GENETIC INHERITANCE

Baiklah...Setelah berfikir pendek, akhirnya saya memutuskan utk discuss about Genetic Inheritance... Sebagai Bakal Pensyarah Biologi(aiyyoo mrepek lg) saya akan menyimpulkan secara ringkas bab ini...

Terlebih dahulu mari kita belajar mengenai semua terms dan definisi yang perlu diketahuilah~~

1) Gamete : Mature male or female reproductive cell with a haploid set of chromosomes

2) Genes : Small section of DNA that codes for a particular protein.

3) Alleles : Alternative form of gene that occupy same location in homologous chromosome.

4) Locus : Specific location of genes on a chromosome.

5) Genotype : Genetic constitution of an organism. (e.g : TT @ Tt)

6) Phenotype : The physical appearance of organism. (e.g. Tall/swarft)

7) Dominant allele : Gene that express it phenotype even in presence of recessive genes.(e.g. TT@Tt =tall)

8) Recessive allele : Gene that expresse only when it present in homozygous. (e.g : tt = swarft)
