How can you be sure of getting the expected 5050 ratio from flipping a coin How are the face of a coin similar to genes?
You cannot be sure.
Not sure how the faces of a coin are similar to genes. There are two and you will get one from each parent. One or the other will dominate. However, while heads and tails of a coin are equally "powerful", some genes are far more powerful (recessive) than others.
What else can I help you with?
Is it true that you are more than the sum of your genes?
The answer is No you are not more then your genes.
What is the probability of getting curly hair?
The probability of getting curly hair depends on whether your parents do or not. Hair genes are decided by the mother. So, if the mother has curly hair, more than likely the offspring will as well. If the father has curly hair and the mother does not, the probability is considerably lowered.
What is the possible phenotype of four offspring?
It dependes on the genes of the parent if you have no information of the genes of the parent I cannot tell you
Can colorblindness be passed on through genes?
yes, although not all the persons who have the color blindness 'genes' actually suffer its effects. they can be just carriers, who pass on the genes to the next generation. fyi: mostly males are affected by color blindness
How likely am i to have twins if my mothers father is a twin?
Well since you have half of your mother's genes, and half of your father's genes' I'd say about 50/50
What is homozygous and what is hetrozygous?
Homozygous: genes are similar Hetrozygous: genes are not similar
What are genes that do not undergo independent assortment called?
Genes that do not undergo independent assortment are linked genes. These genes are located on the same chromosome and tend to be inherited together more often than would be expected by chance.
Are similar genes evidence of common ancestory?
Yes, similar genes are evidence of common ancestry. Genes are passed down from generation to generation, so when organisms share similar genetic sequences, it suggests a shared evolutionary history or common ancestor. This is a fundamental concept in the field of evolutionary biology.
How are traits and genes similar?
Traits and genes are similar in that they both play a role in determining an organism's characteristics. Genes are segments of DNA that contain the instructions for specific traits, while traits are the physical or biochemical characteristics that result from the expression of genes. Genes control the inheritance of traits from one generation to the next.
What is the term for a group of genes that work together to perform a similar job?
The term for a group of genes that work together to perform a similar job is a gene cluster.
What do you call chromosomes that have similar paired genes?
homologous
Are homologous chromosomes similar in length and do they have the same type of genes in the same locations?
Yes, homologous chromosomes are similar in length and have the same type of genes in the same locations.
Why do the function of cell differ mitosis?
the renetic genes are similar
Chromosomes have similar paired genes called?
Sister Chromatids
What can increase a person's chance of getting cancer?
Being born with certain genes.
In what ways are homologous chromosomes similar?
Homologous chromosomes are similar in size, shape, and genetic content. They carry the same genes, although they may have different versions of those genes called alleles. During meiosis, homologous chromosomes pair up and exchange genetic material through a process called crossing over.
Approximately what percentage of a person's genes are similar to that of an unrelated person?
0.1 percent
