Define Mendel’s two laws of heredity that explain the transmission of traits from one generation to the next
[
multiple courses
]
Demonstrate a general understanding of how DNA (and RNA) based methods contribute to many areas of ecology, including the identification of species for wildlife management and forensic purposes, conservation biology, behavioural ecology, the study of dispersal on historical and contemporary timescales, management of captive breeding to rescue and support wild populations
[
BIOL 3042
]
Describe the basic chemical structure of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA), and their function in the processes of replication, transcription, and translation of genetic information.
[
multiple courses
]
Provide examples of transmission of traits that deviate from Mendel's laws of heredity
[
BIOL 1010
]
Understand the concepts and role genetics plays in conservation of marine mammals
[
BIOL 3090
]
Design DNA primers that could be used for targeted amplification of specific DNA segments via PCR.
[
BIOL 3042
]
Explain how DNA sequence data are used to identify species, and how this methodology has developed into a new subdiscipline of taxonomic science known as ‘DNA barcoding’
[
BIOL 3042
]
Comprehend the complexity of homology relationships under a variety of different molecular evolutionary processes.
[
BIOL 3046
]
Develop basic understanding of molecular phylogenetics
[
BIOL 3301
]
Know mechanisms for functional divergence at the molecular level that span a wide range of biological complexity. Understand how specific models of adaptive evolution explain real examples of functional divergence.
[
BIOL 3046
]
Understand how molecular evolutionary processes give rise to patterns of genetic diversity that we observe in the natural world, and how to use those patterns to make inferences about different processes.
[
BIOL 3046
]
Understand the importance of molecular evolution in the post-genomic era, and be able to explain this to non-specialists.
