Is an organism with a recessive allele for a particular form of a trait will always exhibit that form true or false?

false


True False Cystic fibrosis is caused by a mutation that is the dominant allele of a gene?

False. Cystic fibrosis is caused by a mutation in the CFTR gene, which is a recessive allele. An individual must inherit two copies of the mutated gene (one from each parent) to develop the condition.


Genetic drift is more likely to occur in large population true or false?

False. Genetic drift is more likely to occur in small populations where chance events can have a greater impact on allele frequencies. In large populations, genetic drift is typically less influential compared to other evolutionary forces.


True or false Mutations are not capable of altering allele frequencies?

In the strict sense, no. Mutations happen to individuals and are only heritable in the germ line. Populations have allele frequencies in their gene pools. So, the mutation must be beneficial, lucky enough that it original carrier passes it on intact and that it is driven into the populations gene pool in sufficient number, by having reproductive success, to change allele frequencies.


Is the following sentence true or false all genes show simple patterns of dominant and recessive alleles?

False. Blood type genes have two dominant alleles (A and B), and one recessive (O). When a person gets one A allele and one B allele, they then have the blood type AB. Both are expressed equally. In other genes, a dominant allele might not be completely dominant, allowing the recessive allele to be partially expressed.

A gene pool typically contains just one allele for each inheritable trait true or false?

False. A gene pool typically contains multiple alleles for each inheritable trait, as individuals within a population can have different variations of a gene. This genetic variation allows for diversity within a population and can play a role in evolution.


Is hemophilia caused by a dominant allele on the x chromosome true or false?

false


True or False In heterozygous individuals only the recessive allele is expressed?

In heterozygous individuals, only the dominant allele is expressed. The recessive allele is present, but not expressed

True False Cystic fibrosis is caused by a mutation that is the dominant allele of a gene?

False. Cystic fibrosis is caused by a mutation in the CFTR gene, which is a recessive allele. An individual must inherit two copies of the mutated gene (one from each parent) to develop the condition.
