Genetics
Genetics is the branch of biology concerned with the study of genes, genetic variation, and heredity in living organisms. It explains how traits and characteristics are passed from parents to offspring through DNA. Genetics plays a crucial role in fields such as medicine, agriculture, and evolutionary biology. The discipline encompasses molecular genetics, population genetics, and genomics, providing insight into gene function, inheritance patterns, and the genetic basis of diseases. Understanding genetics has led to advances in genetic engineering, biotechnology, and personalized medicine.
