1. What is pangenesis and who proposed it?
2. Is it proven incorrect or correct?
3. What is epistasis?

Re: Heredity B/Designer Genes C Question Marathon
Pangenesis is Darwin's theory of heredity, which included some Lamarkian principles of passing on acquired traits as well as some other funky things. It was therefore disproved, replaced with Mendelian genetics.
Epistasis is when one gene's expression is modified by the presence of another gene.

Re: Heredity B/Designer Genes C Question Marathon
Codominance is when both phenotypes manifest together, such as with the black and white chickens or AB blood type, whereas incomplete dominance is when the two alleles modify each other causing a new phenotype, as with pink four-o-clock flowers.

Adenine and guanine are purines which have 2 rings and 4 atoms of nitrogen.
Cytosine, thymine, and uracil are pyrimidines which have 1 ring and 2 atoms of nitrogen.

Re: Heredity B/Designer Genes C Question Marathon
It's been a while since a question's been asked, so I thought I'd just ask a question! What is the purpose and special property of Taq polymerase in PCR?
