Genetics assignment 3

Today we'll be finishing/improving the old assignments we were looking at lat lesson in w12, or making notes for the next section of the course:

We will be completing the next assignment on genetic crosses, similar to what we started looking at in class before the last assignment. Try and find information about the following points to help you prepare for the next unit -

• What are monohybrid and dihybrid crosses? What ratios can you expect for these?
• Explain the difference between phenotype and genotype, giving examples where relevant.
• Who was Mendel? What did he contribute to genetics?
• Explain the process of electrophoresis, what is it can be used for and why it works so well.
