Population Genetics & Speciation Population Genetics –the study of evolution from a genetic point of view (microevolution) Population biologists –study many different traits in populations –such as size and color. *Remember: alleles are the variations in genes that code for traits) Microevolution a...
Cellular elements from these cell types proliferate excessively throughout the body forming tumors and the melanocytes function abnormally resulting in disordered skin pigmentation.The tumors may cause bumps under the skin, colored spots, skeletal problems, pressure on?spinal nerve roots, and other ...
A problem from Darwin’s theory of evolution How could a slightly favourable characteristic possibly be passed on in a population long enough to be naturally selected without being washed out back to the mean of the population? Answer: the inheritable characteristic is carried in a discrete, disco...

Despite these notable examples, the function of most lncRNAs remains unknown, and it has been postulated that many lncRNAs may not be functional, owing to their minimal sequence conservation17. Comparative sequence analysis can provide useful information for dissecting lncRNA evolution and functions18,...
Session 3 The Law of Dominance We get one set of chromosomes from mom and one set from dad – SOOO we have TWO copies of each gene! Ex. Color of Pea Seeds YY Yellow Yy Yellow yy green ___ ___ Genotype (in the genes) Phenotype (physical appearance) Recessive only shows when paired...
