Chromosomal theory of inheritance, linkage, sex determination

Specific characterization of an organism is called a trait, which can be determined by genes, environment, and their interaction. The genetic contribution of these traits defines the organism’s genotype, and the physical appearance of genes is known as the phenotype. Skin colour, height, eye colour, diseases are the traits that get genetically inherited. Genes Genes […]

This is the most frequent kind of dwarfism. As the name says, it’s characterised by body parts that are disproportionate to one another.

Traits are a person’s defining qualities. For instance, their blood type or the colour of their hair. Genes, as well as gene-environment interactions, have a role in phenotyping. Keep in mind that genes are programmed as the signal transmitters in our DNA that define our unique personalities. As a result, a phenotype is the physical
