You are what you eat—and what you eat may beencodedin your DNA. Studies have indicated that your genetics play a role in determining the foods you find delicious or disgusting. But exactly how big a role they play has been difficult topin down. “Everything has a genetic component, even...
In blood typing, Rh+ or having the Rh factor (R), is dominant over Rh-, lacking the Rh factor (r). Can 2 Rh- parents produce an Rh+ child? yes no the genetics can't work Sickle cell anemia is a recessive disease in humans. If only one parent carries a ...
An independent variable is a variable that you can control. One way to explain it to a child is that it is the variable that the child can change during the experiment. For example, in an experiment on the effect of light on plant growth, the child can control how much light a plant ...

What is genetics? Give a definition. What are methods of gene transfer in plant and what is transgenic plant? What is the application of transgenic plant ? Define allele and locus. Explain what genetic engineering is and give an example of genetic engineering. What is meant by complementary ge...
Some genes have a variety of different forms, which are located at the same position, or genetic locus, on a chromosome. ... Alleles contribute to the organism's phenotype, which is the outward appearance of the organism. Some alleles are dominant or recessive. What occurs in a deletion ...
In ZFN-mediated gene targeting, this is circumvented by using designer ZFNs to cut at the desired chromosomal locus inside the cells. The DNA break is then patched up using the new investigator-provided genetic information and the cells' own repair machinery. The accuracy and high efficiency of...
