A person considered a carrier typically has one normal (dominant) allele and one mutated (recessive) allele for a specific gene. This means they do not exhibit symptoms of the genetic condition associated with the recessive allele but can pass the mutated allele to their offspring. For example, in autosomal recessive disorders, carriers are asymptomatic but can potentially have affected children if their partner is also a carrier.
Which statement describes the blood type of a person with the alleles IAi? It is type AB because I and i are codominant. It is type AB because A and i are codominant. It is type A because i is dominant and A is recessive. It is type A because A is dominant and i is recessive.
Co-dominant alleles are both expressed, because both are translated into RNA. One of the best examples of co-dominance is human A/B blood type. The thing that differentiates A and B blood types is the antigens found on the surface of the blood cells. A person with two alleles for A-type antigens will have only A-type antigens, and a person with two B-type alleles will have only B-type antigens. However, a person with one A-type allele and one B-type allele will have blood type AB. A third allele, O-type, has no antigens on the surface of blood cells, and so is only "expressed" in the phenotype if a person has two O-type alleles (and therefore no antigens on their blood cells.)
Yes, the ABO blood group system is determined by multiple alleles. There are three main alleles involved in the ABO blood group system: A, B, and O. These alleles determine the presence or absence of specific antigens on red blood cells, which results in the different blood types (A, B, AB, or O).
A carrier typically has one normal allele (wild type) and one mutated allele for a particular gene. Carriers do not display the symptoms of the genetic disorder associated with the mutated allele, but they can pass it on to their offspring.
Blood type is an example of multiple alleles in humans, with three possible alleles (A, B, and O) that determine blood type. Each person inherits two alleles, resulting in different blood type combinations such as AA, AO, BB, BO, AB, and OO.
Yes. Blood type is determined by two alleles. A person with alleles AA or AO is considered type A, and a person with alleles BB or BO is considered type B. If the parents are AO and BO, they could both pass the O on to their child who would then be OO, type O.
Three common blood alleles are A, B, and O. A person's blood type is determined by the combination of these alleles. People with type A blood have A alleles, people with type B have B alleles, people with type AB have both A and B alleles, and people with type O have neither A nor B alleles.
Which statement describes the blood type of a person with the alleles IAi? It is type AB because I and i are codominant. It is type AB because A and i are codominant. It is type A because i is dominant and A is recessive. It is type A because A is dominant and i is recessive.
type A
An example of a gene with two different alleles is the gene for human blood type, which can have alleles for blood type A, B, or O. Each person inherits one allele from each parent to determine their blood type.
Co-dominant alleles are both expressed, because both are translated into RNA. One of the best examples of co-dominance is human A/B blood type. The thing that differentiates A and B blood types is the antigens found on the surface of the blood cells. A person with two alleles for A-type antigens will have only A-type antigens, and a person with two B-type alleles will have only B-type antigens. However, a person with one A-type allele and one B-type allele will have blood type AB. A third allele, O-type, has no antigens on the surface of blood cells, and so is only "expressed" in the phenotype if a person has two O-type alleles (and therefore no antigens on their blood cells.)
Dominant alleles :-)
unlike alleles
Yes, the ABO blood group system is determined by multiple alleles. There are three main alleles involved in the ABO blood group system: A, B, and O. These alleles determine the presence or absence of specific antigens on red blood cells, which results in the different blood types (A, B, AB, or O).
There are three alleles for blood type: IA=Blood type A IB=Blood type B i=Blood type O The alleles for blood type A and B are codominant so when someone contains the IA and IB alleles, their blood type is AB.
Blood types is a good example of codominance. There are three alleles for blood type, that can be represented as IA, IB, and i. IA and IB are both dominant to i, but when an individual inherits one of each the former two alleles (IAIB), he or she will have type AB blood. Instead of one allele being straightforwardly dominant to another, or the resulting phenotype being a halfway stage between the two alleles, the phenotype has aspects directly resulting from each allele.
A carrier typically has one normal allele (wild type) and one mutated allele for a particular gene. Carriers do not display the symptoms of the genetic disorder associated with the mutated allele, but they can pass it on to their offspring.
