Guida verificata passo dopo passo1
Understand that a gene is a segment of DNA located at a specific position, called a locus, on a chromosome.
Recognize that genes can have different versions or variants, which are called different forms of the same gene.
Learn that these different forms of a gene found at the same locus are known as alleles.
Differentiate alleles from other terms: chromatids are duplicated chromosome arms, phenotypes are observable traits, and codons are triplets of nucleotides in mRNA that code for amino acids.
Conclude that the term describing different forms of a gene at the same locus is 'alleles'.
