  • BIOL 281: Genetics Laboratory

    1.00 Credits
    Springfield College

    This course provides hands-on experience in the field of genetics. Classical (Mendelian) genetic crosses, genetic mapping of disease genes, and how genes are inherited in a population are shown using computer simulations. Molecular methods are employed to understand recombinant technology and the molecular basis of genetics. DNA fingerprinting, locating a specific gene in the genome, and the determination of mutagenic substances are examples of modern experiments performed in the laboratory. Prerequisites & Notes Co-requisite: Students must also register for BIOL 280 or permission of Instructor.
