How does the Dna molecules select protiens of specific traits in an egg? I mean that the selection process is too selective, mutations happen only when there is a minute change in that selection process.
Hii @Sourav12084 ! Welcome to openstudy.com. Kindly clear what do you want to know so that i could be able to help u better
Well, in the topic heredity, and evolution, from one generation to another, how are the characteristics of the father and mother shown by the offspring too? I mean the mechanism by which this occurs?
ohkay , See human beings are diploid i.e they have 46 chromosomes i.e one pair of 23 chromosomes each
Father and mother produce gametes (spermatozoa and ovum) which are haploid i.e have only 23 chromosomes
Now these gametes fuse to form a haploid zygote which further develops into a new born
So the point is, new born got both the characters of father and mother
Is it clear or u need more explanation ? @Sourav12084
I will like to correct a mistake Now these gametes fuse to form a diploid zygote which further develops into a new born
Yes, its clear. Thanks a lot!
Anytime!
