Topics include the Central Dogma, Transmission and Population Genetics. Each topic has multiple choice, true/false and long-answer questions. Includes sequence conversion (20), pedigree-based questions (20), calculation of allele percentage in a population (18). Includes lab-based question set with a mix of question types (50). One full, 50 question pre-formatted test for each main topic is included (using the questions in each topic). All questions and pre-formatted tests include answer keys.

A total of 20 crossword puzzles which include the Central Dogma, Transmission Genetics, Population Genetics and General (mixed) questions. In addition, 17 word search puzzles are also included. The answer key includes all crossword and word search puzzles.

Worksheets include sequence conversion of DNA to mRNA and polypeptide (6), mutation annotation (2), probability of random match in DNA (3), computing cross probability (3), pedigrees (7), basic forensics (5), paternity (4), H-W alleles in a population (3), pull and present in class exercise (2), crossword puzzles (4), lab-based (4), matching (4), scientific method components (3). Can be used for in class exercises or homework and include an answer key. Several of the topics also include “how-to” tutorials (as shown above for sequence conversion).

The goal of this color KINDLE book is to prepare you for the transition to independent thought using primary literature. A total of 31 abstracts are broken down into the components of the scientific method, then briefly discussed using the central dogma, transmission and population genetics concepts. Seeing how others solve problems will give you a strong understanding of how to “do” Genetics.

People do not ask multiple choice questions, they ask, “what do you think?” or “what would you do?” or “How would you fix this?”. This book helps you understand what questions to ask and, generally, where the answers can be found.

This non-duplicating book is designed as a simple solution for keeping track of your experiments. It has a table of contents and 80 numbered, lined pages.
