What specific chromosome affects white lion mutation is not common knowledge right now, however this condition is called Leucism, and is caused by the presence of two recessive alleles for pigmentation, with the abscense of a dominant allele to give the lion any color. The recessive alleles in the DNA of the lion's cells are incapable of producing pigmentation. During the transcription of the DNA to RNA, it is probable that the DNA has an extra nitrogen base (Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine, Guanine) or missing a nitrogen base, or one of the bases is different (mutated from the original base (IE Adenine with Cytosine)). Due to this mutation, when RNA is produced for skin cells, the mutation makes the codons which bond to the RNA in the Ribosome different, making a mutated skin cell protein.
There is nothing "special" about white tigers, it is a mutation at birth.
White tigers are the same as normal tigers, their genes just had some type of mutation.
The white eyed flies that resulted from the crossing of the red-eye flies were all male as the gene involved was on the X chromosome. The X chromosome is the male chromosome.
White lions are just like regular lions. The only thing about them that is different is their genetic mutation or their genes which is why they are white.
The White Lion is a mutation from the South African Kruger Lion, it is a subspecies not a species on its own :)
Yes, that is correct.
The correlation between the trait of the white eye color and the male sex of the affected F2 flies; there were no corresponding allele present on the Y chromosome.
It is a mutation of genetic genes.
yes, the most common mutation is the white tiger, the white tiger is a strange mutation of the Bengal tiger,as for others, some are born while the mother was sitting, therefore, they have a deformed face, some sort of mutation, BUT, i have not herd of any other mutation.

White tigers exist, but only as a mutation to the species.... SIBEIA and INDIA and other SOUTH ASIAN countries are the home to tigers[includes the white]. White tiger mutation occurs more in INDIA.

The postwar boom of the 1950s affected many white Americans by causing them to move out of the cities and into suburban developments. Many people held "white collar" jobs and moved away from farming.
A normal human white blood cell has 46 chromosomes.
A macrophage is a type of white blood cell; it is not a chromosome.
Yes. White tigers have a mutation in their genes that makes them white, and they are the offspring of siberian tigers and bengal tigers.
The neutral mutation of the penguin is actually very rare. It is considered a one in a zillion mutation. The penguin would appear completely black. Most penguins would be black with a white oval on its stomach, this one on the other hand is black without a white oval on its stomach.
