Chapter 5 principles of inheritance and variationmohan bio
- Mendelian genetics deals with the study of heredity and variation through experiments in pea plants by Gregor Mendel.
- Mendel discovered the laws of inheritance through experiments showing traits are inherited in dominant and recessive patterns.
- His work was later combined with the chromosomal theory of inheritance which showed genes are located on chromosomes and segregate during gamete formation according to Mendel's laws.
Chapter 6. Molecular basis of inheritance.mohan bio
Nucleic acids like DNA and RNA are the genetic material found in living cells. DNA carries genetic information from one generation to the next and is made up of deoxyribose, phosphate groups, and nitrogenous bases. DNA replication is semi-conservative and produces two identical DNA molecules, each with one old and one new strand. Transcription produces mRNA from a DNA template, and translation reads mRNA to produce proteins according to the central dogma of biology.
