Complementation | MIT 7.01SC Fundamentals of Biology

[@user-ez3ks7mo1x]

the knitting analogy is the best way to explain complementation testing. Brilliant

[@behappytoday3031]

thank u so much i'm korean student i studied this in 2days, but i did't understand nothing in internet can help me finally i found this video and undetstood. thank u so much thank u robert

[@rajeetharajendran7470]

moral of the story: don't share needles

[@jalenandrew2387]

Lmao I literally came down here to write the exact same thing. Well played.

[@thomasborders2919]

Robert seems chill

[@rebecca_perry]

This made SO MUCH SENSE!! The knitting example helped me so much!! Thank you!!

[@_Kim_Possible]

That knitting analogy was pretty fire actually made me understand the topic more

[@strawberrywhip911]

That knitting analogy is actually very helpful. Thanks! :)

[@MeMe-qv6ho]

Robert is a badass

[@Oodlenoots]

+Arsènal FC No he's not! He has no yarn!

[@tr333nd]

Captain Robert

[@thomasmatthew7759]

Robert is a chiller.

[@alice_in_woanderland]

Brilliant example !!! It's just that to make it complete, we can add: " ... it's just like you can't knit with only yarn and no needles", following the example of "with only needles and no yarn." :)

[@Rabiecakes]

Omg, THANK YOU! Makes perfect sense now. Love the knitting example :)

[@Uenbg]

And now do "Fun with Flags"!

[@gautamgupta3610]

I see.. What you did there🤣

[@oxmosaic]

Very insightful from the start already. Thanks Genevieve :)

[@mikaipopo]

thank you so much! if only my TAs can explain it as short and as straight forward as this.

[@kuruptgt]

THANK YOU Robert!

[@rogeliomaya4045]

Love you Robert

[@BeautifulSkull]

Awesome example, cleared up complementation for me

[@tulipke6456]

I will remember the knitting pathway for sure.

[@MrUncleTings]

lol how many reshoots did you need? seems like it would have been a giggle fest

[@Sweldawg]

Thanks Robert x

[@thepickleaffliction]

Yes, this cleared it up for me as well. Thank you. But you shouldn't share needles. It spreads diseases.

[@ariabaria1072]

this video really helped me understand the concept! Thank youuu :))

[@shawnhill1386]

Great explanation.

[@arpita8285]

OMG THANK YOUUU my genetics exam is tmrrow morning and this is so confusing

[@chatalola96]

Awesome, thank you so much for posting this! Really helped me :)

[@jessicawhite6369]

Haha. You guys are awesome! Thank you for posting your videos!

Thank you (:

[@tryingMyBestToday]

A+ example

[@camagnesio]

Thaaaanks :)

[@brainbook3035]

still you play with each other with needles

[@Adam-lt4fx]

This apology of knitting isn't really the case though because if the mutations are in the same gene it means there are no functional copies in the offspring whereas if the mutations are in different genes there is one functional version still for each gene in the offspring. Its more like one of you having both needle and yarn and the other having nothing (complementation) or you both having nothing (non-complementation)

[@faviorc2]

Jesus Christ what a wonderful example

[@jakeroosenbloom]

Hello female Sean Carroll

[@evolvedone3493]

So you guys are two chromosomes?
