Gene Determination correct answer: the idea that our genes solely determine who we are example: Huntingdon's disease, and sickle cell anemia both depend on genes did do genes determine everything? correct answer: NO, - alcoholism is not determined by genes complex traits = ? correct answer: Mendelian trais - complex traits do not follow a simple mendelian pattern of inheritance Mendelian traits correct answer: characteristics that are influenced by alleles at only one g...

evolution - change in gene frequency in a population over time mechanism - a way for change to occur natural selection - a process in which individuals that have certain inherited traits tend to survive and reproduce at higher rates than other individuals because of those traits - proposed mechanism for evolutionary change variation is determined by - the environment heredity - passing of traits from parents to offspring reproductive success - successfully passing genes to next generation...

IXL genetics questions and answers 100% pass In a group of guinea pigs, some individuals have brown eyes and others have red eyes. In this group, the gene for the eye color trait has two alleles. The allele E is for brown eyes, and the allele e is for red eyes. Minnie, a guinea pig from this group, has brown eyes. Minnie has one allele for brown eyes and one allele for red eyes. Based on this information, what is Minnie's genotype for the eye color gene? Ee This passage describes the shell b...
