GENETIC MAJORS ONLY PLEASE!!! EVEN IF YOU WRITE IN POINT FORM THAT IS FINE AS LONG AS I GET HELP WITH THE ARTICLE AND QUESTIONS!! THANK YOU
Choose a current newspaper article (no older than two years before the start of your course contract) that describes a genetic study. The article cannot be from a medical/health type of information source (such as Science Daily), or from a scientific publication.

Include any other information relevant to your studies in this course, as provided in the article. (20 marks)
ANSWER THE FOLLOWING AFTER FINDING AN ARTICLE
-describe the phenotype of the trait.
-describe the genetic basis of the trait, identifying known genes, other genes involved, and any contributing environmental factors (or other information provided) that are relevant to expression of the trait.
-name the mode of inheritance if it is given or if you can deduce it.
-describe the particular type of mutation, as applicable.
-describe the related protein and its normal and mutant effects.
-identify any genetic technologies used in the study.
-does the author make any errors in use of terminology?
-Include a copy of the article (original, copy, or pdf attachment)
