    What does a geneticist do

    Scientists who study genetics study genes and heredity: how certain characteristics are inherited by offspring because their parents had these characteristics. Do you have the same eye color as your mother or father? Do twins "run" in your family? These characteristics, or traits, are inherited. They are passed from your parents to you by genes. Genes (1) ____contain________ DNA that occupies a (2) _________specific_________ place on a chromosome. DNA (3) ___________Determines____________ a specific trait in the (4) ____________organism___________ . Even the fact that you were born a boy or a girl was determined by genes. DNA is found in the (5) __________nucleus_____________ of each cell. When a baby is made, one cell from the father joins with one cell from the mother. This tiny cell (6) __________contains_____________ all the information stored in DNA to make a new person - you! If you are a boy, you were given DNA from your father containing a "y" chromosome. If you are a girl, you were given DNA from your father (7) _________containing______________ an "x" chromosome. Your mother could only give you an x chromosome. Girls have two x chromosomes, and boys have an x and a y chromosome. The information in the DNA you inherited from your parents also (8) __________determine____________ what color of eyes you would have, the color of your hair, the type of ear lobes you have, and whether or not you can roll your tongue.…

    Psy/340 Wk4 Genetics Evaluation

    In my previous experiences and conversations with various individuals, the overall interpretation or misconception of bipolar disease is that the person is “”crazy. What do people really consider or mean by the term crazy? As displayed by Team B’s behavior presentation, Bipolar disorder is a mental illness that is also referred to as maniac-depressive illness, characterized by unusual changes in the persons energy, mood, activity level, and how they are able to follow through with day-to-day activities (Bipolar Disorder, P. 1). The first lesson in differentiating the difference in “crazy” and bipolar is that a person can live a close to normal, if not completely normal life with proper care and treatment.…

    Genetic Counseling: Next Generation Sequencing (NGS)

    Since competition drives forward the technology used by genetic counselors each scientist believes their own method is the best. Of course each method comes with their own respective advantages and disadvantages. The most common type of genetic sequencing used by counselors is called next generation sequencing (NGS). When using NGS, you are provided with the benefit of much faster and cheaper method of sequencing multiple strands of DNA. Although the benefits of NGS are helpful in some cases, it does come with disadvantages that when compared to its competitor, Sanger method, could be an issue. These disadvantages include the limited number of base pairs that can be sequenced on a given DNA strand and the fact it gives you far more knowledge…

    The Human Genome Project

    Today I will be defining the Human Genome project. This is a project to study, research, implement, and produce a DNA sequence of the Human Genome System. The human genome project is working to try and find a way to see what every gene in the human body actually does. They have already done a DNA sequence of human genes. They discovered the human body has more proteins than they first thought; now they have to see what each protein does. When they discover this it might be feasible to actually re-grow human body parts.…

    Genetic Testing

    Genes, the chemical messages of heredity, represent a blueprint of our possibilities and limitations. The legacy of generations of ancestors, our genes carry the key to our similarities and our uniqueness. When genes are working properly, our bodies develop and function smoothly. But should a single gene or even a tiny segment of a single gene go askew, the consequences can lead to deformities and disease, even death.…

    Extension of mendelian inheritance

    Incomplete dominance is a form of intermediate inheritance in which one allele for a specific trait is not completely dominant over the other allele. This results in a third phenotype in which the expressed physical trait is a combination of the dominant and recessive phenotypes. Incomplete dominance is similar to, but different from co-dominance. In co-dominance, an additional phenotype is produced , however both alleles are expressed completely. Co-dominance is exemplified in AB blood type inheritance. Incomplete dominance is seen in cross-pollination experiments between red and white snapdragon plants. The dominant allele that produces the red color is not completely expressed over the recessive allele that produces the white color. The resulting offspring are pink…
