What is the genotype of a heterozygous person with a cleft chin?

Biology
1 answer:

Answer:

Cc

Explanation:

A cleft chin is an example of a trait that is controlled by genetics. A cleft chin is when there is a dimple in the chin which arises when the two sides of the jaw don’t completely fuse together. Famous people with cleft chins are Henry Cavill, John Travolta and Niall Horan.

A cleft chin is generally thought to be a dominant trait. That means, if an individual carries one copy of the cleft chin gene (heterozygous), then they will display the trait.

There are three options: an individual can be homozygous dominant (CC), homozygous recessive (cc) or heterozygous (Cc). A heterozygous person will always have 2 different alleles (for any trait, not just cleft chin). In this case, a heterozygous person will have a cleft chin, because it is dominant. Therefore, an heterozygous person with a cleft chin will be Cc

Remember, the letter doesn't matter - they could also be denoted as Bb, Qq, Rr, Ff. The letter is arbitrary.

By RNA-seq it is possible to identify mRNAs specifically expressed between species since homologous species-specific genes may show single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) among alleles with a biased gene expression

You are a mosquito and your body cells have 3 pairs of chromosomes, giving you a total (diploid) number of 6 chromosomes. After
jeyben [28]

At the beginning of mitosis, a mosquito cell has six double-stranded chromosomes. This cell will have split into two daughter cells with six chromosomes each at the end of mitosis. Consequently, 6 chromosomes will be provided to each daughter cell (single-stranded).

<h3>What is mitosis?</h3>

One cell divides into two genetically identical daughter cells during the cell duplication process known as mitosis. The cell's chromosomes are duplicated throughout the process of mitosis and then divided equally between the two daughter cells' two new nuclei.

Every chromosome acquires identical copies of the parent cell's DNA thanks to anaphase. At their centromere, the sister chromatids divide in half to form distinct, identical chromosomes.
