Genetics: The Blueprint of Life
Genetics is the study of heredity and how traits are passed from parents to offspring. It involves understanding genetic makeup (genotype) and physical attributes (phenotype) determined by genes. Mendel's laws of segregation and independent assortment explain how alleles and traits are inherited. Nu
