• Description: B7 Human reproduction (con) & B8 Inheritance and Evolution. Learn the secrets of HIV progression, transmission methods, and STI control. Explore the intricacies of inheritance, chromosomes, genes, and alleles, delving into the fascinating world of sex determination and cellular structures. Understand genotype, phenotype, and inheritance patterns, predicting outcomes with genetic diagrams and Punnett squares. Navigate through the realms of variation and mutation, understanding their impact on life's diversity. Witness the forces of natural selection and evolution, with antibiotic-resistant bacteria as a captivating example. Conclude with a deep dive into selective breeding, comparing natural and artificial selection, and uncovering how it enhances crops and animals.
