Compare and contrast the fundamental mechanisms that regulate gene expression in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. [BIOL 2030] Comprehend the basic principles of population and quantitative genetics, and give examples of their application to real biological systems. [BIOL 2030] Define and explain the four evolutionary forces, mutation, selection, drift and migration. [BIOL 2040] Describe and diagram the structure of DNA. [BIOL 2030] Describe how DNA is transcribed to RNA and how RNA is translated into proteins. [BIOL 2030] Describe the most basic similarities and differences between Bacteria, Archaea and Eukaryotes, and the evolutionary relationships between ‘protists’ and animals, plants and fungi. [BIOL 1010] Interpret genetic and protein variability using detailed knowledge of the genetic code and the processes of transcription and translation. [BIOL 2030]
