Eugenics o :## The science of improving a human population by controlled breeding to increase the occurrence of desirable heritable characteristics. Developed largely by Francis Galton as a method of improving the human race, it fell into disfavor only after the perversion of its doctrines by the Nazis. Genomic imprinting o :## Phenomenon by which certain genes are expressed in a parent-of-originspecific manner. If the allele inherited from the father is imprinted, it is thereby sile...

OL Lab 7: Mendelian Inheritance: From genes to traits Learning Objectives:  Explain how traits are passed on from parents to their offspring and the factors that causes variations.  Apply Mendel’s Laws of Inheritance in color deficiency.  Compare and predict the phenotypes of offspring with given genotypes using Punnett squares.  Analyze dominant and recessive alleles, and how these alleles influence an individual’s biological make-up Our characteristics or traits are de...
