What are organisms that have their genes altered called?
These organisms would be called mutants.
What is the term that identifies the genes present in an organism?
the genes can be called inheritable genes..
What can determine an organisms traits?
Genes are what determine an organisms physical traits.
Why do organisms with greater fitness generally leave more offspring than organisms that are less fit?
Because fitness means exactly that. The ability to survive and reproduce - pass on genes.
What is the organisms combination of alleles called?
The genes an organism contains is called the organism's genotype.
What are organisms that have their genes altered called?
These organisms would be called mutants.
What are an organisms traits called?
genes
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 an inherited trait that makes an individual different from other members of the same species and results from a mutation in the organisms genes called?
Variation
Cloning an individual usually produces organisms that?
contain identical genes
What is the term that identifies the genes present in an organism?
the genes can be called inheritable genes..
What organisms with two alleles are called?
Genes
What are individual of genes called?
alleles
Organisms that contain genes from other organisms are called?
A plant that contains a gene or genes from another organism that has been introduced artificially into the plant's genetic makeup is called a transgenetic plant. It is also called genetic engineering.
Changes in genes occur when organisms produce?
changes occure when organisms produce are called fertile offspring.
What is being selected in natural selection?
The individual, or the genes of the individual. All organisms are variants in phenotype and behavior. So, natural selection is the immediate environment these organisms are in and those that survive and reproduce better in this environment leave more descendants which carry the genes that promoted that survival and reproduction advantage. Then those genes are more represented in the populations gene pool and this is evolution.
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.
