it uses the techniques of cytology and microscopy to study chromosomes and their relationship to hereditary traits - it uses the techniques of biochemistry to study DNA structure and function - it studies the entire DNA endowment of an individual and how it influences health and disease - it deals with parent-offpsring and larger family relationships to discern and predict patterns of inheritance within a family
• Mendelian genetics = it deals with parent-offspring and larger family relationships to discern and predict patterns of inheritance within a family line
• cytogenetics = it uses the techniques of cytology and microscopy to study chromosomes and their relationship to hereditary traits
• molecular genetics = it uses the techniques of biochemistry to study DNA structure and function
• genomic medicine = it studies the entire DNA endowment of an individual and how it influences health and disease
