Biology - 12th Class Biology Chapter 22 Short Questions Preparation

Question # 1

Define gene linkage and gene linkage groups.

  • Ans 1: Gene linkage: Gene linkage is the tendency of DNA sequences that are close together on a chromosomes to be inherited together during the meiosis phase of sexual reproduction.
  • Ans 2: Gene linkage groups: In genetics all of the genes on a single chromosome are inherited as a group i.e during cell division they act and move as unit rather than independently.

Question # 1

Differentiate between gene and allele.

  • Ans 1: Gene: Gene is the basic unit of biological information.In fact DNA allstorts of biological information coded in the sequence of its bases in a linear order and genes are actually parts of DNA comprising its base sequences.
  • Ans 2: Allele: Genes form pairs on pairs of homologous chromosomes.One member of a gene pair is located on one homologue and the other homologue and the other member on the other homologue partners of a gene pair are called alleles.

Question # 1

Compare between epistasis and poleiotropy.

  • Ans 1: Epistasis: When an effect caused by a gene pair on one locus interferes with or hides the effect caused by another gene or gene pair at another locus,it is called epistasis.
  • Ans 2: Poleiotropy: When a single gene affects two of more traits,the phenomenon is called pleiotropy.
