Which of the following best describes the image?

• The phenotype is determined by the polypeptide produced by the gene at a certain locus

• The genotype is determined by the polypeptide produced by the phenotype

• Hair colour and eye colour are determined by the colour of gene

What is gene knockout

• Choosing two genes to compete for dominance to determine the function of that gene

• Selectively breeding organisms to determine the function of their genes

• Genetically adding a gene to an organism to determine the function of that gene

• Genetically removing a gene from an organism to determine the function of that gene

Define Genome.

• All of the genes of an organism

• All of the genetic information in the nucleus of an organism

• All of the base pairs in an organism

• The project used to map all of the genes in a human

How do genomes differ amongst eukaryotic organisms?

I. Size

II. Number of genes

III. Base sequence

• I only

• II only

• I and III

• I and II

What does the image show?

• Humans have more chromosomes than a virus

• Canopy plants have more genes than the other organisms

• Humans have less genes than a canopy plant

• A canopy plant has a bigger genome than the other organisms
