I'm a Premed student and can't understand genetics anywhere more than from your channel. You are amazing! I wish you make more videos on higher-level, enhanced and new genetic concepts for students of master of genetic counseling and geneticists.

The easiest way to understand is certain gene expresses eye color. Allele is the actual color like brown, black, or blue. I hope that helps to those who are confuse.

I thought that was the function of the gene-

can we think of Genes as clothes and Alleles as variations in them? So two people can have the same shirt but different color.

Great DNA series! Really helped me understand my notes from class! Thank you!

Thank you for this as it explains in more detail about the relationship between genes and alleles

Could we say that gens represents the genotype, and alleles represent the phenotype?

What does it mean , when the definition for alleles is " A pair of contrasting characters or traits " ?

Can you explain the difference between a SNP's and alleles?

One gene would represent eye color. Allele would be brown or blue. So allele is the flavour of a gene.

You are one of the best teachers in history.

This is a very helpful video..

Good explanation ! Thank you!

Thanks, this video really helped

Great Video as usual Sal!

it is very much helpful to me .

You are a god, because of this video I've passed my bio test, Thank you

8:13 That definitely helped thanks so much :D

What is the difference between traits and alleles and characters and genes???

I have a doubt, when you say you have A on your gene and T on my gene (two alleles), the A it is not supossed to be together with another pair of base on my gene? How it is a allele? Because T and A are pair of bases. I don't know if you can understand my question.

dear sir wouldn't,t it be easier to say the gene we get for eye color from our parents one from mother and the other from father are alleles to each other . am i right ? plz correct me if i am wrong .

When polypeptides are being synthesized, is the template equally likely to be from the maternal or paternal chromosome or is there a difference in probability? Does it even matter? It should, in cases of heterozygotes with one abberant allele e.g. Tay Sachs disease, shouldn't it? How does one chromosome get chosen, from which a protein is to be made when there are always two options? Or is it that both maternal and paternal chromosomes contribute?

Thanks! That cleared some things up for me. :)

More biology videos Sal?!?!?! Yes!!

best video ever that i have seen

Its like we all have pizza But you might have cheese pizza ,I might have chicken pizza Pizza - gene ( same for all) Cheese pizza - allele ( particular type for that particular person) Chicken pizza - allele ( particular type for that particular person)

Could we also say that Alleles are like Homologous Pairs? We can have Homologous Pairs that code for the character say hair but have have different varying traits in them like hair colour?

It helped quite alot thanx

I wanted to ask a question to clarify some simple concepts. We always hear that we have two copies of every gene (one from father and another from mother). When we say that, do we mean the 5-3 strand and 3-5 strand double stranded DNA? Or do we mean that there are actually two copies of the gene, each having its own 5-3 strand and 3-5 strand?

This actually is not confusing. It has been made confusing by giving different names for almost same things. This also applies for chromosome, chromatin and chromatid.

What makes a allele dominant and recessive?

So helpful!

excellent!!

fantastic!

If theoretical “First life” is self replicating rna, how was its dna developed in the first place? Genes are synergistic, not linear in expression

A loci is a part of a DNA in which a specific gene is present. If you can understand what I am saying?

Some questions - Does a pair of chromosome exist in each cell that would mean 4 different chromatids and 4 different type of gene ?

My dad is a biology teacher in Paine College @Khan Academy @Sal Khan

This video should be compressed to be 2 minutes long. 75% of the content is him saying the same thing over and over again.. IN exactly the same way, which is to say, he's saying it in exactly the same way, the same way he says it before. Over and over, about what his image is referring to. the image he's pointing to, is the same way, as the other things. Over and over again. So what I'm trying to say, is that the video should be shortened because he's saying the same things too many times. Which is to say he needs to cut that out because it's too repetitive.

This speaker has made many videos, and knows what he's doing. He is very smart. Good teachers know that repetition helps learn, and that explaining the same thing 4 ways might help 4 students understand the subject each step of the way. Also, it might just be his manner of speaking. Also, his priority with this video is to help people understand what he's talking about. He is not concerned with the fact that many students will find this video "rudimentary" and a waste of their time - he is concerned that many students would not understand the video if he were to just say, "Gene = section. Allele = flavour of section". Also, most of his repetition occurs while he is drawing, and his drawing helps visual learners. Also, he talks about more than just the basics of genes and alleles. He talks about mRNA, tRNA, rRNA, transcription, translation, X and Y chromosome determining gender (which many forget nowadays), etc. Altogether, I understand your criticism and think it is somewhat valid, but it is a good idea to see things from the speaker's perspective, and from less-intelligent viewers' perspectives as they gain a lot out of this video

How is self replicating RNA may be the basis for all complex life on earth different from a tornado ripping through a junkyard and producing a 747 jetliner? Love the information but i think your premise is flawed. Our creator/designer gave us all the necessary tools to live forever in a vast uncharted Universe and some try and look the other way. Sad to see, but in the end. Your non belief has actually helped us understand our Universe in a more logical and productive way. So in the end it all works out how it was intended. If everyone thought the same and had the same beliefs we would never be able to debate and figure out the truth together. Everything is the way it is for a reason and i feel we will eventually figure out the answer or force an intervention.

You can't deny that everything in this Universe has a cause. Everything! Our creator is outside of this Universe which negates the need for anything prior.

Kind of like gum right? If you take a classroom to go get some gum, everyone would have had gum. These are the genes. Inevitably kids would have chosen different flavors of gum so the different flavors are the Alleles. Makes sense.
