Epigenetics is the study of how DNA methylation and alterations to chromosomal proteins affect a gene or group of genes express themselves. For changes in a gene's expression, both of these are need.

In a biological process called DNA methylation, methyl groups are added to the DNA molecule. A DNA segment's activity can be altered by methylation without the sequence changing. DNA methylation usually inhibits transcription of genes when it occurs in a gene promoter.

Epigenetics literally translates to "along with changes in genetic sequence." Any procedure that modifies gene activity without altering DNA sequence and results in modifications that can be passed on to daughter cells is now included in the term. Is called Epigenetics.

Drag the titles to the correct boxes to complete the pairs Identify the types of inhertiance based on the expression of alleles
HACTEHA [7]

Complete question:

Drag the tiles to the correct boxes to complete the pairs. Identify the types of inheritance based on the expression of alleles in the organism. dominant recessive multiple presences of many alleles for the trait to be expressed  the presence of two alleles for the trait to be expressed  presence of a single allele for the trait to be expressed ​

Answer:

  1. multiple
  2. recessive
  3. dominant

Explanation:

  • Autosomal dominant inheritance characterizes because the dominant allele completely hides the expression of the recessive allele. Even when both dominant and recessive alleles are present in the genotype, only the dominant trait will be expressed. Only one dominant allele is enough to express the dominant phenotype.
  • Autosomal recessive inheritance characterizes by the expression of the recessive trait. Two copies of these alleles are needed to express the recessive phenotype and no dominant alleles.
  • Polygenic heritability occurs when a trait is due to the action of multiple genes that can also have more than two alleles. This can cause many different combinations that are the reason for genotypic graduation.

What role does the location of a cell in a developing embryo play in cell differentiation?
Anarel [89]
Hey there,

Your question states: <span>What role does the location of a cell in a developing embryo play in cell differentiation?

Based on my research</span>, the role that places in the location of developing of the embryo would be basically depend on how it <span>helps determine how it will differentiate.And not only that, it also depend how HOW the stem will also differentiate.

Hope this helps.
