Genes are from half your mother anf father the function of the genes are to make you the way you are like eys colour and hair and much more so if we didn't have genes we would not look like the way we do now

How is it possible for a point mutation to have no effect on the function of the gene TAC CG?

A point mutation may have no effect on the function of the gene TAC CG if it occurs in a non-coding region of the DNA or if it results in a synonymous change, where the altered codon still codes for the same amino acid due to the redundancy of the genetic code. Additionally, mutations may not affect the protein's structure or function if they occur in regions of the protein that are not critical for its activity. Furthermore, if the mutation does not alter gene expression levels or the protein's folding and stability, its functional impact may be negligible.


Inhibitory gene effect?

The inhibitory effect of glucose on phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase gene expression in cultured hepatocytes is transcriptional. It requires glucose metabolism.


What is gene action?

A delayed-action gene is a gene that takes time to go into effect. Examples of a delayed-action gene are puberty and greying hair.


How are gene knockout organisms used in determining the function of genes?

Gene knockout organisms are animals, usually mice and rats, who have been genetically engineered so that one of their genes is removed or knocked out. The ways in which their behaviour or appearance deviates from normal shows what the function of that gene is. For example, if the animals cannot stop eating and eat themselves to death, then it is clear that the genes are essential to the animal's ability to feel full and so stop eating. Knockout mice can also be used to test the effect of drugs and medication: if the drug has an effect on normal mice but not on the knockout mice then clearly the drug works through the mechanism which is controlled by the missing gene.


What is a form of a gene that always has its effect when it is present?

How is it possible for a point mutation to have no effect on the function of gene?

If the point mutation does not change the protein to be translated in the 3-letter sequence, then it will have no effect on the gene's function.

What is a version of a gene that masks the effect of another version?

A dominant gene is a version of a gene that will be expressed and mask the effect of a recessive gene in a heterozygous individual.

it is the study of gene and gene function in micro organisms.


What is the Trojan gene effect?

The Trojan gene effect refers to a genetic phenomenon where a deleterious gene hitchhikes along with a beneficial gene that spreads through a population. This can result in the deleterious gene becoming more widespread even though it is harmful to the organism.
