No, alleles do not consist of many genes. An allele is a specific variant of a gene that occupies the same position on a chromosome as another variant of that gene. While a gene can have multiple alleles, each allele represents a single version of that gene, rather than a collection of multiple genes.
What else can I help you with?
What genes with different information at the same locus?
alleles
How many alleles are most commonly found in genes?
Most genes in diploid organisms typically have two alleles, one inherited from each parent. However, some genes can have multiple alleles in a population, leading to greater genetic diversity. For example, the ABO blood group system in humans has three common alleles (A, B, and O). Ultimately, while two alleles are standard for an individual gene, the total number of alleles can vary widely within a population.
The two or more related genes that control a trait are known as?
alleles
How many lethal genes would the typical human have if the alleles were homozygous?
A typical human would have around 1-2 lethal genes if homozygous for lethal alleles. Lethal genes are usually rare in the human population due to the negative impact on survival and reproduction.
What are different genes for same trait?
Alleles
How alleles and genes related?
Genes and alleles are related because alleles are inside a gene. Genes are made up by alleles. A gene is DNA. The allele is like piece of DNA inside a gene.
What are contrasting forms of genes called?
Alleles
What are the alleles of a gene?
That depends on the gene: some genes have only a few alleles, some genes have hundreds or even thousands of alleles.
What genes with different information at the same locus?
alleles
What are the multiple forms of genes called?
Alleles are genes that exist in multiple forms.
What is the relationship between alleles and chromosomes?
All chromosomes consist of genes and non coding material. Animals with chromosomes arranged in the double helix pattern have two almost identical genes on the chromosomes opposite from the other. When those two genes in particular are discussed, they are called alleles. Frequently one is expressed and one is not, or one is dominant and the other is not.
What are traits of alleles are controlled by?
genes
What are individual of genes called?
alleles

What are the different formes of genes called?
Alleles are forms of genes for a trait.
Different forms of a gene are called?
different form of genes are called allele
