Definition

Etymology
The phrase "the genetic analysis" combines "genetic," derived from the Greek word 'genesis' meaning origin or birth, and "analysis," from the Greek 'analusis' meaning a breaking up or loosening. Together, they describe the process of breaking down genetic material to study its components. Did you know the study of genetics began gaining prominence in the early 20th century after Gregor Mendel's pioneering work was rediscovered?
