Are homozygous and homologous the same?
Homologous: pair of chromosomes that are the same Homozygous: alleles of a gene pair are the same
What describes corresponding chromosomes?
Corresponding chromosomes refer to a pair of chromosomes in which one chromosome is inherited from the mother and the other from the father. They have the same genes at the same positions, known as loci, but may have different alleles for those genes. Corresponding chromosomes are also known as homologous chromosomes.
What is the difference between a homozygous and a heterozygous organism?
homozygous organism is one which possess same genes on their chromosome pair for instance C which represent colour blindness it will be present on both the x chromosomes of a female.
True or false in humans each pair of the 22 maternal autosomes has a homologous paternal chromosome?
False, A haploid organism only has one set of chromosomes, so it has no homologous chromosomes.
When a pair of chromosomes contains different alleles for a trait that trait is called a what when a trait has two identical alleles it is called?
2 different alelles - heterozygous Same alelles - homozygous
Are homozygous and homologous the same?
Homologous: pair of chromosomes that are the same Homozygous: alleles of a gene pair are the same
What is a pair of corresponding chromosomes called?
Homologous
What is a homologous chromosone?
A pair of chromosomes that have corresponding gene sequences.
Word describing the two chromosomes in a pair that have genes that code for the same trait?
Homozygous.
What describes corresponding chromosomes?
Corresponding chromosomes refer to a pair of chromosomes in which one chromosome is inherited from the mother and the other from the father. They have the same genes at the same positions, known as loci, but may have different alleles for those genes. Corresponding chromosomes are also known as homologous chromosomes.
Having a pair of alleles the same is called?
A pair of alleles which are the same are said to be homozygous.
What is the pair of AAA genotype?
homozygous? homozygous? homozygous dominant
When will homozygous gene be expressed?
A cell can be described as being homozygous for a particular gene when there are identical genes on a pair of chromosomes (humans have 23 pairs). Under these conditions, we would see the expression of the gene under the homozygous condition. If the cell had a heterozygous condition, then there would not be identical genes found in the chromosome pair.
Homologous chromosomes is terms of the number of genes and the type of genes they have?
Homologous chromosomes are pairs of chromosomes (one from the female and one from the male), each of which contains genes which correspond to the genes on the other chromosome in the pair. For example, if a chromosome contains a gene for eye color, the corresponding chromosome will also have a gene for eye color in the same place.
If two allels are identical the pair is?
It is called Homozygous.
What is the difference between a homozygous and a heterozygous organism?
homozygous organism is one which possess same genes on their chromosome pair for instance C which represent colour blindness it will be present on both the x chromosomes of a female.
True or false reassortment of chromosomes can occur during meiosis by crossing over or by independent segregation of homologous chromosomes?
Independent assortment occurs when each pair of chromosomes segregates independently?
