Question
Which of the following is a term used to refer to a gene variant?
Mutation
Allele
Locus
None of the above
Mutation
Allele
Locus
None of the above
Hint:
The different versions of a nucleotide sequence present at a specific locus.
The correct answer is: Allele
- A gene has two alleles.
- The alleles are the variants of a gene.
- The allele can be same or different.
- If the alleles are same, it is called homozygous condition.
- If the alleles are different, it is termed as heterozygous condition.
- The presence of a dominant allele will suppress the effect of the recessive allele.
