Course description:  Principles underlying the heritability of traits will
be covered prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms (i.e. bacteria, plants,
animals).  The dynamics of genes in individuals and populations, as well as

developmental systems, their contributions to human disease, genetic
diseases in humans and genome projects.
