What does a gene do in a organism?
A gene has all the traits of the organism
What is similar about gene and allele?
An allele is all the possibilities for a gene, a gene is what a living thing has. They are the same thing as far as i am concerned but I'm sure someone else out there can answer this better than I. Regards Arezoth
Do all versions of each gene always get expressed in an organism?
No, only dominant traits will be expressed.
How does DNA determine the traits of an organism?
DNA contains the genes that determine the traits of an organism. Not all the DNA is in gene form but in what some people call "junk DNA". It has been shown by some that even that is important in the individual.
What are the traits produced by an organisms genes?
All inherited traits are a product of the organism's genes.
What is the traits produced by an organism's genes?
A genotype is the entire genetic make up of an organism. The phenotype is the actual expressed traits or characteristics found within an organism. The distinction between genotype and phenotype can be made based on dominant and recessive genes.
Where are genes found inside of your cells?
A gene is a unit of heredity in a living organism. It is normally a stretch of DNA that codes for a type of protein or for an RNA chain that has a function in the organism. All proteins and functional RNA chains are specified by genes. All living things depend on genes. Genes hold the information to build and maintain an organism's cells and pass genetic traits to offspring.
Are genes are responsible for all the traits of an organism.?
no they are not.
The characteristics of an organism are called?
the physical characteristic of an organism is called its phenotype
What is it called when an organism has genes that are different for a trait?
Well every gene in the human genome codes for something different. The fact that variety exists is determined by the alleles of that gene. The human genome has over 35,000 genes that all work together to form a persons genotype. Observable features are an organisms phenotype and those are composed of different traits, i.e. eye color, hair color, certain behaviors. All of these are also coded for by specific genes.
Do all new traits help organism?
False
Is a gene all of an organism's DNA or only a segment of DNA?
A gene is a portion on a chromosome. It is not the entire DNA which codes for all you see in an individual.
