Genes have nothing to do with intellegence. It has to do with how fast your brain reacts and how many brain cells you have.

What is a trait determined by one gene?

No, actually many traits such as intelligence, height and skin color are polygeneic, meaning they are determined by more than one genes, so they don't come from one gene from both parents. And further going against the statement, TDF (Testis determining factor) is found only on the holandric part (non-homologous) of the Y chromosome, so that gene is only coming from one parent (the father).


Would blood group changes in neonate?

no. The ABO system and Rh blood group are already decided the moment sperm meets ovum. It is decided by the gene we have. For ABO classification, to put it simply people with A blood type has two A gene or one A gene plus one O gene. People with B type have two B gene or one B gene plus one O gene. People with AB type has one A gene and one B gene. O type has two O genes. A father passes one of his blood gene to his child and a mother passes one as well that the child now has two, and the combination is what decides the child's blood type. Bombay type is a very rare blood type different from A, B, or O. You can only have it if your family has a very rare gene, or in other words, if one of your family has it.


Are the Indian race of people the smartest race in the world?

That depends on how we categorise smartness and intelligence, which can be affected by many variables such as gene, education systems and environment in which education is fostered. Therefore there is no definite answer as to which race is the smartest. Given the variables are all the same, every race may be assumed to have equal intelligence.


When one gene expresses itself over another the former gene is said to be the DNA?

The gene that expresses itself over the other is Dominant. The former gene is recessive.


What is meant by one gene one peptide?

The concept of "one gene, one peptide" states that each gene typically codes for one specific protein or peptide. This means that the information encoded in a single gene is responsible for producing one specific functional product. However, alternative splicing and post-translational modifications can lead to the production of multiple protein isoforms or variants from a single gene.

Is it possible to increase the intelligence of mice if you inject them with the CTNND2 gene?

A gene is only one small segment of the DNA in a chromosome, it can not just be "injected" into an existing organism like a chemical or medicine. The currey theory of the function of the CTNND2 gene is in how the proteins that it codes for work in the brain. To use this gene, it would have to be present in every cell of the organism ( or at least the brain). Some forms of generic therapy can modify the DNA of a developing embryo and cause it to express the gene. This is the exact point of current research to see if the gene does affect social intelligence.

Is the intelligence gene carried in the x chromosome?

No, my wife is dumb as a post but my kid can do math like you wouldn't believe.


Is sickle cell a one gene disorder?

No, it's not a one gene disorder


What is gene that will show up even if there is only one copy of the gene?

That is a dominant gene.


What is a trait called when it is controlled by more than on gene?

A trait that is controlled by more than one gene is called polygenic. This means that multiple genes contribute to the expression of the trait, leading to a continuous range of phenotypic variation. Examples of polygenic traits include height, skin color, and intelligence.


What is one gene one enzyme hypothesis just state the hypothesis?

The one gene one enzyme hypothesis states that each gene in an organism is responsible for producing one specific enzyme.


Where can one find intelligence services in Australia?

One can find intelligence services in Australia primarily at Australian Secret Intelligence Service. There are probably others listed but notably this is the main one.


What is a dominant gene and what is a recessive gene?

Recessive gene is one which is supressed and do not show their characteristics and dominant gene is one which show their characteristics for example if a father has brown hair and mother has black hairs and if their son has black hair then in this case gene which has characteristics of black is dominant and the other which has characteristics of brown colour is recessive


What is One difference between the gene that codes for insulin and the gene that codes for testosterone in humans?

The gene of insulin has a different sequence of molecular bases than the gene of testosterone.


Can a single gene control a single trait.?

It was once believed that one gene controls one trait, so it is possible. Currently, the belief is that one gene can interact with other genes to control a trait, and that one gene can control more than one trait.
