Summary Introduction
To review:
The given blank space in the statement, “____are segments of DNA that code for a specific protein, and the human______ includes over 20,000 of these segments”.
Introduction:
The entire genetic material contained within the organism’s cells is known as its ‘genome’. Heredity is the process of the transmission of genetic characteristics from the parent to children by means of genetic material (

To study the genetic makeup of an unborn child ____________ is the procedure to obtain amnio fluids.
______________________________________________________________ 1. People who carry a theoretical genetic disorder (called B-disease) can be identified from a 2kb DNA sequence. People who carry this genetic disorder have a single nucleotide polymorphism that results in a change of GTATCC to GGATCC, a site that only occurs once at nucleotide number 750 in this DNA sequence. Answer the following questions based on the information provided. (a) How can you develop a simple molecular test with enzyme BamH to identify the genetic disorder? (
(b) If you have carried out the molecular test (based on the information above) on a 100 individual and found that 24 were healthy (BB) and 26 were carriers (bb); 1) What is the ratio of heterozygous?
2) Show how can you identify the three types from the agarose gel
Most autosomal recessive genetic disorders are expressed as ____________________.
dominant disorders
codominant
