Biology
1 answer:
sukhopar [10]3 years ago
7 0
It means you have the genetics for the trait but you do not express the trait. Someone who is a carrier could not have a disease, but have offspring that does have that disease. This is because of alleles, which can be upper or lower case letters, upper being dominant traits and lower being recessive. Many genetic diseases are recessive so if a person has the genotype Rr they will carry the disease but if they have rr they will have the disease. If I were you id research how punette squares work

Explain how the vaccine makes someone immune to mumps
slava [35]

They trigger the immune system to produce its own antibodies as though the body has been infected with the disease. But a vaccine will not make someone immune to a disease, it will simply help the body be able fight the infection better.
