The inheritance of one trait does not affect the inheritance of another trait

The principle of independent assortment refers to the situation whereby the inheritance of one trait does not affect the inheritance of another trait. Traits are usually passed from one generation to anther through the genes.

What is a codon chart

The genetic code is a series of three bases in a row called a codon. Each codon represents and amino acid. For example, the DNA strand AAA-TCT would code for the amino acids lys-ser. You'll need a codon chart to find codons, which can be found online. Hope this helps ! [=

How are DNA samples similar to fingerprints

Because they are unique to each person for the most part. They both can be considered evidence when left at a crime scene.

How can you explain the inheritance of sex-linked traits

Sex- linked traits are those where the genes are found on the X and Y chromosomes. Colorblindness and male pattern baldness are the most well-known sex-link traits.

Women have two X chromosomes. Men have one X and one Y, but the Y chromosome has fewer genes than the X. These differences help account for different patterns of inheritance than non-sex-linked traits.

What happens right before RNA polymerase begins to work

The DNA double helix unwinds.

Which best describes a difference between transcription and DNA replication-

They use different nucleotide bases. DNA replication uses thymine. Transcription uses uracil

In a certain plant yellow leaves are dominant (Y) and red leaves are recessive (y). A plant with genotype Yy and a plant with YY are crossed. If they have four offspring how many would you predict wou

the answer is one!! (1) apex

Which is an example of codominance A. A person with blue eyes and a person with brown eyes mate and have a child with brown eyes. B. A sheep with white fur and a sheep with black fur mate and produce

An example of codominance would be a cow with red hair and a cow with white hair reproducing and have a cow with both red and white hair.
