... 10. In whales, the gene controlling tail shape exists as a dominant notched (T) or a recessive smooth (t) allelic form. A separate gene controls whether there are white markings on the dorsal fin or not. The dominant allele of the second gene (W) results in no white markings whereas the other allel ...

... In order to remove a gene from one cell and insert it into another cell, the gene must be cut from the original chromosome and implanted into the one in the recipient cell. This is accomplished by using special chemicals called restriction enzymes. These enzymes recognize a specific sequence of nucl ...
