Helping undergraduates in the analysis of genetic problems, this work emphasizes solutions, not just answers. The strategy is to provide the student with the essential steps and the reasoning involved in conducting the analysis, and throughout the book, an attempt is made to present a balanced account of genetics. Topics, therefore, center about Mendelian, cytogenetic, molecular, quantitative, and population genetics, with a few more specialized areas. Whenever possible, the student is provided with the appropriate basic statistics necessary to make some the analyses. The book also builds on itself; that is, analytical methods learned in early parts of the book are subsequently revisited and used for later analyses. A deliberate attempt is made to make complex concepts simple, and sometimes to point out that apparently simple concepts are sometimes less so on further investigation. Any student taking a genetics course will find this an invaluable aid to achieving a good understanding of genetic principles and practice.

Intended for students of biology, genetics and zoology, this manual aims to help students learn how to solve problems in genetics by discussing approximately 10 problem-solving concepts for each major topic in genetics. These include: malosis, X-linkage and chromosomal changes. This guide offers an increased number of problems, accompanied by detailed solutions, discussions and explanations. Features include more coverage of gene technology, and detailed solutions in the appendix.

The Problem Solvers are an exceptional series of books that are thorough, unusually well-organized, and structured in such a way that they can be used with any text. No other series of study and solution guides has come close to the Problem Solvers in usefulness, quality, and effectiveness. Educators consider the Problem Solvers the most effective series of study aids on the market. Students regard them as most helpful for their school work and studies. With these books, students do not merely memorize the subject matter, they really get to understand it. Each Problem Solver is over 1,000 pages, yet each saves hours of time in studying and finding solutions to problems. These solutions are worked out in step-by-step detail, thoroughly and clearly. Each book is fully indexed for locating specific problems rapidly. Thorough coverage is given to cell mechanics, chromosomes, Mendelian genetics, sex determination, mutations and alleles, bacterial and viral genetics, biochemistry, immunogenetics, genetic engineering, probability, and statistics.

Key Benefit: A supplement for any genetics book, this guide gives readers thorough instruction and practice for solving genetics problems. Using callout comments, the author walks readerse through the process of breaking down word problems by dissecting each sentence. At each significant point in the statement of a problem, readers learn to evaluate the given data, think about how it fits into the larger picture, and analyze relationships that lead to a potential solution. Currently, How to Solve Genetics Problems can be packaged with Pearson genetics books for a special value package price. Key Topics: Chromosome Mechanics - Mitosis and Meiosis, Transmission genetics, Linkage and Mapping, Molecular biology: DNA, Molecular biology: Proteins, Transcription, Translation, and Mutation, Genetic regulation: Prokaryotes, Population genetics and Evolution Market: Intended for those interested in learning the basics of genetics

An invaluable student-tested study aid, this primer, first published in 2007, provides guided instruction for the analysis and interpretation of genetic principles and practice in problem solving. Each section is introduced with a summary of useful hints for problem solving and an overview of the topic with key terms. A series of problems, generally progressing from simple to more complex, then allows students to test their understanding of the material. Each question and answer is accompanied by detailed explanation. This third edition includes additional problems in basic areas that often challenge students, extended coverage in molecular biology and development, an expanded glossary of terms, and updated historical landmarks. Students at all levels, from beginning biologists and premedical students to graduates seeking a review of basic genetics, will find this book a valuable aid. It will complement the formal presentation in any genetics textbook or stand alone as a self-paced review manual.

Written by Peter Mirabito from University of Kentucky, the Study Guide/Solutions Manual is divided into five sections: Genetics Problem-Solving Toolkit, Types of Genetics Problems, Solutions to End-of-Chapter Problems, and Test Yourself. In the "toolkit," students are reminded of key terms and concepts and key relationships that are needed to solve the types of problems in a chapter. This is followed by a breakdown of the types of problems students will encounter in the end of chapter problems for a particular chapter: they learn the key strategies to solve each type, variations on a problem type that they may encounter, and a worked example modeled after the Genetic Analysis feature of the main textbook. The solutions also reflect the Evaluate, Deduce, and Solve strategy of the Genetic Analysis feature. As not all end-of-chapter problems will require all three steps, the solution is broken down to reflect only the solution strategies required to find the answer. This approach helps students assess the level of problems and the solution strategies that they struggle with the most. Finally, for more practice, 10 Test Yourself problems and accompanying solutions are included.
