Document Summary
Classical and modern genetics: 1972- first recombinant dna molecule in vitro by paul berg, 1973- first cloned recombinant dna molecule by herbert boyer and stanley cohen, 1986- development of the polymerase chain reaction to amplify specific segments of. Hypothetico-deductive method of investigation: making observations, coming up with hypotheses to explain the observations, making experimental predictions based on hypotheses, and testing the predictions. Basic research is research carried out to understand fundamental phenomena; applied research is research carried out with a goal in mind. Genetic databases have begun to play a critical role in genetics research online. Genetic maps show the arrangements of genes along chromosomes and genetic distances between genes. Genetic distance is calculated based on frequency of recombination.
