A diploid organism contains how many copies of each gene?
2
Gene cloning is an efficient way to produce many copies of a specific DNA sequence?
True
What term describes an individual with two copies of the same allele?
The individual with two of the same allele is "homozygous" for a trait.
Inserting working copies of a gene directly into the cells of a person with a genetic disorder is called what?
Gene TherapyGenetic disorders are caused by an abnormality in person's DNA.
For a gene with its locus on the X chromosome what term do you use to describe a male that only has one copy of this gene?
Hemizygous - has 1/1 copy of the allele Heterozygous - has 1/2 copies of the alleleHomozygous - has 2/2 copies of the allele
How many copies of a recessive gene does it take to overpower a dominant gene?
It takes 8 copies of a recessive gene to overpeower dominant gene
How many copies of the beta globin gene do people have?
Most individuals have two normal copies of the beta globin gene
How many copies of each gene are in a gamete?
One.
How many copies of each gene are there on autosome?
8
How many copies of each gene do you have?
Humans typically have two copies of each gene, one inherited from each parent. This pairing of genes allows for genetic diversity and a variety of possible gene combinations. Some genes may have multiple copies or variations, but in general, humans have two copies of most genes.
A diploid organism contains how many copies of each gene?
2
A transgenic organism that has extra copies of a gene produces more of RNA the that is coded for by the gene?
A transgenic organism that has extra copies of a gene produces more of the DNA that is coded for by that gene
What is gene cloning?
The production of multiple copies of a single gene.
Gene cloning is an efficient way to produce many copies of a specific DNA sequence?
True
What is a technique where bad copies of genes are replaced with good copies called?
gene therapy
What are the two base color genes for horse?
The base color is black/red factors, controlled by the Extension gene. A horse with one or two copies of the Extension gene (Ee or EE) will have black factors. A horse with no copies of the Extension gene (ee) will be chestnut.The Agouti gene acts on the Extension gene by limiting where the black factors are displayed, into points such as the legs, mane, tail, muzzle, and ears. A horse with at least one copy of the Extension gene that doesn't not have a copy of the Agouti gene will be black, provided that no other gene modify the color. One or two copies of the Agouti gene in combination with the Extension gene will result in a bay horse. A chestnut horse (no copies of the Extension gene) can have copies of the Agouti gene, but it will not affect the horse's color, as the horse has no black factors for the Agouti gene to limit.
What causes genetic disorder when a gene what?
over copies
