Presentation Unit 7 - The control of gene expression
In depth explanation, covering all the specification requirements on what you need to know about Inheritance and Population. Includes definitions, explanations of how to use definitions, work examples of punnet squares for monohybrid and dihybrid crossing, an in depth labeled table of how to determine the genotypes of parents, genotypes of gametes, genotypes of offsprings, and phenotype of offsprings (including labels of heterozygous, homozygous, dominance, and recession), it also includes how to calculate frequency of phenotypes. Includes definitions of Co-dominance, more information on co-dominance, how to determine co-dominance. Includes definition of sex-linkage, in depth information on what sex-linkage is, a labelled sex-linkage punnet square with a spec-required example. Definition of autosomal linkage, in depth explanation of autosomal linkage, and a worked example of autosomal linkage. Definition of epistasis, in depth information on epistasis, and a very detailed, labeled flow chart of how epistasis works. A definition of the Chi-squared test, in depth working out of the chi-squared test, the formula, degrees of freedom definition, information on observed phenotypic ratios with expected ratios, examples, definitions, and in depth explanations of null hypothesis. In depth information and explanations as well as definition of population genetics, gene pools, species, etc (all spec points met and explained.) A definition and worked in depth example (and information) on the hardy-weinberg principle (and equation, as well as how to use it). Explanation of how to work out frequencies (of alleles and individuals). Discusses all the assumptions of the hardy-weinberg equation/principle in points. A numbered step-by-step example and explanation of how to use the hardy-weinberg equation. The document is the equivalent of 6 A4 Papers of normal handwriting (this document was made on an Ipad so that you can scroll through and zoom in at ease.)
