    processes by which genetic information is transferred and regulated

    Genetic mechanisms refer to the processes by which genetic information is transferred, expressed, and regulated within an organism. This includes DNA replication, transcription, translation, and gene regulation, which collectively determine how traits are inherited and how cells function. Understanding these mechanisms is crucial for studying genetic disorders, including those that affect hair growth and lead to conditions like alopecia.
