What else can I help you with?
Genes that cause abnormal development and the death of an individual are called?
Genes that cause abnormal deveolpment and the death of an individual are called? lethal genes
What is a group of individual organisms that have exactly the same set of genes called?
clone- group of indivdual organisms that have exactly the same genes
What are the functional units of hereditary called?
Functional units of heredity are called genes. Genes are segments of DNA that contain instructions for building proteins, which determine an individual's traits and characteristics.
Genes that are not expressed if a dominant gene is present are called?
Recessive genes. These genes are only observed when an individual inherits two copies of the recessive allele.
Why are some genes are called dominant?
cause they can fool bi**
What are individual versions of genes called?
Individual versions of genes are called alleles. Alleles are variations of a gene that can result in different traits or characteristics in an organism. Each individual inherits two alleles for each gene, one from each parent.
What is the complete set genes of an individual?
The complete set of genes in an individual is called the genome. It is the entire genetic material present in an organism, consisting of DNA sequences that encode the instructions for building and maintaining that individual's cells and tissues. The human genome consists of about 20,000-25,000 genes.
What is An individual and actual genetic make-up is called the?
An individual's actual genetic make-up is called their genotype. It refers to the specific combination of genes that an individual carries in their DNA, which determines their unique genetic characteristics.
The set of characteristics that an individual develops due to the combined influence of genes and environment is called a?
Phenotype.
Are like the words that make up the books of instructions called chromosomes?
Chromosomes are structures within cells that contain our genetic information in the form of DNA. They are not like individual words in a book, but rather more comparable to the entire book itself. Each chromosome contains many genes, which are like individual instructions that help determine our traits.
A gene that is not expressed when paired with a dominant allele is called?
A recessive gene. These genes are masked by dominant genes when they are present together in an individual's genetic makeup.
What are the particular genes present in an indivial called?
The particular set of genes present in an individual is referred to as their genotype. Genes are specific segments of DNA that provide the instructions for various traits and characteristics in an organism. Each individual inherits their genotype from their parents through the process of genetic transmission.
