Answer:

A particular genotype does not necessarily guarantee a particular phenotype. Understanding what factors can change this expression is quite complex.. What is what i believe that above statement meant.

Explanation:

Error is the stochastic variation associated with a particular observation of the phenotype (and is managed by use of replication and and appropriate experimental design). The phenotype is the result not only of the average effect of the different alleles at a given locus across test units and across environments, but is impacted by the interaction between the different alleles and the environments (including genetic backgrounds) in which they are evaluated. Phenotype is not simply the sum of the genotype effect and the environment effect, as indicated in the mathematical formula that you provide.

What happens if p53 is mutated?

stira [4]

Answer:

Most TP53 mutations change single amino acids in the p53 protein, which leads to the production of an altered version of the protein that cannot control cell proliferation and is unable to trigger apoptosis in cells with mutated or damaged DNA. As a result, DNA damage can accumulate in cells

Answer:

Pleiotropy

Explanation:

Pleiotropy is a genetic condition in which a single gene conditions the expression of multiple phenotype. There are different types of pleiotropy depending on the underlining mechanism

gene pleiotropy
developmental pleiotropy
selectional pleiotropy
antagonistic pleiotropy

Phenylketonuria is a disease characterized by increased level of amino acid phenylalanine in the blood. It caused by mutation to the gene responsible for breaking down phenylalanine in the blood. Elevated level of phenylalanine causes other issues such as mental problems, urine coloration and reduction in skin pigmentation. This is a clear case of pleiotropy.
