Biology: Alleles and genes
Description
A gene as a stretch of DNA on a chromosome. Alleles as versions (sequence variants) of a gene.
Biology
Life is beautiful! From atoms to cells, from genes to proteins, from populations to ecosystems, biology is the study of the fascinating and intricate systems that make life possible. Dive in to learn more about the many branches of biology and why they are exciting and important. Covers topics seen in a high school or first-year college biology course.
Molecular basis of genetics
Mendel's "heritable factors," which we now call genes, are actually regions of DNA found on chromosomes. Learn how a gene can specify a protein through the processes of transcription and translation, and how allele…
