what do these questions mean?
1. what recessive features do you exhibit?
2. how is it possible for an offspring to exhibit a recessive trait if neither parent exhibit that recessive trait? What must be true about the parent' genes for this to occur?
3. it is possible that a recessive trait in a survey such as this one may have a greater total number than it's dominant counterpart. explain how that might happen in an investigation like this?

btw I gave you that medal. if that matters.

anonymous · Answer

oh! but the alleles aree...?

anonymous · Answer

Differences in the DNA sequence of a gene I believe. I haven't studied much about them in particular.

anonymous · Answer

oh okay thanks that helps me understand more about this dumb work my teacher assigned me.

Being gay is a choice...... not genetics lol

ookawaiioo · Answer
