Which statement correctly describes a codon? a sequence of three nucleotides that may code for one protein. a sequence of three nucleotides that may code for one amino acid. a sequence of twenty amino acids that codes for one protein. a sequence of three nucleotides that codes for twenty amino acids. a sequence of three amino acids that codes for one protein.
Gene Interactions
When the expression of a single trait is influenced by two or more different non-allelic genes, it is termed as genetic interaction. According to Mendel's law of inheritance, each gene functions in its own way and does not depend on the function of another gene, i.e., a single gene controls each of seven characteristics considered, but the complex contribution of many different genes determine many traits of an organism.
Gene Expression
Gene expression is a process by which the instructions present in deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) are converted into useful molecules such as proteins, and functional messenger ribonucleic (mRNA) molecules in the case of non-protein-coding genes.
