Allele definition biology || NEET | AIIMS ||

  Alleles  Each gene may exist in alternative forms known as alleles, which code for different versions of a particular inherited character.  We may also define alleles as genes occupying corresponding positions on homologous chromosomes and controlling the same characteristic (e.g. height of plant) but producing different effects (tall or short).  The term homologous refers to chromosomes that carry the same set of  genes in the same sequence, although they may not necessarily carry    identical alleles of each gene.             Wild-type Alleles Normal or Prevalent alleles in a population are called wild-type alleles. These alleles typically encode proteins that are made in the right amount and function normally.  Mutant Alleles   Alleles that are present at less than 1% in the population and have been altered by mutation are called mutant alleles ....

Examples of Multiple Allelism

Gene may has more than 2 alleles   šŸ˜•.... Is it !!!!!!!! As we have studied that some genes may exist in three or more allelic forms which we called as   multiple alleles . ā‡¦ Here are some examples of multiple allelism  ABO Blood group in Humans. Skin Colour in Humans. Eye colour in Drosophila. Coat colour in Rabbit. 1. ABO Blood group in Humans. A classical example of multiple alleles is found in the ABO blood group system of humans.  The RBC's of people with type A blood group contain A antigens, those with blood group B contain B antigens, those with type AB blood group have both A and B antigens and those with O blood group don't have any A or B antigens. The I A  and I B   alleles are responsible for production of A and B antigens. The alleles I A  for the A antigen is codominant with the allele I B   for the B antigens. Both I A   and  I B  are completely dominant to allele i, which ...

Larval forms of Echinodermsā€¦ā€¦..

Larval forms of Echinodermsā€¦ā€¦.. A. Dipleurula Larva: 1. The dipleurula form is reached during development and is characterised by its bilaterally symmetrical, egg-shaped body. 2. The ventral concave side bears the mouth and is encircled by a circumoral ciliated band. 3. The digestive canal is differentiated into oesophagus, stomach and intestine while anus is disposed ventrally. 4. The pre-oral lobe which is situated at the anterior to mouth, bears an apical sensory plate and a tuft of cilia. 5. The ciliation on the surface of the body becomes reduced to a ciliard band. >>> This Dipleurula form is regarded by many as the hypothetical ancestral form of Echinoderm, as this form is universally present. The Dipleurula concept was first propounded by Bather (1900). The major changes involved in other Echinoderm larĀ­vae are due to differential disposition of the ciliated bands.     ...
