During this semester elective you will study Genetics, DNA, Evolution and inheritance patterns. You will gain an insight into the role of genetics in determining the presence of inherited diseases, the characteristics passed on from parents to offspring and the role of gene technology in genetic engineering. You will also look at the work carried out by Darwin and Lamarck’s and their theories regarding evolution and the process of natural selection that drives evolution. You will consider how scientists have compiled the evidence that supports the theory of evolution. The impacts humans have on the planet and ecosystems play a major role in the survival or demise of a species, you will consider these important and topical issues including the social and ethical implications of Science.
