What is Genética Website?

Genetics is the area of study of biology that seeks to understand and explain how biological inheritance is transmitted from generation to generation. It is a of the fundamental areas of modern biology, encompassing within it a large number of own and interdisciplinary disciplines that are directly related to biochemistry and cell biology.
The objective of this page is to serve students and teachers for teaching-learning of the concepts and techniques of genetics.
