Electron microscopy
Scanning Electron Microscopy The scanning electron microscope (SEM) is an important tool in modern forensic science due to its wide range of applications. SEM allows the rapid analysis of elements that compose very small specimens and the conclusive determination of the origin of many materials... Read more |

Balanced Polymorphism
Balanced Polymorphism Balanced polymorphism is a situation in which two different versions of a gene are maintained in a population of organisms because individuals carrying both versions are better able to survive than those who have two copies of either version alone. The evolutionary process... Read more |

gene family
gene family (multigene family) A group of genes that have arisen by duplication of an ancestral gene. Such genes show similarities of nucleotide sequence that betray their common origin, and if they have evolved relatively recently they occur close together on the same chromosome. However, more...

myelin
myelin Myelin is the fatty insulating layer that surrounds many axons (nerve fibres) in both the central and peripheral nervous systems (CNS and PNS respectively). Nerve cells, with their axons, and glia are the two major cell types of the nervous systems. Myelin is formed from membranous sheets... Read more |

genetics
genetics scientific study of the mechanism of heredity. While Gregor Mendel first presented his findings on the statistical laws governing the transmission of certain traits from generation to generation in 1856, it was not until the discovery and detailed study of the chromosome and the gene ...

recombination
recombination process of "shuffling" of genes by which new combinations can be generated. In recombination through sexual reproduction , the offspring's complete set of genes differs from that of either parent, being rather a combination of genes from both parents. In recombination by ...
