  4. Dominance (genetics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dominance_(genetics)

    Autosomal dominant and autosomal recessive inheritance, the two most common Mendelian inheritance patterns. An autosome is any chromosome other than a sex chromosome.. In genetics, dominance is the phenomenon of one variant of a gene on a chromosome masking or overriding the effect of a different variant of the same gene on the other copy of the chromosome.

  5. Genomic imprinting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genomic_imprinting

    Inherited imprinted genes of offspring are believed to be monoallelic expressions. A single locus will entirely produce one's phenotype although two alleles are inherited. This genotype class is called parental imprinting, as well as dominant imprinting. [68] Phenotypic patterns are variant to possible expressions from paternal and maternal ...

  6. Phenotypic trait - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phenotypic_trait

    A phenotypic trait is an obvious, observable, and measurable characteristic of an organism; it is the expression of genes in an observable way. An example of a phenotypic trait is a specific hair color or eye color. Underlying genes, that make up the genotype, determine the hair color, but the hair color observed is the phenotype.

    The hemoglobin protein is made of two subunits (alpha and beta). In 15 of the 16 icefish species, the beta subunit gene has been completely deleted and the alpha subunit gene has been partially deleted. [13] One icefish species, Neopagetopsis ionah, has a more complete hemoglobin beta subunit, but a still nonfunctional, hemoglobin gene. [14]
