About Genetics and Inheritance
GoConqr OriginalWhat the resources cover
The unit follows genetics from the basics to the molecular detail. Core inheritance is covered by mind maps such as Punnett Squares, Gregor Mendel and SUMMARY OF GENETIC CROSSES, plus a quiz on Dihybrid Crosses. Further in, you will find Protein Synthesis as a flowchart, the Mutation mind map, and resources on DNA fingerprinting, genetic engineering, cloning and the Human Genome Project.
Population-level work is here too. The mind map on population genetics and the Hardy-Weinberg principle explains the gene pool and allele frequency, and a university quiz asks you to work out allele frequencies from genotype counts.
Where to start
- Begin with the basics: Chromosomes, Genes and DNA and Inheritance GCSE set out chromosomes, mitosis and copying genes.
- Move to crossing: try Genetics - Simple Punnet Squares and Basic Genetics.
- Then take on Mutation, Gene Expression and Genetic Engineering.
- Finish with population genetics and the harder university quizzes.
Using quizzes and maps together
Read a mind map first to see how the ideas link, such as meiosis making gametes and mitosis making identical daughter cells. Then take a quiz on the same topic and note what you missed. Flashcards like Genetics Definitions help fix terms such as allele, dominant and recessive.
Exam-linked material
Many items are labelled for specific courses. Examples include the NCEA level 1 Genetics quiz, the IB Biology Topic 4 Genetics (SL) flashcards, AQA Biology Variation and Inheritance and the 0654 IGCSE Coordinated Sciences Inheritance Quiz. Check the wording against your own course.
Where this unit sits
This unit belongs to the Genetics and Evolution strand of Biology and natural sciences. Pick a topic above, try one quiz, then make your own maps and flashcards to fill any gaps.
Frequently asked questions
Which resource should I start with?
If genetics is new, start with the mind maps Chromosomes, Genes and DNA and Inheritance GCSE. Then try the quiz Genetics - Simple Punnet Squares to test the basics. Once those feel comfortable, move on to mutations, gene expression and the dihybrid crosses quiz.
What do the mind maps on this page cover?
They range from inheritance basics such as Gregor Mendel, Punnett Squares and genetic crosses to mutations, DNA fingerprinting, cloning, genetic engineering, albinism, PKU and the Human Genome project. There is also a population genetics map on the Hardy-Weinberg principle and allele frequencies.
Which exams and courses do the resources suit?
Listed resources mention GCSE Biology, IGCSE, A-level Biology, IB Biology, AP Biology and several NCEA levels. There are also AQA, SACE and Biology 30 items. University course quizzes and flashcards are included too, so check each title for your course.
Are the resources free to use?
Yes. Every resource listed here is free to open, study and take, with no account needed. They were made by GoConqr users rather than by GoConqr itself. A free account also saves your quiz scores and lets you make your own quizzes, mind maps, flashcards and notes.
Is there anything for population genetics?
Yes. The mind maps Population genetics; the Hardy-Weinberg principle and The Hardy-Weinberg Principle cover gene pools and allele frequency. The university quiz Biology 102, Exam 2 includes a worked question on finding allele frequencies from genotype counts in a population.
What if I can't find my topic?
Try searching related terms, such as variation, DNA or inheritance, since the same idea often appears under different titles. If a topic is still missing, you can build your own flashcards or notes for it and use the listed resources as models.
