Question
The different forms of a gene are called _________
- Traits
- Pollinators
- Alleles
- Hybrids
Hint:
Alleles
The correct answer is: Alleles
An allele is one of two or more versions of DNA sequence (a single base or a segment of bases) at a given genomic location. An individual inherits two alleles, one from each parent, for any given genomic location where such variation exists. If the two alleles are the same, the individual is homozygous for that allele. If the alleles are different, the individual is heterozygous.
