Makeup of genes?

Four of the five answers listed below describe the gene makeup. Select the exception.





a. pure-breeding





b. homozygous





c. heterozygous





d. carrier





e. phenotype

Makeup of genes?
e. phenotype
Reply:Sure e. You might keep in the back of your mind that a gene is a concept that helps you solve. There really is no such thing as a gene. There are areas and regions.
Reply:I would say as A


homozygous is when 2 copies of the gene are the same


heterozygous is when 2 copies of the gene are different


A carrier is an individual who is heterozygous for a recessive disease.


phenotype is all of the characters an individual possesses.





I may be wrong but there you go.
