Complete Record: Lab demonstrations delve into the questions of what triggers growth and what switches on specific differentiation. The relationship between abnormalities in chromosomes and phenotypes is illustrated by examining the genetic background of three disorders in humans - achrondroplasia, the Wolf Hirschorn syndrome, and Down’s syndrome. Morphological effects of abnormality in one human chromosome, chromosome 13, are studied in detail.
