Genetic Evolution
Sexual reproduction produces distinct population variations. Heredity determines the traits and qualities to be passed down to the progeny. Over time, this variation within-species is also affected by the process of human evolution. The study of how gene…
Question

Today you learned about the structure of chromosomes and some of the conditions that arise in humans from chromosomal abnormalities.  Why do you think this lesson directly precedes a lesson on mitosis and the cell cycle (about how cells duplicate)?  Explain your reasoning using at least TWO facts/characteristics of chromosomes and information about at least ONE chromosomal disorder from today's lesson.
