Where is genetic information located in a cell?
Genetic information is the combining of alleles and their outcome. Chromosomes form alleles and chromosomes are formed inside of a cell.
What is a cell called when it has 2 identical allies?
A cell with two identical alleles for a particular gene is called homozygous. This means that both copies of the gene, one inherited from each parent, are the same. For example, if the alleles are for a trait like flower color, a homozygous cell could have two alleles for purple flowers. In contrast, a cell with two different alleles for a gene is called heterozygous.
Who gives alleles?
Organisms inherit their alleles from their parents. In sexual reproduction, the alleles are usually inherited from two parents. In asexual reproduction, the alleles are inherited from a single cell and are genetically identical to the parent.
When two different alleles occur in a cell?
A heterozygous condition.
What is A cell produced by the union of gametes carrying identical alleles?
a zygote
How many alleles are found in the gamete cell?
10
How many alleles are found in every cell's nucleus?
99999999999999999
How many alleles does a zygote have for each trait?
No - some traits are polygenetic (such as for skin color, eye color, hair color, etc.) and will have multiple alleles.
How many alleles are there for a trait in a sex cell?
An allele is one form of a gene. Alleles separate into separate sex cells during meiosis.

What stores genetic information and controls activities in the cell?
alleles
The alleles are carried by what inside the nucleus?
The alleles are carried by the genes found inside the nucleus of a cell. The gene is the basic unit of heredity.
How is sickle cell alleles maintained through natural selection?
Heterozygous induviduals pass the dominant and recessive alleles to offspring
What is hmozygous?
A cell is said to be homozygous for a particular gene when identical alleles of the gene are present on both homologous chromosomes. For example, if the alleles are AA or aa the cell is homologous for that trait. It is heterozygous if it is Aa
