Genetic analysis

Genetic analysis involves studying an organism's DNA—the instruction manual that determines traits like eye color, height, or health predispositions. Scientists examine specific sections of DNA to identify differences or mutations, helping understand genetic diseases, ancestry, or traits. Techniques include sequencing, which reads the entire genetic code, and targeted tests focusing on particular genes. This analysis provides insights into how genes function, interact, and influence health, enabling better diagnosis, personalized medicine, and understanding of biological relationships.
