General Biology I

These are the notes for Lecture 22 & 23: Cell Communication in General Biology I. The topics covered are cell division and differentiation, hormones, cancer, pathogens, single cells, and multicellular life.

These are the notes for Lecture 21: The Molecular Basis of Inheritance in General Biology I. The topics covered are chromosomes, chromatin, DNA replication, and repair.

These are the notes for Lecture 20: Chromosomal Theory in General Biology I. The topics covered are recombination, genetic maps, meiotic nondisjunction, and genomic imprinting. I got a B on this test using these notes and this corresponds to Exam 3.

These are the notes for Lecture 17: Meiosis and Mendel in General Biology I. The topics covered are meiosis, genetic variation, Mendel's timeline, and the Law of Segregation. I got a B+ on this test using these notes and this corresponds to Exam 3.

These notes are from Lecture 16: Meiosis in General Biology I. They cover asexual versus sexual reproduction, mitosis, and meiosis.

These are the notes from Lecture 31: DNA Technology in General Biology I. The topics covered are HPV, PCR, cycle sequencing, next-generation sequencing, bacterial plasmids, and RNA sequencing.

These notes are for Lecture 8: The Cell in General Biology I. The topics covered are plant and animal cells, prokaryotes versus eukaryotes, the organelles of a cell, and their functions.

These are the notes for Lecture 28: Regulation of Gene Expression in General Biology I. The topics covered are histone tails, DNA methylation, epigenetic inheritance, enhancers, transcription factors, and alternative RNA splicing.

These are the notes from Lecture 27: Regulation of Gene Expression in Bacteria in General Biology I. The topics covered are the metabolic pathway, trp operon model, and lac operon.

These notes are from Lecture 14 & 15: Photosynthesis in General Biology I. They cover photosystems, cyclic electron flow, the Calvin Cycle, and photorespiration.
