Unit 18 Genetics and Genetic Engineering

You are working for the Sanger Institute and you have been asked to demonstrate basic DNA techniques to students visiting the facility. Carry out the following DNA techniques: • DNA Extraction • PCR Reaction and Electrophoresis • Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism analysis and Electrophoresis • pGlo Genetic Transformtion Record your activities in your notebooks. For each practical you must include a description of the method, results, conclusions and photographs documenting your i...

You are a geneticist working for a genetics company. You have need asked to take students on a visit around your facility. In order to do this you have been asked to complete a short assessment to ensure you are familiar with level 3 Mendelian genetics. Create a glossary of terms to demonstrate your understanding of monohybrid and dihybrid inheritance. Use a punnet square to demonstrate how two individuals who are not affected by Cystic Fibrosis can have a child who is affected by Cystic Fibro...

Protein synthesis is said to be the central dogma of molecular biology. It is the key assumption of molecular biology, namely, that each gene in the DNA molecule carries the information needed to construct one protein, which, acting as an enzyme, controls one chemical reaction in the cell. You are preparing to visit the Sanger Institute which is the work place of the world’s leading Geneticists. Before you visit you must show that you have a good understanding of how DNA functions to produce ...

You work in a cytology lab and have started to do workshops for college and sixth form science students. You will have to investigate and produce resources for workshops on cell division. Draw and describe the stages of mitosis and meiosis cell division on a poster. Carry out a root tip squash investigation to identify cells that are actively dividing. When a dividing cell is identified, photograph the cell labelling which stage of mitosis it is in. When you have identified cells in each st...
