Is a persons height determined by genes only?
No. Height can also be determined by environmental factors such as diet.
Are a person characteristic determined only by genes?
No- some are determined by environment. If you are tanned, have callouses on your hands, have strong arms and a 6 pack abs- that came only partially from your genes. Exposure to sunlight and hard labor got you the rest.
Why is a persons phenotype harder to predict than a persons genotype?
Because peoples appearances changes as their body changes.
Do male dogs get the genes of their father when born?
They get the genes of both parents. Only one chromosome determines gender, but the rest of the traits are determined by both parents.
Why are white blood cells often used to study a persons genes?
because they are the only blood cells with a core .That means that they have dna
Traits determined by recessive genes located on the x chromosomes are said to be?
X-linked recessive traits. These traits are more commonly expressed in males, as they only have one X chromosome. Females need to inherit two copies of the recessive gene to express the trait.
Can Chinese people only have brown or black eyes?
Although Chinese people predominantly have brown or black eyes due to inherited genes it is possible for anyone from any race to have any colour of eyes due to eye colour being determined by multiple genes.
Who are the only people with the exact same genes?
only twins have the same genes (all twins)
Are persons characteristics determined only by genes?
No, a person's characteristics are influenced by a combination of genes and the environment. While genes play a significant role in shaping traits like eye color or height, environmental factors such as upbringing, education, and experiences also play a crucial role in shaping a person's personality, behavior, and abilities.
Are an organism's characteristics determined only by it's genes?
No, an organism's genetically expressed characteristics, or phenotype, may be altered or affected by its environment; in a purely physical connotation, Nature versus Nurture. There are dozens of Cell types yet we are told that all Cells contain the same set of Genes; how can this be? An organism is composed from organs. The characteristics of an organ are determined by the Expression of the genes that are ensconced in its Nucleus. It is highly common that many 'gene products' act as biochemical switches that by their presence, or absence, determine {called determination} wether or not another gene will be 'actively' expressed. This would be 'internal regulation'. The NEW SCIENCE OF EPIGENETICS focuses on the external or environmental molecular switches that effect (the) patterns of gene expression.
What genes are expressed even when present on only one chromosome?
dominant genes
How does dying your hair influence the genes for hair color?
Dyeing your hair does not influence the genes for hair color. The color of your hair is determined by your genetics, specifically the combination of genes inherited from your parents. Dyeing your hair only changes the external appearance of the hair and does not alter the underlying genetic code.
