All chromosomes consist of genes and non coding material. Animals with chromosomes arranged in the double helix pattern have two almost identical genes on the chromosomes opposite from the other. When those two genes in particular are discussed, they are called alleles. Frequently one is expressed and one is not, or one is dominant and the other is not.

What is the relationship between genes and alleles?
The gene loci are the sites where the alleles reside on the DNA strand. Alleles at the same gene locus on each chromosome pair will determine the phenotypic expression of that gene pair. Of course this explanation is incomplete when more complex interactions between alleles come into play
Alleles found on the same chromosomes are what?
Alleles are different versions of the same gene
Genes are located on structures called what?
The structures are called chromosomes.
What is the exchange of genes between homologous pairs of chromosomes?
homologous chromosomes exchange alleles during crossing over.
Organisms that have identical alleles for a particular trait are called?
There is no particular relationship between organisms that have identical alleles for a particular trait.
What did Walter sutton discover about the relationship between alleles and chromosomes?
Heredity

What is the relationship between chromatic and chromosomes?
The only relationship is the 'chrom', meaning 'color'
Different alleles of the same gene are found?
at the same place on homologous chromosomes source: Alleles of a gene reside at the same locus on homologous chromosomes.
Where is genetic information located in a cell?
Genetic information is the combining of alleles and their outcome. Chromosomes form alleles and chromosomes are formed inside of a cell.
What does sex linked alleles mean?
Sex linked genes occur only on the X or the Y sex chromosomes.
What does alleles always come in?
Alleles are generally inherited in pairs, except for alleles on the X and Y sex chromosomes in males.
Which of the pairs has a relationship that is most similar to the relationship between genes and chromosomes?
A recipe and a cookbook
