Document Summary
Describe approaches and methods to conduct genetic studies in model organisms. Describe the programs of genetic investigation and explain how each approach allows testing speci c genetic hypotheses (ex. forward vs. reverse genetics analysis) Relate to and use the core principles of genetics to formulate hypotheses and predictions, and design experiments to test them. Identify model organisms and their bene ts to the study of genetics. Differentiate between spontaneous and induced mutations and discuss their old and manner in which they introduce mutations in a genome and used for genetic investigations. Discuss the bene ts (advantages) and limitations of experimental crosses to test genetic hypothesis. Explain what are genetic markers and their role in genetic investigations. Describe various approaches used for genetic screening and analysis and the results they provide and their advantages and limitations. Describe approaches used for studying genes, gene functions (knock-outs and gene targeting technologies), and genomes, and their bene ts.
