Description
About the Book
Genetics is a branch of biology that studies genetic variation, gene function, and heredity in organisms. Important aspects of study within this field include the inheritance of traits and the molecular mechanisms underlying gene transmission. Genetics also explores the function and behavior of genes at both the individual and population levels. The main subfields of genetics include epigenetics, molecular genetics, and population genetics. Epigenetics examines heritable changes in gene expression or phenotype that do not involve alterations to the DNA sequence itself. Molecular genetics focuses on the structure, function, and regulation of genes at the molecular level, often using genetic screening techniques to study gene activity. Population genetics analyzes genetic variation within and between populations, providing insights into evolutionary processes. This book provides comprehensive insights into the field of genetics. It studies, analyzes and upholds the pillars of the discipline and its utmost significance in modern times. Those in search of information to further their knowledge will be greatly assisted by this book.Book Synopsis
