Genetics in Our Lives: Passing on the Genetic Code

The video explains how genetic information is transferred from one generation to the next through the process of fertilization, where a sperm cell from the male parent fertilizes an egg cell from the female parent. This results in a new organism with a complete set of chromosomes, containing genetic information from both parents. The video also covers the importance of cell reproduction and DNA replication, which ensures that each new cell receives the same genetic material as the original cell, allowing for growth, repair, and normal body functions.
