What chromosomes has been determined to carry this gene in hemophilia?
the X chromosome
Example of a sexually influenced trait?
One example of a sexually influenced trait in humans would be haemophilia. The gene responsible for haemophilia is located on the X chromosome, and if a man receives a gene from his mother (men's X chromosomes always come from their mother) that is positive for this trait, he will exhibit haemophilia. Women must have two X chromosomes that are positive for haemophilia in order to exhibit the trait, because it is a recessive gene.
A trait which is inherited on sex chromosomes is?
Sex-linked traits have alleles that are passed from parent to child on a sex chromosome.
How many gene is present in one chromosomes?
A given gene is present on exactly two chromosomes in a somatic cell.
What type of chromosome always carry gene for the same trait at the same location on both chromosome?
homologous chromosomes
Is colorblindness a carried or dominant trait?
The gene is carried and the trait is almost entirely found in males.
Different alleles of the same gene are found?
at the same place on homologous chromosomes source: Alleles of a gene reside at the same locus on homologous chromosomes.
What is one difference between single gene trait and a polygenic trait?
Polygenic traits result in more variation because so many more alleles are involved in the process of reproduction.
