To find a gene, you have to associate a phenotype with a genotype (e.g. all individuals with white flowers have a certain allele

). it is much harder to find genes that are involved in polygenic traits than it is to find the genes responsible for discrete traits. why? it's much more difficult to determine the dna sequence of alleles associated with polygenic traits. the alleles associated with polygenic traits are usually co-dominant. polygenic traits results from extensive gene by gene interactions, which makes finding individual genes difficult. it's harder to find one of the many genes involved in a polygenic trait vs. the only gene involved in a discrete trait..

The allele for brown fur in mice (B) is dominant over the allele for white fur (b).
evablogger [386]

Answer:

Genotype: Bb (heterozygous)

Phenotype: brown fur

Explanation:

Since allele B is dominant to allele b, as long as genotype has allele B in it, its effect of phenotype will be expressed instead, regardless of whether allele b is present.

As mouse genotype is stated as Bb, on the chromosome from its parents, allele B comes from one parent while allele b is inherited from the other parent.

Phenotype is the expressed trait. In this case, as genotype has allele B, the phenotype will be brown fur as its effect is expressed.

What kind of viral replication cycle will most likely damaged host cells immediately
Verizon [17]

Viral replication involves six steps: attachment, penetration, uncoating, replication, assembly, and release. During attachment and penetration, the virus attaches itself to a host cell and injects its genetic material into it.


toxic enzymes that damage the host cell that are coded for in the viral genome

secretion of chemicals from the virus to the membrane of the host cell

replication of the viral genetic material within the host

lysis of the host to release new viruses

integrating into the host cell chromosomes
