Which Genotypes below represent a Heterozygous Genotype? 1. HH, 2. Hh or 3. hh
# 2 - Hh
A Recessive Allele is represented by _______ letter,

An organism Making an exact COPY of itself is an example of
Asexual reproduction
How is the function of cell division in single-celled organisms different from cell division in multicellular organisms?
In single cell organisms it produces a new organism and in multicellular organisms it produces growth and repair of cells.
27. Do siblings from the same parents have the exact copies of DNA and Chromosomes?
siblings have DIFFERENT DNA because the 46 chromosomes they inherit come from both their Mother and Father but the 23 pairs inherited from both mom and dad are
What is a Version of a Gene called?
Allele
How many chromosomes does a healthy offspring have after sexual reproduction?
46
