The information in the genetics unit I best understood was the concept of Mendelian genetics and the inheritance of traits. I found it relatively straightforward to grasp the concepts of dominant and recessive alleles, Punnett squares, and the probability of inheriting certain traits.

The topic that was most challenging for me to understand was the molecular mechanisms of DNA replication and gene expression. I struggled with comprehending the processes of transcription and translation, as well as the role of enzymes such as polymerases and ribosomes. Additionally, understanding the regulation of gene expression and how specific genes are turned on or off was quite difficult for me to grasp.
