Genetics is a Science course in the CTY program which has a Biology course, CTY or otherwise, as a prerequisite. Its course code is GENE, and it is offered at Baltimore, as well as Carlisle. It was also offered at Loudonville and Los Angeles (first session only).
Course Description
The first week of Genetics is heavily laden with review, covering things such as Mitosis, Meiosis, Punnet Squares, and the like. Depending on your high school's biology program, you may or may not be bored for the first week.
Class History
"Recently, there was a robbery at a warehouse that stored bull semen. Your friend, about to undergo artificial insemination, is worried that there may be a mixup and she will end up giving birth to a minotaur, a half-human, half-bull entity. Explain to your friend why this is impossible."
