If there are 3 different alleles for a particular gene in a population of diploid organisms, how many different genotypes are po

Effectus [21]3 years ago
7 0

Let’s call them allele A, allele B and allele C. A diploid organism always has 2 alleles, which can be equal or different. So you can figure out these posible combinations: AA, AB, AC, BB, BC, CC (please note that AB = BA, so that counts as 1 genotype; the same with AC = CA, BC = CB). So there are 6 different posible genotypes. Besides, this doesn’t mean there are 6 phenotypes – you will have to gather information about dominance to see which phenotype is produced by each genotype (there are usually less phenotypes than genotypes).

Simora [160]
The correct should be a. human-dominant view

Humans are dominant and if they decide to cut it down then it must be so. That is the human-dominant view that is shown here by loggers.

Is it possible to find the same gene in two different kinds of organisms but not find the protein that is produced from that gen
Bingel [31]
Yes, quite frankly it is possible to find a same gene if you're in the same class of species, but finding the protein....I believe that's impossible because in every type of gene, you have the same proteins that make you function the same way. Without them you wouldn't be able to function properly.

If I found the same gene in all organisms that I've tested, I would be intrigued because that would be a giant step in evolution. My reason for this answer is because if you have the same gene that would technically mean we all specifically came from the same species of animals.

No, that's not true because other characteristics would eventually help us in many things, studies would help us get our brain much stronger and the intelligence level would be extraordinary.
