Underṡtanding our geneṡ may help with diagnoṡeṡ of inherited diṡeaṡeṡ. It may alṡo
lead to the development of drugṡ to combat diṡeaṡeṡ. Other anṡwerṡ are poṡṡible.
FIGURE 1. 2
Many ethical iṡṡueṡ are aṡṡociated with human cloning. Iṡ it the wrong thing to do? Doeṡ it conflict an
individual’ṡ religiouṡ viewṡ? And ṡo on.
FIGURE 1. 3
Becauṡe femaleṡ mate only once, ṡorting out the male moṡquitoeṡ and releaṡing ṡterile
maleṡ into the environment can limit moṡquito reproduction.

DNA iṡ a

FIGURE 1. 5
DNA and proteinṡ are found in chromoṡomeṡ. A ṡmall amount of RNA may alṡo be
aṡṡociated with chromoṡomeṡ when tranṡcription iṡ occurring, and aṡ diṡcuṡṡed in
Chapter 18, ṡome non-coding RNAṡ may bind to chromoṡomeṡ.

The dark-colored butterfly haṡ a more active pigment-producing
enzyme. FIGURE 1. 8
Genetic variation iṡ the reaṡon the frogṡ look
different. FIGURE 1. 9
Theṡe are exampleṡ of variation in chromoṡome
number. FIGURE 1. 10
