Genes that 'cannot be described' usually refers to genes that are only predicted to be genes by computer software that reads through DNA sequences and recognize very small lengths of sequences that usually are only present in genes. These genes will certainly eventually be described at some point in the future, but nothing is know about them at present time except that 'it looks like that might be a gene'

Can you control your heredity?

No, you cannot control your heredity. Your genes are inherited from your parents and cannot be altered or changed once you are born. However, you can make lifestyle choices that can influence how your genes are expressed.


Where is a genes location along a chromosome?

A gene's location along a chromosome is determined by its specific position, known as a locus. The locus is described by the distance measured in base pairs from a reference point. Genes closer together on a chromosome are more likely to be inherited together, a phenomenon known as genetic linkage.


What are genes described as?

Genes are segments of DNA that serve as the basic unit of heredity in living organisms. They contain the instructions for building and maintaining an organism's cells, tissues, and organs by coding for proteins. Genes influence various traits and characteristics, ranging from physical features to susceptibility to certain diseases. Overall, they play a crucial role in biological functions and the diversity of life.


Can 4 recessive genes make a dominant gene?

No, the presence of 4 recessive genes cannot result in a dominant gene. Dominant genes are expressed when at least one copy of the dominant allele is present, masking the effects of any recessive alleles.


Can a non living thing exhibit heredity?

No, heredity is the passing of traits or characteristics from parents to offspring, and it requires the presence of genes. Non-living things do not have genes or the ability to reproduce, so they cannot exhibit heredity.

Why has it taken so long to decide how many genes are in the human genome?

· Presence of the UTRs in the first and last exons makes it difficult to annotate the genes, and the human genes have 40% non-coding first exons UTRs thus making it difficult to decide how many genes are in the genome.· Most gene finders cannot handle alternative splicing, cannot handle overlapping or nested genes and also algorithms are trained with sequences from known genes which biases them against genes about which nothing is known


Does a gene pool include the genes of individuals that cannot reproduce?

No, a gene pool consists of all the different alleles and variations of genes within a population of interbreeding individuals. Individuals that cannot reproduce, such as sterile individuals, do not contribute to the gene pool as they do not pass on their genes to the next generation.
