Are hox genes found in bacteria?
Hox genes are a hallmark of multicellular life and are not found in bacteria. Hox genes are just one type of a larger family of gene called "homeobox genes" (watch out, they sound similar!). Bacteria have genes that resemble homeobox genes (Kant et al. 2002) but they're only distantly related to those in multicellular life (Derelle, 2007), and definitely don't have Hox genes. Both plants and animals have homeobox genes, including the subset called Hox genes. The homeobox genes were first found in the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster and have subsequently been identified in many other species, from insects to reptiles and mammals.Homeobox genes were previously only identified in bilateria but recently cnidaria have also been found to contain homeobox domains and the "missing link" in the evolution between the two has been identified.Homeobox genes have even been found in fungi, for example the unicellular yeasts, and in plants.But no evidence of hox genes are found in bacteria
How many genes are typically found in a chromosome?
Typically, a chromosome contains hundreds to thousands of genes.
Where are most sex-linked genes in humans typically found?
Most sex-linked genes in humans are typically found on the X and Y chromosomes.
Which type of inheritance involves genes found on the non-autosomal chromosomes?
These are called sex linked genes since they are on the genes that code for sex.
What are found on chromosomes and control traits?
Genes are found on chromosomes and they control traits by providing instructions for the production of proteins which determine various characteristics in an organism. Each gene carries specific information that influences an individual's physical and biological traits.
Where can genes be found in the body?
Genes are found on the DNA, which is located in the nucleus.
Where are the genes that determine gender found?
The genes that determines gender can be found in the Y chromosome.
Where are most sex linked genes are found in?
Most sex-linked genes are found on the X chromosome
Genes found on the x and y chromosomes are often called?
sex-linked genes
Where is the hereditary found in the cell?
the genes
What is hereditary information found in?

Genes are found on which part of a cell?
Genes can be found in chromosomes. The cell nucleus of almost every cell contains chromosomes and genes. They contain the DNA and the gene shows as a section of the DNA.

Are genes found only in animals?
No, genes are found in all living organisms, including animals, plants, bacteria, and fungi. Genes are units of heredity that contain instructions for building and maintaining an organism.
How many genes are typically found in a chromosome?
Typically, a chromosome contains hundreds to thousands of genes.
How many genes are found in chromosomes?
about 25,000
