What are three genes that are passed down from parents to child?

What are three critical things genes must be able to do?

Genes must be able to store information to pass on hereditary traits, regulate the expression of proteins to control cellular processes, and undergo mutations to generate genetic diversity.


What are genes with three or more alleles called?

this makes no scientific sense. A gene (which determines a phenotypic trait) can only contain 2 alleles. However codominace allows for multiple alleles to be chosen from, but only 2 picked for a gene. Also, if multiple genes determine a phenotypic trait that's polygenic inheritance.


How many genes are there for blood type?

There are three


Which genes can be transferred by all three methods of intermicrobial transfer?

The genes that can be transferred by all three methods of intermicrobial transfer are drug resistance. Horizontal transfer is when the individual cell pass along the resistance genes.


How many genes control blood type?

The genes for the others work in similar fashions, though certainly not all have three alleles. The other aspect of blood type which is of most interest to us is the Rh factor. Genetically, this is much simpler than the ABo system. It has only two alleles, one dominant (Rh-positive) and one recessive (Rh-negative).


What are the three main colors of horses?

Black, Bay and Chestnut (also called sorrel). The other colors are created by dilution genes (such as Dun, Creme, Champagne, Silver alleles) and colors can be further affected by the mealy, sooty and grey genes.


An operon is composed of?

An operon is a group of genes that operate together.Operon- a functioning unit of genomic DNA containing a cluster of genes under the control of a single regulatory signal or promoter.Operons are clusters of genes consisting of one operator and promoter. There are a lac operon, which is responsible for metabolism of glucose. And there is also the Trp operon, which is responsible for synthesising tryptophan.


What three adjacent structural genes does the Iac operon consist of?

The lac operon which facilitates or enables lactose digestion to take place has three adjacent structural genes. These genes include lacZ, lacY and lacA. They all have their own unique purpose.


Three critical things that genes were known to do?

There are three critical things that the genes are meant to perform. They are carrying the gene to the next generation, replication of genetic information and find the organisms' heritable characteristics.
