable patterns. He developed the laws of inheritance and particulate theory of inheritance, laying the foundations for modern genetics.

This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

proceeds, embryonic forms diverge and become more similar to adults of
their own species (von Baer’s law)

11. The Paradox of Variation:
Evolution requires natural selection, but
natural selection eliminates variation.
