Welcome to My AP Biology Thoughts podcast, my name is Stefanie Ribecca and I am your host for episode # 104 called Unit 5 Heredity: Chromosomal Inheritance. Today we will be discussing how inheritance occurs in the chromosomal level. Segment 1: Introduction to Chromosomal InheritanceChromosomal inheritance is an extension of Mendelian genetics. Chromosomes contain DNA which carry the genetic information that code for proteins. Chromosomes are found in pairs, and increase genetic variation during meiosis.Segment 2: More About Chromosomal InheritanceDuring meiosis, non sister chromatids in homologous pairs exchange information during crossing over.Certain genes may be close together on the chromosome and may appear to be inherited together. Segment 3: Connection to the CourseChromosomal inheritance allows for a combination of traits from both parents. Genetic diversity from chromosomal inheritance allows individuals in a population to adapt to the environment.  Thank you for listening to this episode of My AP Biology Thoughts.   For more student-ran podcasts and digital content, make sure that you visit www.hvspn.com.  Music Credits:"Ice Flow" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 Licensehttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/Subscribe to our PodcastApple PodcastsSpotifyGoogle Podcasts   YouTube  Connect with us on Social MediaTwitter @thehvspn
