Biology 12 Research Assignment \u2013 Genetic and Chromosomal Mutations<\/u><\/p>\n

Your research assignment shall include a hard copy of a 500 word essay (minimum) and including information on at least 2 mutations<\/u><\/strong> affecting our species (stay away from frogs and crocodiles). Use your textbook’s chapter 25 and\/or p 13 of your DNA booklet to help with ideas on what to research, the “Map of Chromosome X”.

Citations<\/strong> (2 plus Wikipedia, reputable, think EBSCO or GALE virtual library)<\/p>\n

A synopsis<\/strong> of both mutations, including the 5 W\u2019s of good reporting:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Who (where in the world is this most prevalent; is a gender more prone to getting this)<\/li>\n
  2. Where (which chromosome is most affected; what part of the body is affected, etc)<\/li>\n
  3. What (describe how this mutation is expressed, is it lethal? Do they have 6 toes?)<\/li>\n
  4. When (provide some history of the research of this mutation, when and who founded it? And how did they discover it?)<\/li>\n
  5. Why (how did this mutation happen? Do they think it\u2019s x-rays or deli meat? Give the cause if known or suspected cause if ongoing)<\/li>\n
  6. Anything else you think of that would lend itself to good reporting.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Include a picture or diagram of each mutation; what do they look like? How does it occur?<\/p>\n

    Due Monday November 30th<\/sup><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

    No extensions in Term 2. On time or lose 10% immediately and 10% per day thereafter as per the Biology 12 outline.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
