. What is variation?
The differences between individuals
of the same species are called
variation. These differences may be
the result of genetic differences, the
influence of the environment, or a
combination of genetic and
environmental influences.

Genetic variation
1 3
Genetic differences reflect the
genotype of an organism, that is, its
genetic make-up. A diploid organism
has two sets of chromosomes and two
forms (alleles) of each particular gene.
2 Phenotypic variation:
continuous and
discontinuous
discontinuous variation, the
differences are discrete (separate)
and clear cut: they do not merge into
each other. In continuous variation,
differences are slight and grade into
each other.
Mutations: more variation
The ultimate source of inherited
variations is mutations. A mutation
is a change in the amount or the
chemical structure of DNA.

Chromosome mutations can happen during
mitosis and meiosis when chromosomes
are being condensed and pulled apart.
Chromosome mutations also occur during
interphase when DNA replicates, and
during crossing over when sections of
chromosomes are exchanged
Down's Syndrome
And Genetic
Screening
Down's syndrome: trisomy 21
Down's syndrome is the most common
single cause of learning disability in
children of school age.
Genetic screening:
amniocentesis and
chorionic villus sampling
● Genetic screening refers to procedures used to
examine an individual for the presence of a
genetic disease or disorder. The most widely
available genetic screening procedure for
Down's syndrome is amniocentesis

Amniocentesis
Amniocentesis is usually carried out
at 15-16 weeks of pregnancy. It
involves passing a very fine needle
into the uterus, observed with an
ultrasound image, and withdrawing a
sample of amniotic fluid containing
fetal cells.
Genetic
counselling
Genetic screening should be
followed by genetic counselling,
the giving of advice and
information about the risks of a
genetic disease and its outcome.
