Chapter 13
13.1 – offspring acquire genes from parents by inheriting chromosomes
13.2 – fertilization and meiosis alternate in sexual life cycle
13.3 – meiosis reduces the number of chromosome sets from diploid to haploid
13.4 – genetic variation produced in sexual life cycles contributes to evolution

Chapter 14
14.1 – Mendel used the scientific approach to identify two laws of inheritance
14.2 – the laws of probability govern Mendelian inheritance
14.3 – inheritance patterns are often more complex than predicted by simple Mendelian genetics
14.4 – many human traits follow Mendelian patterns of inheritance

Chapter 15
15.1 – Mendelian inheritance has its physical basis in the behavior of chromosomes
15.2 – sex-linked genes exhibit unique patterns of inheritance
15.3 – linked genes tend to be inherited together because they are located near each other on the same chromosome
15.4 – alteration of chromosome number or structure causes genetic disorder
15.5 – some inheritance patterns are exceptions to standard Mendelian inheritance
