How does a gene affect the traits of himan?
Recessive and dominant genes are the material that carries the traits of human beings. Traits of humans such as eye and hair color are determined by the combination of genes from your parents.
Are human limb mutations dominant or recessive?
Human limb mutations can be either dominant or recessive, depending on the specific gene involved. Typically, mutations that cause limb abnormalities are rare and can be caused by mutations in either dominant or recessive genes. Dominant mutations require only one copy of the mutated gene to be expressed, while recessive mutations require both copies to be mutated for the trait to be expressed.
How many of the offspring are homozygous?
When you say homozygous, you're talking about genes. It's almost impossible, or not known, if a human has had genes of all homozygousity.
What would happen if you did not have any genes?
If you did not have any genes, it would mean you did not have any genetic material to provide instructions for building proteins or regulating cellular functions. Without genes, you would not be able to develop or survive, as genes are essential for all biological processes in living organisms.
Is it possible for a cow to become pregnant if sexually abuse by a human?
No, because the food that they eat is not healthy for a human baby,the baby would never survive if it was produced, and they do not have the structural genes to create a human baby
How many genes are there in a human cells?
The human genome contains about 24,000 genes.
How many genes account for human height?
55 orthologous genes are associated with human height
How many genes does the average human possess?
The average human possesses around 20,000 to 25,000 genes.
How many genes are present in human body?
There are estimated to be 26000 genes after completing the human genome project.
The use of genetic engineering to transfer human genes into bacteria?
This results in bacteria expressing human proteins or genes.
Has all human genes been identified and named?
Most, but not all human genes have been identified and named.
How are recessive trait inherited?
What is the relationship between dominant and recessive traits? Think of it this way-- A dominant gene will suppress the expression of a recessive gene. A dominant trait is the expressed result of an organism having either one dominant and one recessive gene for that trait, OR two dominant genes for that trait. For example, brown eye color is normally dominant over blue. A recessive trait is the expressed result of having two recessive genes. For example, you need two recessive genes to get blue eyes. Each parent contributes one gene for each trait. If a parent carries a recessive gene for blue and a dominant gene for brown, that parent will have brown eyes, but can contribute either gene to a child. If the other parent has the same, the child could have two brown eyed parents but have blue eyes. Eye color is a visible trait, but each gene location can be or contribute to a trait not visible to the eye. For example, the genetic disposition to ovarian cancer is not something we can see without genetic testing. A recessive gene can be inherited and remain silent for generations, waiting to pair up with another recessive to be expressed. The knowledge that this does occur is one of the reasons why genetic testing is recommended before having children. There are so-called lethal genes that are recessive and only become problematic when they meet up with another. I know I have simplified things here, but I hope that gets to the core of your question. I recommended taking a look at the OMIM.org website to appreciate how complex this really is. That the unraveling of the miracle of the human genome has been accomplished during the last decade is truly wonderful.
