GCSE Biology - DNA Part 2 - Alleles / Dominant / Heterozygous / Phenotypes and more! #64

There are load of terms to know about DNA, and in this video we explain all the main ones - genes, alleles, homozygous and heterozygous, dominant and recessive, genotype and phenotype. Along the way we'll see how genes and inheritance really works!

    Skin tone is determined by percentage of melanin in the skin cells so i think that it just varies it doesnt work like dominant recessive but usually leans towards one of the two

    That's because human skin colour (phenotype) is controlled by multiple genes, and not just a single dominant allele of a gene. Skin colour in higher animals like humans, is a Polygenic trait.

    Hi sir , this video is very helpful . I understood most of it except I had a query at 2:38 , when u said the mouse has to have both alleles for green fur being homozygous recessive to have the green fur characteristic , although what would happen if the mouse had recessive allele for both colours so if it had a recessive allele for purple fur and a recessive allele for green fur , what colour would the fur be then ? Or if the mouse had a dominant alleles for both colours?

    There would never be two dominant so in this case the purple will always be the dominant and the green recessive. So in another example the eye colour, there is Brown which is dominant so we use - B, and a blue iris which is - b. So there always is one recessive and one dominant feature

    Well they would just be codominant which basically means that the offspring’s fur will be a mix of purple and green(whatever colour that makes?!), because there isn’t a dominant allele because they both are in this case. I hope that cleared it up :)

    1) Alleles are different versions of the same gene. Alleles codes for a particular type of protein, however, it copies the protein structure of a particular gene. Different type of proteins with the same structures involve a different type of genes to code those proteins. We call those different genes alleles. In other words, alleles are different versions of the same gene. And because we have 2 copies of each gene (one from our mother and one from our father), we have 2 types of alleles. Remember how I said that these alleles code proteins? Well, if those 2 alleles are different, we will say that we are heterozygous. If they are the same, we will say we are homozygous. However, with heterozygous people with alleles which are different, one allele will be DOMINANT and the other will be RECESSIVE meaning the dominant one will always be expressed (carried out). In homozygous, both alleles will be expressed as both are the same. Genotypes are the sum of all alleles (all the collection of alleles), but phenotype if the same characteristics that are displayed, even if they have different genotypes. I know, it's tough learning this stuff, but delve deep and research. You'll get there :)
