11 -5 Unit 2: Genetics Continuity Course: & Test demonstrate an understanding of the necessity of meiosis and describe the perform laboratory studies of meiosis and analyse the results of genetic research related to the laws of heredity; outline the scientific findings and some of the technological advances that led to the modern concept of the gene and to genetic technology, and demonstrate an awareness of some of the social and political issues raised by genetic research and reproductive technology. demonstrate an understanding of the process and importance of mitosis (e.g., cell division and the phases of mitosis); explain how the concepts of DNA, genes, chromosomes, and meiosis account for the transmission of hereditary characteristics from generation to generation (e.g., explain how the sex of an individual can be determined genetically; demonstrate an understanding that the expression of a genetic disorder linked to the sex chromosomes is more common in males than in females); describe and explain the process of discovery (e.g., the sequence of studies and the knowledge gained) that led Mendel to formulate his laws of heredity; explain the process of meiosis in terms of the replication and movement of chromosomes; describe genetic disorders (e.g., Down syndrome, cystic fibrosis, muscular dystrophy, fragile X syndrome) in terms of the chromosomes affected, physical effects, and treatment; explain, using Mendelian genetics, the concepts of dominance, co-dominance,
