  • Unit 9: Mendelian Genetics & Chromosomes

    Do you ever wonder why you look so similar to your brother, or where you got your freckles from? Are you concerned about developing a disease that another family member struggles with? These are the types of questions that can be answered with an understanding of genetics. This unit will teach you about the basic principles of inheritance and will help you understand the chances of a trait being passed from one generation to another.

    Completing this unit should take you approximately 5 hours.
