  • locus
  • allele

Questão 2

Questão
the [blank_start]locus[blank_end] occupies a specific position on the [blank_start]chromosome[blank_end]
Responda
  • locus
  • chromosome

Questão 3

Questão
[blank_start]alleles[blank_end] are different forms of the same gene that occupy the same locus
Responda
  • alleles
  • loci
  • mutations

Questão 4

Questão
alleles differ from only one or a few bases
Responda
  • True
  • False

Questão 5

Questão
what are single nucleotide polymorphisms?
Responda
  • positions in a gene where there is only one base
  • positions in a gene where more than one bases are present

Responda
  • sickle cell anemia
  • alpha-globin
  • hemoglobin

Questão 9

Questão
what happens to the red blood cells once they become sickle cells?
Responda
  • they change shape, become trapped in the capillaries, and reduce blood flow
  • the change shape, become trapped in the arteries, and reduce blood pressure
  • they are heritable factors that consist of the length of DNA and influence a specific characteristic
  • they are specific positions on a chromosome

Questão 10
