How does genes effect the whole organism?
The genes affect the whole organism because your genes are in your DNA and in every cell there is 23 pairs of chromosomes so you are what you are from your genes and DNA. Genes code for the proteins in your cells. Your proteins do nearly everything in your cells. Therefore the genes you have determine how you function at a cellular level. In terms of chromosomes, they are your DNA wrapped very tightly around protein clusters called histones.
Homologous chromosomes are similar in all of these characteristics EXCEPT?
Homologous chromosomes are similar in terms of size, shape, and genes, but they are not similar in terms of the specific alleles they carry. Each homologous chromosome may carry different alleles for the same gene, leading to genetic diversity.
Chromosomes of a pair of homologous chromosomes may differ from other chromosomes in terms of?
Homologous chromosomes are similar in size, shape, and genetic content. They may differ from other chromosomes in the genome in terms of the specific alleles they carry at corresponding gene loci. These differences in allele sequences can result in variations in traits or genetic disorders.
What are phenotype and genotype and what terms that describe them?
A very easy way to remember these two terms is: phenotype is what you see and genotype is what is in the genes. You may have B blood type (what to see) but you could have BB or BO (what is in your genes.
How are the terms gene pool and allele frequency related?
total no of diversity of plants is equal to total no of genes

What is the difference between a gene and a transcript in terms of their functions and structures?
Genes are segments of DNA that contain the instructions for making proteins, while transcripts are copies of these instructions that are made during the process of gene expression. Genes are the blueprint for protein production, while transcripts are the intermediary molecules that carry out this process. In terms of structure, genes are composed of nucleotide sequences, while transcripts are single-stranded RNA molecules that are transcribed from genes.
What is the difference between paralogues and orthologues in terms of gene evolution and function?
Paralogues are genes that arise from a gene duplication event within the same species, leading to similar but not identical functions. Orthologues, on the other hand, are genes that are derived from a common ancestor and are found in different species, often retaining the same function. This difference in origin affects how paralogues and orthologues evolve and function in organisms.
What is the difference between paralogous and orthologous genes in terms of their evolutionary relationships and functions?
Paralogous genes are genes that arise from a gene duplication event within the same species, leading to multiple copies of a gene with similar functions. They can evolve new functions over time. Orthologous genes, on the other hand, are genes that are derived from a common ancestor through speciation, leading to genes with similar functions in different species. They typically retain the same function across different species.

What terms describes the way of organisms look as a result of its genes?
A phenotype describes the way an organism looks as a result of its genes.
What terms is used to describe pairs of chromosomes having DNA segments or genes for the same traits?

What is the terms refers to a region of a chromosome that has a specifiic function?
The region of chromosome that is generally thought of as the unit of function is the "gene". Genes are composed of both a "coding region"--that sequence that tells the cell's machinery what the protein will be--and a "regulatory" region, which tells the cell when to turn on the coding region to make the protein.
How genetically similar are humans to rats?
Humans and rats share about 90% of their genes, making them quite genetically similar. However, there are significant differences in the organization and function of these genes, resulting in notable differences between humans and rats in terms of behavior, anatomy, and physiology.
What role do genes play in memory?
There is no concrete evidence linking genes to memory in terms of a good one or a poor one. However, there is a possibility thatÊmemory-affectingÊconditions like Alzheimer's may be linked to genes.
