Genetics refers to the study of heredity. In genetics, you will learn about genes, genetic
variation, and heredity in living organisms. The [course_title] course illustrates the principles of
genetics with application to the study of biological function from the level of molecules, cells,
and multicellular organisms, including humans. The course teaches you the structure and
function of genes, chromosomes and genomes, biological variation resulting from
recombination, mutation, and selection, and population genetics. Finally, you will know the use
of genetic methods to analyse protein function, gene regulation and inherited disease for the
betterment of human being.
Assessment
This course does not involve any written exams. Students need to answer 5 assignment questions to complete the course, the answers will be in the form of written work in pdf or word. Students can write the answers in their own time. Each answer needs to be 200 words (1 Page). Once the answers are submitted, the tutor will check and assess the work.
