For each of the following genetic topics, indicate whether it focuses on transmission genetics, molecular genetics, or population genetics. a. Analysis of pedigrees to determine the probability of someone inheriting a trait. b. Study of people on a small island to determine why a genetic form of asthma is prevalent on the island c. Effect of nonrandom mating on the distribution of genotypes among a group of animals d. Examination of the nucleotide sequences found at the ends of chromosomes e. Mechanisms that ensure a high degree of accuracy in DNA replication f. Study of how the inheritance of traits encoded by genes on sex chromosomes (sex-linked traits) differs from the inheritance of traits encoded by genes on non-sex chromosomes (autosomal traits)
