Genes are `coded instructions` for making proteins and that DNA is

... DNA strands are loose within the nucleus of a cell. Just prior to cell division the DNA folds up around proteins called histones into tight coils, then into structured chromosomes. The human cell has 46 chromosomes arranged into 23 pairs of chromosomes. Each chromosome in a pair has the same genes, ...

The most likely possibility is a situation where a factor in the mother’s egg cytoplasm was inherited, and this contributed to the death of only males. Ans. (e) 2.

File - Ms. Mathiot`s 7th Grade Science Class

... As you know, a gene is a sequence of DNA. The gene that is coded for by a stretch of DNA then allows for a certain type of protein to be made. The protein that is made will determine the hereditary characteristics of the organism such as blood type and hair, eye, and skin color. But many of the prot ...

It is thus important to know the distribution of allelic effects in natural populations: how many genes contribute variation to each particular trait, how large ar ...
