    may have shaped human behaviour. Genes carry the instructions for the development of characteristics like intelligence‚ temperament and height. The main focus on how genetics has influenced our behaviour has looked at genotype and phenotype. Genotype is the genes a person has. Phenotype is the characteristics their genes produce. The genetic basis of behaviour has focused on trying to identify how much behaviour is influenced by genes and how much is influenced by the environment. Identical and non-identical

Rule of Probability In tossing a coin the odds of either a head or tail is always 50%. The outcome is unaffected by the previous attempt. If 2 coins are tossed‚ each will be dependent of the other HH‚ HT‚ TH‚ TT (Probability is 25% or ¼) The rules also hold true for genetics due to the law of independent assortment. Each alternative type of outcome in a gene acts independently

    However‚ according to our data‚ 83% of individuals were taster and 17% were non-tasters. I think reason of this error is we did phenotype experiment with just small amount of individuals. According to standard data for phenotype of individuals related to ethnicity‚ 10~24% of Asians were non-tasters (StewartKhataan). In our data‚ 13.51% of Asians were non-tasters and this result was very close to standard data. For Blacks‚ standard

Gregor Mendel (1822-1884) was an Austrian monk who lived in a monastery where the experiments with the garden pea were performed. Mendel’s work with the garden pea was the fundamental study which unveiled the laws that govern genetics and heredity. Mendel was the first to use the scientific method in a very systematic and analysed his results

    Gregor Mendel wondered is his principle of segregation worked with individuals who differed in two traits. To test this‚ Mendel crossed pure lined round‚ yellow seeds with pure lined wrinkled‚ green seeds. He predicted that the F_1 offspring would be heterozygous for both genes. Experiments had established that the allele for yellow seeds were the dominant allele (Y) and green seeds were the recessive allele (y). There were two different ways as to how seed shape and seed color would be passed onto

    certain phenotypes in organisms to serve their purpose. An example of artificial selection can be observed in the phenotypic diversity of dogs—which are the descendants of wolves‚ otherwise known as Canis lupus. Homo sapiens‚ with the aid of artificial selection‚ have been able to produce the number of dog breeds we currently have. On the contrary‚ natural selection is the natural (absolutely no human intervention involved in the process‚ aside from indirect) culling of organisms’ phenotype based on
