IB BIOLOGY GENETICS LATEST 2024 GRADED A+ Gene a heritable factor that controls a specific characteristic. Allele one specific form of a gene, differeing from other alleles by one or a few bases only and occupying the same locus as other alleles of the gene. Genome The whole of the genetic information of an organism gene mutation a change in the base sequence of a gene. Base substitution The smallest possible change is when one base in a gene is replaced by another. An exampl...

This document is the complete summary required to pass the IB Biology Standard Level exams. It includes a detailed and comprehensive (yet concise) summary of Chapters 1-6 of the new textbook by Andrew Allott, as well as case studies you can mention during the exam, drawings and diagrams of relevant biological processes (such as mitosis / meiosis), tables, and class notes from a leading IB school. These notes have been used exclusively in order to achieve a 7 in the course, and have therefore ...
