CHILD DEVELOPMENT PEDAGOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Note: The curly hair and straight hair alleles are examples of codominant alleles for a phenotype.

Detailed explanation-2: -A phenotype is your version of a trait. Like curly vs straight hair. An allele is the term geneticists use to refer to a version of a gene.

Detailed explanation-3: -Hair color is a genetic and physiologically complex phenotype, which represents one of the most visible variations within humans and between populations [1].

Detailed explanation-4: -Every individual has a set of genes from both parents that determine their genotype. Examples of genotypes include eye color, hair color, and certain diseases.

Detailed explanation-5: -An organism’s genotype is its specific combination of alleles for a given gene. So, for example, in the pea plants above, the possible genotypes for the flower-color gene were red-red, red-white, and white-white. The phenotype is the physical manifestation of an organism’s allellic combination (genotype).
