What are genes??????

Biology
1 answer:
Oksana_A [137]3 years ago
8 0

Answer: In biology, a gene is a sequence of nucleotides in DNA or RNA that encodes the synthesis of a gene product, either RNA or protein. During gene expression, the DNA is first copied into RNA. The RNA can be directly functional or be the intermediate template for a protein that performs a function. Genes and DNA are different..... DNA is the molecule that is the hereditary material in all living cells. Genes are made of DNA, and so is the genome itself. A gene consists of enough DNA to code for one protein, and a genome is simply the sum total of an organism's DNA.

Hope this helps..... Stay safe and have a great day/night!!! :D

What is the difference between bracketed key and indented key?​
____ [38]

Answer:

<em>Bracketed and indented keys are two dichotomous/or branching keys with an ordered, numbered couplet, and spatially differentiated respectively.</em>

Explanation:

Dichotomous keys are used in the identification and classification of taxa.

Bracketed keys, or parallel keys, are easy to understand- for efficiency, these keep the first two entries of every couplet or pair being compared. It also makes use of a numbering system in the couplet choices for easy tracking.

Indented keys maintain an equal distance from the margin on the left of the pages. Successive couplets are indented til the taxon is identified.

A man has extra digits (six fingers on each hand and six toes on each foot). His wife and their daughter have the normal number
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

The correct answer is - option D. 1/2

Explanation:

Extra digits on hands and feet mean an individual has six fingers in each hand and feet, this is known as polydactyly. Polydactyly shows an autosomal dominant type of inheritance pattern.

In this case, the mother is normal so she must be recessive alleles and the first daughter is normal so the father must have a recessive allele which means he is heterozygous.

Cross:

Man = Dd

Woman = dd

Their children :

    D      d

d   Dd    dd  

d  Dd    dd

Probability of polydactyl child = 2/4 or 1/2 or 50%
