a gene is now defined as a region of DNA that can be expressed to produce a final functional product that is either a polypeptide or an RNA molecule. The reason for the change is that our definition before was too simple as it was (a gene codes for a polypeptide). check it out for yourself: Campbell Biology Ninth Edition chapter 17 page 347
What else can I help you with?
How can you prove that gene cloning is complete?
Gene cloning is considered complete when the gene of interest has been successfully inserted into a cloning vector, the vector has been introduced into a host organism, and the gene has been expressed. This can be validated by various methods such as DNA sequencing to confirm the presence of the gene, PCR to amplify the gene fragment, and protein expression assays to show functional protein production.
A gene that may not show up even though it is there is said to be-?
recessive. This means that the trait coded by the gene will only be expressed if an individual inherits two copies of the gene, one from each parent. If an individual only inherits one copy of the gene, the dominant gene will be expressed instead.
What gene indicates that yeasts and humans share a common ancestor?
The gene that indicates yeasts and humans share a common ancestor is the ribosomal RNA gene. This gene is highly conserved across different species and is used in phylogenetic studies to understand evolutionary relationships. By comparing the sequence of this gene in yeasts and humans, scientists have been able to demonstrate their shared ancestry.
What is putative gene?
a putative gene is a piece of DNA thought to be a gene based on sequence (ex. Open Reading Frame) but either the protein produced or the function of what is thought to be the expressed protein is not known
Why can a plant express a bacterial gene that has been added to its genome?
A plant can express a bacterial gene that has been added to its genome because plants have the ability to take up and incorporate foreign DNA into their own genetic material through a process called genetic engineering. This allows the plant to produce the protein encoded by the bacterial gene, which can confer new traits or characteristics to the plant.
How was the length of a standard meter redefined in the year 1983?

How was the meter redefined in 1866?
The Metric Act of 1866 redefined the meter in American terms as 39.37 inches.

How were the gender roles of white women reshaped and redefined during the Revolutionary era?

Why has gene therapy been successful in curing human genetic diseases in the past?
It eliminates the undesired gene and replaces it with a unaffected gene
What gmo or non gmo mean?
A non-GMO is an organism that has not been altered in a lab with a gene from an unrelated organism, such as corn that has been altered with a gene from a bacteria.
What gene does bipolar disorder happen in?
There is not a single gene responsible for bipolar disorder that has been identified.
How was the length of a meter redefined?
50 tds

Spina bifida has not been proven to derive from any one gene.
