use the Hardy–Weinberg principle to calculate allele and genotype frequencies in populations and state the conditions when this principle can be applied (the two equations for the Hardy–Weinberg principle will be provided, as shown in the Mathematical requirements)

explain the relationship between genes, proteins and phenotype with respect to the: • TYR gene, tyrosinase and albinism • HBB gene, haemoglobin and sickle cell anaemia • F8 gene, factor VIII and haemophilia • HTT gene, huntingtin and Huntington’s disease

outline the advantages of genetic screening, using the examples of breast cancer (BRCA1 and BRCA2), Huntington’s disease and cystic fibrosis
