We have learned over a very long time that the chromosomes carry genes that determine who we are and what we look like. Some genes are dominate and some are recessive. A person with a widow's peak hair line shows a dominate gene for hair line. He may also carry a gene for "round" hair line but it is recessive and not seen.

What is chromosomes a theory?
Chromosomes are not a theory they are real structures visable under the microscope.
What is the theory that genes are located on your chromosomes?
It is not a theory, it is a provable fact.
What role do DNA and chromosomes play in heredity?
according to the chromosome theory of inheritance,genes are carried from parents to their offspring on chromosomes.
What is a molecule called that determines inherited traits?
Chromosomes carry the genes for inheritances and comprise of Nuclear DNA (nDNA) or Deoxyribonucleic acid strands of proteins
What structures carry genes to the offspring?
According to the chromosome theory of inheritance, genes are carried from parent to their offspring on chromosomes.
Who is the founder of chromosomal theory?
The founder of the chromosomal theory of inheritance is Walter Sutton, an American geneticist, who proposed that genes are located on chromosomes and that chromosomes are the basis of Mendelian inheritance.
What theory proposed in the early twentieth century which suggested that chromosomes carry genes called?
the chromosome theory of inheritance
The theory proposed in the early twentieth century which suggested that chromosomes carry genes is call what?
The Chromosome Theory Of Inheritance
How do Suttons observations about chromosome numbers support the chromosomes theory of inheritance?
The Sutton's observation about chromosomes number support the chromosomes theory of inheritance because according to Sutton each sex cell had half the number of chromosomes as a body cell, which means that the offspring gets one allele from pair from each parent.
What is Chromosomal Theory?
The chromosomal theory of inheritance states that genes are located on chromosomes and that the behavior of chromosomes during meiosis and fertilization accounts for inheritance patterns. This theory was proposed by Walter Sutton and Theodor Boveri in the early 20th century and provided a unifying explanation for Mendel's laws of inheritance.
What is the chromosome theory of inheritance?
(Was it really necessary to answer eleven times?) Chromosome theory is a principle of genetics. Known as the chromosome theory of inheritance, the principle is that all chromosomes are carriers of genetic material that pass from one generation to the next.The theory of inheritance was proposed independently by WALTER SUTTON and THEODORE BOVERIi) Since the sperm and egg cells provides the only bridge from one generation to another, all hereditary characters must be carried in themii) The hereditary factors are carried in the nucleusiii) Like the Mendelian alleles , chromosomes are also found in pairs.
Is it correct to say inheritances or inheritance?
The correct term would be "inheritance." "Inheritances" refer to multiple instances of receiving an inheritance.
