Genetics also deals with inbron diffrencess between fairly similar related organisms. Genes are carriers of character and present on chromosolmes. Mendal is considered as father of genetics.
In genertic engineering various technique used. there are
(i) Pedigrce analysis
(ii) Population genetics
(iii) study of twins
(iv) Karyo type
(v) cells culture
All are known as genetic engineering.
