The color of your eyes, are written in your genes.
Heredity is the study of the inheritance of genes.
most people in my family have a gene that makes them tall
The plant is a hybrid created by splicing genes from wheat and tobacco.
Genes control the synthesis of proteins.
Linked genes are genes located close together on the same chromosome, and they tend to be inherited together. For example, if genes for flower color and plant height are linked on the same chromosome, they are likely to be inherited together rather than independently.
A genotype is a group of genes that influence a given trait, whereas a phenotype in this case would be that trait. An example of a sentence using the word "genotype" is "The different genes you inherit from your parents make up the genotype that determines your eye color. "
The genes present on same chromosomes are sometimes linked to each other that inherit collectively are linked genes and can be separated by crossing over
All of us have genes
All our genes together are known as our 'genome'.
Human Genes
Biologists use the term "regulator genes" for trait-controllers. These genes control the activity of other genes, influencing the development and expression of specific traits in an organism.
Crossing over is the exchanging of genes in a homologous pair.
