Mysteries of Genetics

The book by Dmitry Shitikov, Mysteries of Genetics, will tell about tiny particles — DNA, which store genetic information and are responsible for the vast diversity of organisms on Earth: for their qualities, abilities, instincts, and predispositions to diseases. It also explains why we resemble our parents and can inherit traits of their character or appearance. The author will discuss what heredity is, why Gregor Mendel sowed peas, whether there are three-colored cats, if there is a genius gene, how scientists cross the genes of different organisms, and much more... For average school age.
