Environmental factors can influence the gene expression in some organisms. a. Describe how environmental factors can affect an organism's phenotype. b. Explain how light exposure can affect gene expression in organisms of the same species. Provide an example.

For gain-of-function disorders, which of the following treatment strategies is the be . A. Gene augmentation B.Supply healthy cells . C.Supply normal form of proteins encoded by wild-type allele . D. Gene silencing

How can mutations cause changes to the traits? Explain using the following steps:1- DNA 2- Gene 3- Protein 4- Traits We need one explanation for the normal side and one for the mutation side.   Can you explain in a few sentences how the change in the structure of the gene affects the function of the corn plant?

Which of the following statements regarding loss of function and gain of function mutations is true?  A. If both gain of function and loss of function approaches show the consistent results it is the most convincing evidence to demonstrate the function of gene B. Gain of  function mute tapes are the most of case recessive C. Gain of function approach is more convincing than loss of function approach D. Over expression of a gene cannot be considered as gain of function
