There are several depending on the type. Congenital hypertrichosis lanuginosa may be caused by an inverse mutation on the 8q chromosome. Congenital generalized hypertrichosis has a dominant pattern of inheritance and has been linked to chromosome xq24-q27. Congenital generalized hypertrichosis terminalis is thought to be caused by genetic changes on chromosome 17. The gene MAP2K6 may be a factor contributing to this condition.
The unit of heredity found on a chromosome is called a gene.
nucleus → chromosome → gene
An allele is an alternative form of a gene that is found at the same location on a chromosome.
The gene that determines male biological traits is called the SRY gene, which is located on the Y chromosome. This gene plays a crucial role in the development of male sex characteristics during embryonic development.
Wilson's disease is caused by a mutation in the ATP7B gene, which is located on chromosome 13. This gene encodes a copper-transporting enzyme involved in copper metabolism. Mutations in this gene lead to impaired copper transport and accumulation of copper in various tissues, causing the symptoms of Wilson's disease.
Obviously.
Chromosome 2
Chromosome 7
if you mean chromosome its the 15th......
Chromosome numbers: 1, 14, 19, and 21 are affected by Alzheimer's disease.
Chromosome 21 is tripled in Down syndrome.
A gene found on a sex chromosome is known as a sex-linked gene. Alleles are the different forms of a gene.
Chromosome number 8. (Gene: RECQL4 gene.)
The gene associated with narcolepsy is found on chromosome 12 in humans. This gene is called HLA-DQB1*06:02 and is a key genetic factor contributing to susceptibility to narcolepsy.
No - the colour blindness gene is only found on the X chromosome.
The unit of heredity found on a chromosome is called a gene.
yes each gene has 100 chromosome on it
