Genetics

At the end of this course, the learner will be able to:
In terms of knowledge:
1. Understand the differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms:
Identify the distinct genetic characteristics of these two types of organism.
2. Master molecular biology techniques: Understand the basic principles of
techniques such as such as PCR, transgenesis and cloning, and their application in
genetics.
3. Recognising genetic abnormalities: Understand the different types of mutations
and their effects on organisms, as well as the methods for detecting genetic
anomalies in plants and animals.
4. Know Mendel's laws: Understand Mendel's laws of heredity and their application to animal genetics.
