Is a gene a genotype that is not mixed?
No. A gene is a part of the DNA that identifies the outcome of a certain trait or part of a trait. A genotype is the actual definition of the gene for each individual.
Through gene expression the messages encoded in the DNA contained in a cell direct the cells activity Which of the following sentences best defines gene expression?
Gene expression is the activation of a gene that results in the formation of a protein.
What is a different form of gene?
The answer is an allele. I hope your not cheating on a fill-in-the blank biology worksheet. ;) It's alright. That's why I changed this because it said, "Your mom". That's not the right answer.
A change in gene frequency in a population over time is a foundation of biological evolution true or false?
True. That is the definition of evolution.
Which best describes the relationship between genes and proteins?
Basically, one gene gives the instructions for making one protein. I'm not sure how much detail you want, here, but a gene is a segment of DNA and the sequence of bases in the DNA determine the sequence of amino acids that make up the protein.
Which answer best explains why the discovery of alternative splicing forced biologists to change their definition of a gene?
It showed that a gene can direct the production of more than one polypeptide or RNA.
What is the definition of microbial genetics?
it is the study of gene and gene function in micro organisms.
What is the definition of the word intron?
The definition of the 'intron' is part of the DNA sequence within a gene. It is the sequence within a particular gene that is removed during the RNA splicing process.
What is a homozygus?
When two cells have the same gene type then they are considered homozygous.
What is the definition of locus?
The particular site where a gene is found on a chromosome.
Why is a son who receives the allele for combinations from his mother always colorblind?
Since the mother would be considered a carrier, the gene will be produced in the offspring. the son will receive that gene and will be colorblind.
What gene is being researched for its possible connection to Marfan syndrome?
Researchers in molecular biology are currently investigating the FBNI gene.
A short and simple definition of gene?
A gene is a part of the chromosome what is linked to your DNA it carries the proteins which make you, you! Factors that control traits.
What is the definition of candidate gene testing?
A candidate gene is a probable cause for a disease. The gene can become a candidate based it's location is a chromosome region that is suspected of being the loci.
What is the Irish for Gene?
Eoghan is considered to be equivalent.
Is a gene located on an X or Y chromosome considered to be sex-linked?
Yes, a gene located on the X or Y chromosome is considered to be sex-linked.
Is Huntington's Disease a gene mutation?
No, it's caused by a single point mutation of a gene.
