Notes

Lecture 7: Rediscovery of Mendel and advances by TH Morgan

  • Mendel’s 2nd Law(Completely Independent) vs Chrom Theory(Completely Dependent)
  • Recombination
  • Mitosis(有丝分裂): G1 –> S/G2 –> Mitosis –> G1
  • Meiosis(减数分裂): G1 –> S/G2 (recombination could occur) –> Meiosis I –> Meiosis II –> End
