What else can I help you with?
What various types of genetic material in order from simplest to most complex?
nucleus → chromosome → gene
List these in order from smallest to largest chromosome gene cell?
Smallest to largest: Gene (a place on a chromosome); chromosome (there are 46 in human cells); and DNA (because it accounts for all the genetic material in a cell).
Why are traits controlled by recessive alleles on the X chromosome are more common in males than in females?
Males only have one X chromosome, so even if the gene on that chromosome is recessive there is no other gene that could dominate it. Females have two X chromosomes, so if the gene on that chromosome is recessive there is still a chance that the gene on the other chromosome could be dominate and override it.
What does it mean to say that a gene is linked to a chromosome?
When a gene is linked to a chromosome, it means that the gene is physically located on that chromosome. This means that the gene is inherited along with the chromosome it is located on, and may be inherited together with other nearby genes on the same chromosome.
Gene is it the same as a chromosome?
no, the gene is not actually the chromosome but a part of chormosome...
What name is given to the specific location of a gene on a chromosome?
The specific location of a gene on a chromosome is called it's locus.
Which is more complex chromosome or gene?
Chromosome is more complex than gene. Chromosomes contain multiple genes along with other regulatory elements, while genes are specific sequences of DNA that encode for proteins or RNA molecules. Chromosomes also play a role in organizing and packaging genes within the cell nucleus.
What chromosome is the HBB gene on?
The HBB gene, which codes for the beta globin protein, is located on chromosome 11.
Which chromosome contains the sex gene?
chromosome 1 chromosome 1
What is a sex linked gene?
It is a gene located on either sex chromosome (X or Y chromosome).
A segment of chromosome responsible for a particular characteristic?
DNA or genens these are the segments of the chromosome.
What gene is sex-linked?
It is a gene located on either sex chromosome (X or Y chromosome).
