Gene regulation is the process of controlling which genes in a cell's DNA are expressed (used to make a functional product such as a protein). Different cells in a multicellular organism may express very different sets of genes, even though they contain the same DNA.
The correct answer is C) Genetic influences exert a larger role in Type II diabetes than in Type I diabetes.
Explanation:
Monozygotic or identical twins share the same genes; due to this, if twins have the same diseases or there are concordance rates, it can be concluded the disease or condition is influenced by genetics.
In the case of diabetes, the concordance rate for Type II diabetes was high (80%), which proves this type of diabetes is influenced to a large extend by genetics. Similarly, in Type I diabetes genetics seem to have an influence but this is not as strong as in Type II because the rates were lower (30-50%).
Moreover, the results of dizygotic twins (twins with different genes) show diabetes is influenced by genetics because in these twins the genetics are not the same, and therefore the concordance rate is low.
Answer:
<h2>
Genotype is the set of genes( allele) of an organism.
</h2><h2>
Phenotype is the physical expression of the genetic composition of an organism.
</h2>
Explanation:
Genotype: 1. It is the genetic composition of an organism, means it is the set of genes( allels) of an organism's DNA, which is responsible for a particular trait of an organism.
2. Genotypically, an organism can be homozygous(dominant or recessive) or heterozygous. Some Alleles are dominant over other, means some can be dominant or other can be recessive.
3. Genes are responsible for all the traits in an organism, and these traits are inheritable. All the offsprings inherit all traits from their parents.
Phenotype: 1. Physical expression of the genetic composition of an organism resulted as phenotype.
2. It is the physical expression of genes (alleles) which are responsible for any trait.
Answer:
Several examples of sphere interactions can be inferred from this photograph: Humans (biosphere) built a dam out of rock materials (geosphere). Water in the lake (hydrosphere) seeps into the cliff walls behind the dam, becoming groundwater (geosphere), or evaporating into the air (atmosphere).
