Class Description:
This is a fully online section offered through Online and Distance Learning (ODL), College of Continuing Education. You work independently, not as part of a student group. Visit "Class URL" for ODL policy, fee, and financial aid information. This course is intended to provide you with a broad understanding of genetics. In the first part of the course you will explore the structure, replication, and expression of the genetic material known as deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). As you examine DNA, you will gain an understanding of the molecular structure of DNA and its organization into units called genes. The next part of the course emphasizes inheritance patterns. In it, you will examine many types of inheritance patterns, including simple Mendelian inheritance, extra-chromosomal inheritance, linkage, and the quantitative traits that are determined by multiple genes. The last part of the course examines the genetic technologies that are used to analyze the genetic compositions of species and have applications in our everyday lives. This course ends with a consideration of genetics at the level of populations, and how the genetic compositions of populations evolve over time.
