Development:
- Mendel's Laws.
- Hybrid concept; homozygosity and heterozygosity.
- Gene and allele concept.
- Genotype and phenotype concept.
- Dominant, recessive, codominant alleles and intermediate inheritance.
All seen with simple examples. The problems: exclusively of application of Mendel's laws. Problems of codominance, intermediate inheritance, allelic series, inheritance linked to sex or Mendel's third law may be included, but without combining these difficulties in the same problem. Blood group problems of the AB0 system (allelic series + codominance) and Rh can be raised, but without combining with any other difficulty. Family tree problems will not be included.
The nomenclature of genetic problems will follow what is agreed in the document attached as an annex to the program.
