Some alleles are neither dominant or recessive and many traits are controlled by what?

Each person has two alleles of one particular gene, which controls one particular characteristic, such as a person's blood group. An allele may be either dominant, recessive, or codominant. A dominant allele would dominate the other allele in the chromosomes, meaning only the dominant allele would contribute to an organism's characteristics. An example of this is the A blood group, which is dominant to the O allele. However, if an individual has both A and B alleles, A and B are codominant, as they both exhibit effects on an organism's characteristics (the blood group). This results in an AB blood group - a combination of the effects of two genes!


What are the effects of decaying materials to human health?

That's not answerable because you do not specify anything. The effects you ask very much depend on the identity and nature of the materials, their quantity, the nature of their decay and of any by-products, the objective hazards they pose intact and in decaying, the state of any necessary storage etc., and the exposure of people to those hazards.

Describe the 3 ways in which hormones can interact?

1. Synergistic effects in which two or more hormones act together to produce an effect that is greater than the sum of their separate effects. 2. Permissive effects in which one hormone enhances the target organ's response to a second hormone that is secreted later. 3. Antagonistic effects in which one hormone opposes the action of another. For example, insulin lowers blood glucose level and glucagon raises it.
