1. An allele is a variant form of a gene. Some genes have a variety of different
located at the same position, or genetic locus, on a chromosome. Humans are called diploid
organisms because they have two alleles at each genetic locus, with one allele inherited from
each parent.

parents?



Answer :

Sure! Here are the answers to the questions provided: 1. An allele for a diploid organism is a variant form of a gene. In this case, since humans are diploid organisms with two alleles at each genetic locus inherited from each parent, the example of an allele for a diploid organism would be: - A. G 2. Homozygous dominant allele is represented by the letters: - A. RR 3. The pioneer in the study of Genetics was: - C. Gregor Mendel 4. A pair of dissimilar alleles for a certain trait is called: - C. Heterozygous genes 5. The study of genes to determine traits inherited by the offspring from the parents is known as: - B. Genetics I hope these explanations help clarify the answers to the questions. If you have any further inquiries or need additional assistance, feel free to ask!
