Document Summary
Norman borlaug ended up saving millions of people from starvation. An increase in yield - made a massive difference. Later led to the benefits of the entire world. Genetics has been used for thousands of years. Each division of the overall fields of genetics is important to all of the other divisions. Biochemistry, cell biology, mechanisms all involved: population - allele (the form of the gene) allele frequency in the population (a single gene that result in a specific phenotype) dna sequence to phenotype. Requirements for a successful semester in bio 313. Chemical bonding sp3 and sp2 bonding configurations. Molecular shape tetrahedral shape in some molecules, planar shape in others. Polarity of chemical bonds uneven distribution of electrons shared between atoms positive charge on one end of the bonded pair of atoms, negative charge on the other end. Transformation is the process in which defining a gene to produce a specific phenotype.
