What else can I help you with?
What are sexlinked genes?
Genes that are location on the sex chromosomes.
How many genes are typically found in a chromosome?
Typically, a chromosome contains hundreds to thousands of genes.
Which chromosomes carries the fewest numbers of genes?
The y chromosome, which only contains a few hundred genes.
Each chromosome usually contains multiple genes true or false?
Can each chromosome usually contain multiple genes? yes each chromosome usually contains more than one gene.
What chromosome contains sex-linked genes?
X and Y
What is the relationship between the genes and chromosomes?
There are thousands of genes in a chromosome.
What do you call the rod-shaped structure that contains hundreds of genes?
Chromosome
Why does the y chromosome not carry any alleles?
The Y chromosome is smaller than the X chromosome and contains fewer genes. It carries the genes necessary for determining male sex and some other genes, but it lacks many of the genes present on the X chromosome. This is why the Y chromosome does not carry any alleles in the same way that the X chromosome does.
Which chromosome contains sex linked genes?
Both X and Y chromosomes i.e. Allosome 23rd pair contains sex linked genes.
The Y chromosome is larger and carries fewer genes than the X chromosome?
No. The Y chromosome is much smaller than the X chromosome. There are only about 70 active genes on the Y chromosome and many more deleteriously mutated one. The X chromosome contains many more active genes and only crosses over marginally with the Y chromosome.
What is the structure inside the nuclus that contains genes?
The structure inside the nucleus that contains genes is called the chromosome. Chromosomes are thread-like structures made of DNA and protein that carry genetic information in the form of genes. Each chromosome contains many genes that determine an organism's traits and characteristics.
A chromosome contains many genes that are transcribed into different what?
A chromosome contains many genes that are transcribed into different RNA molecules. These RNA molecules can serve as templates for protein synthesis or have other functions in the cell.
