如果将来想学生物、医学、化学等热门专业,ALEVEL生物是很多同学逃不掉的一门选课。如果你也选了这门课,就来看看本文分享的应用遗传学相关ALEVEL生物知识点,更好地准备生物考核吧。
ALEVEL生物知识点有哪些?
A-level生物第1年主要学习生物分子、细胞、生物如何与环境交换物质和遗传信息、生物之间的变异和关系。
A-level生物第2年学习生物体内部和生物体之间的能量传递、生物体如何应对内外环境的变化、遗传学、种群、进化和生态系统以及基因表达的控制。
A-level生物一共包含3场考试,每场考试2小时。前两张试卷各占总成绩的35%,第3张试卷占30%。
生物的题型分为3个Paper:
Paper 1——40道选择题,时间为45分钟,占总比重的30%,考察同学们对基本生物知识点的掌握。
Paper 3——大约6道解答题,时间长为1小时15分钟,占总比重的50%,更深入的考察同学们对知识点的掌握。
Paper 6——是实验代替题(不需要真地做实验),它的考试时间为1个小时。大家可以把Paper6想象升级版的解答题。
应用遗传学相关ALEVEL生物知识点
Define genetic screening
Testing a population for the presence or absence of a gene
Discuss three advantages and disadvantages of genetic screening
Advantages
Lessen the devastating impact of genetic disease
Identification of persons who have genetically determined susceptibilities to specific environmental agents
Insurance Companies can give lower premiums
Disadvantage
Can stigmatize and emotionally traumatize those who learn that they are carriers of genetic defects
Invasion of privacy
Has the potential of being used to dictate who may or may not reproduce
State that the Human Genome project is an international cooperative venture to sequence the complete human genome
Discuss two possible advantages of this project
Understanding of many genetic diseases
Genome libraries
Production of gene probes to detect sufferers and carriers of genetic diseases
Production of pharmaceuticals based on DNA sequences
Define clone
A group of organisms of identical genotype / a group of cells descended from a single parent cell.
Outline a technique used in the cloning of farm animals
Early division of a fertilized egg produces 8 cells each of which would give rise to an embryo (totipotency).
After in vitro fertilization processes the 8 resultant separated embryos can be transferred to surrogate mothers (e.g. cattle or sheep) to continue using selected prime animals for the production of gametes
At present used for genetically manipulated animals to produce pharmaceuticals
Discuss the ethical issues of cloning human embryos
Happens naturally in monozygotic twins
In vitro fertilization of twins unacceptable?
Selection of those fit to be cloned
Eugenics and super-race?
Discuss the results of crop plant and animal breeding
Breeding for disease resistance
Increased food production
Higher yields of milk/wool/protein
Breeding plants that can spread
