do you understand genetics?

Question

what is it all about

Answer 1

Yes, if your parents don't have any children there is a very good chance you wont either.

Answer 2

I have a mild understanding of Genetics; I took it last spring and found it pretty difficult, perhaps because I wasn't approaching the course in the right way. It's really interesting though.

One of the big pictures I got from the course is that the previously separate and distinct sciences (biology, chemistry, physics) and the various subdisciplines of these sciences (especially those of biology and chemistry) are getting closer to becoming one big scientific understanding.

Answer 3

that is something that i stumble on the two facets are accountable of. that is in basic terms that persons are entrenched of their comments and hence the comments or perspectives of the opposing facets are perceived in simplistic and as caricatures. i do no longer think of that is an attempt to misinform, yet is in basic terms human beings arguing approximately issues they're blind to. Examples from the two facets that i've got seen on R&S: - there is honestly no evidence for evolution (besides the shown fact that genuine to a pair quantity, i.e. that there's no singular piece of evidence that proves it, there's a extensive physique of helping evidence) - faith is the reason in the back of all wars/greater wars than the rest/greater suffering than the rest. - faith prevents scientific discovery - Islam is a violent faith - Medieval Christians have been ignorant illiterate people who believed the worldwide became flat - concept X disproves evolution... and so on and so on and so on. It gets extremely uninteresting after a whilst, by way of fact that is obtrusive that maximum individuals make claims and counter-claims with out any theory or learn and are in basic terms parrotting in many circumstances-held yet misguided homilies.

Answer 4

Genetics is defined as the study of genes at all levels, including the ways in which they act in the cell and the ways in which they are transmitted from parents to offspring...

Answer 5

I do. It means all your ancestors are laying around in your particular gene pool. You could be a throw-back to a great-great-grandparent or look like a mix of mom and dad. In any event,genetic uniqueness occures at conception,so I don't recognize any supposed distinction between in vitro or ex vitro infanticide.

Answer 6

I have never understood the actual meaning of genetics.

Answer 7

Sure do. Have you read the latest? Two descendants of current mankind coexisted in Africa, many moons ago. One tended to be a little more on the vegetarian side but both are related. Of course they are related, God made us all. Scientists had theorized they were completely different branches of man but they are not.

Answer 8

Genetics is the geno or pheno type of offspring according to it's parents lines of DNA during ( you know ).

Answer 9

No! I hated that part of biology, trying to figure out what kind of eyes and hair the kids would have if mixed with certain genes...ugh! Too much brain work for me!

Answer 10

I understand it enough to know I could never explain it to you within the confines of Answers.

You should get a book...

Reading is good for the brain.
