What is the difference between a gene allele Chromosome and trait?
Alleles are alternate versions of genes that code for certain phenotypes, or traits. The traits of an individual are a result of the interaction between their genotype (alleles) and the environment.
If a trait is not inherited what else might cause it?
If there is a trait that one gets but is not inherited if could just be a recessive trait from a past generation that was skipped Or it could be that that person ect. is special
What do you call one set of instuctions for an inherited trait?
genes
What is a trait that is expressed even if only one gene for that form of the trait is inherited?
It is a dominant trait. You only need one gene of a dominant trait for that trait to be expressed. You need two copies of the recessive trait in order for the trait to be expressed.
What is one set of instructions for an inherited trait?
The gametes (sex cells) that combine to form a new organism in sexual reproduction each contain one set of the instructions for the genes of the new organism, that is, one set each for each trait.
Is a scar a trait?
A scar is not a trait because a trait is something inherited from one generation to the next. A scar comes from something you inflict upon yourself.
When the trait has more two alleles how is the trait inherited?
One parent has a recessive trait. For example: One parent has blood type AB, the other has blood type OO.
Name one sex linked trait and describe how it is inherited?

When a trait has more than two alleles is that trait inherited?
If one parent has a dominant trait and and another parent has a recessive trait, then the recessive trait gets hidden while the dominant trait gets shown.
What is the difference between a single gene and a polygenics trait?
A polygenic trait is a trait in which multiple sets of alleles are used to determine the trait, whereas in a single gene trait aka. a Mendelian trait, only one pair of alleles is used.
How can you get ALD?
ALD can be inherited as an autosomal recessive trait (requiring two alleles, one from each parent) and as an X-linked trait.
