A piece of DNA that holds information for a trait is called a gene. Genes are segments of DNA that encode instructions for building proteins, which in turn influence the development and expression of specific traits in an organism. Each gene can vary in sequence, leading to different versions or alleles that contribute to the diversity of traits observed within a population.
What else can I help you with?
What is a section of DNA that determines a trait?
a section of DNA has information about a specific trait of an organism is called what?
Which macromolecule holds your genetic information providing the instructions to manufacture proteins?
DNA
True or False A mutation is the part of a chromosome that carries information about a trait?
False. A mutation refers to a change in the DNA sequence of a gene or chromosome, not the specific part of a chromosome that carries information about a trait.
What is a DNA code for one hereditary trait is called?
The DNA code for one hereditary trait is called a gene.
What is a set of genes that determine a trait?
A piece of DNA which controls a trait is a gene variations of a gene are called alleles. If you mean "controls how much a particular trait is expressed" then you would be dealiung with the promoter region of a gene which is near the start and controls how strongly a gene is expressed.
What is a section of DNA that determines a trait?
a section of DNA has information about a specific trait of an organism is called what?
The heredity information for a particular trait is generally what?
DNA.
The information for any inherited trait is contained in sections of DNA are?
genes
Holds an organisms hereditary information?
In cells they are in DNA. In virus they are in DNA or RNA
What best describes a gene?
A chromosome.A hereditary unit consisting of a sequence of DNA that occupies a specific location on a chromosome and determines a particular characteristic in an organism. Genes undergo mutation when their DNA sequence changes.For apex it's "A piece of a chromosome."
What structure in a cell holds the hereditary information?
DNA
What holds the DNA information within the nucleus?
The chromatin
What organelle holds genetic information in the molecule DNA?
The nucleus is the organelle that holds genetic information in the form of DNA. DNA is tightly packed into structures called chromosomes within the nucleus of eukaryotic cells.
Which organelle holds genetic information in the molecule DNA?
The nucleus is the organelle that holds genetic information in the form of DNA in eukaryotic cells. DNA is stored within the nucleus and is essential for controlling cellular functions and heredity.
Where does a cell store its information?
In the nucleus it also holds the DNA
All the information necessary for an organism to form and grow is recorded in the organism and DNA. How does DNA use its stored information to express a trait?
The genes in the DNA instruct the cell to synthesize proteins
All the information necessary for an organism to form and grow is recorded in the organism's DNA. How does DNA use its stored information to express a trait?
The genes in the DNA instruct the cell to synthesize proteins
