About this course
Genetics is the science of heredity, and it begins with one molecule: DNA. This intermediate course explains the structure of DNA, how it copies itself, how traits are inherited from parents, how our 23 chromosome pairs are arranged, and how CRISPR lets scientists edit genes. Microscope images and videos from Crash Course, Amoeba Sisters, and TED-Ed make the code of life visible.
