HOMOGENEOUS = Same genes?
110632
Homogeneous just means the same, or uniform throughout.  It doesn't necessarily apply to race.  You can certainly have a genetically homogeneous population, but that is a much higher level of sameness than a racially homogeneous population.  Within any racial group there is a huge amount of genetic variability.  \n\nOK, Kurdiatcha's response to my analysis is entirely correct. I will point out, though, that I never said it was anything other than speculation.  At any rate, I hadn't slept in about 3 days, and in that context my analysis made perfect sense to me.  Sorry!\n\nNew theory: I think the perseption that there is more physical diversity in Europe than Africa or Asia could be partially explained by the fact that Europe is geographically smaller.  So it's just that all the different groups are more crammed together and it ends up looking more diverse.\n_________\n\n>>>It was one of the better responses I’ve seen on Yahoo\n>>>answers. It just happened to be incorrect.\nSo I never use the expression "lol," but it seems rather appropriate here.  That was well said.  Thanks : )\n\nYou're probably right on my other theory too.  I should just stop speculating on this entirely.  I do want to point out, though, that the guy who posted the question and said Europeans look more different than Asians is Asian (at least he said so in another question), so I don't think you're entirely correct that people are always more tuned in to difference within their own racial group.  I wouldn't have bothered to speculate on the issue at all (after you shoot down my first theory, that is) except I thought it could possibly hold some tinsy bit of truth because of that.

A homozygote for the gene in question, an individual bearing identical alleles, one from each parent.

Alleles are different 'forms' of the same gene.\n\nFor example, there are three alleles of the gene for blood groups; alleles A, B and O.\n\nIn diploid organisms like ourselves we have two complete sets of genes, so there are various combinations of alleles. One allele is inherited from the mother and one from the father.\nAA - blood group A\nAO - blood group A (because A is dominant to O)\nBB - group B\nBO - group B (B dominant to O)\nAB - group AB (alleles are codominant - equal dominance)\nOO - group O\n\nGeneologically, we can follow the inheritance of various characteristics (determined by alleles) and similarly blood groups can be used to eliminate or confirm parentage.\n\nThe 'classic' geneological example is the family tree of Queen Victoria of Great Britain. This follows the inheritance of the sex-linked gene for haemophilia.

I'd say no. Location has nothing to do w/ genes UNLESS you isolate the people in each city so the people inside them cannot reproduce with other people from different cities. Over time you MIGHT be able to see little distinctions because the dominant traits will have been passed around to everyone and then they will express it.

No, different genes are coded starting on different strands. However, one strand must be used for one protein; they cannot both be used, because RNA polymerase binds to a start codon and then must procede in the 5' to 3' direction.

The genes are said to be "linked."

same number but one is just mutated

I think genomic equivalance is the balancing of the exact amount of genes in a certain human.

To be a homogenous a mixture must be the same throughout.  If you are only having 29 protons in the nucleus, then it is only one element.  Element number 29 is copper.  Try some nice copper wire.  Common and chemical names are both "copper".

Je préfère une équipe homogène.\nUne équipe homogène sera plus régulière et moins dépendante de la forme de deux personnes.\nDe plus, une équipe homogène est plus difficile à jouer car elle est plus constante donc il existe moins de solutions et plus de dangers potentiels pour l'équipe adverse.

fundamentally they will be the same plant but genetic they will be different they will have the same features but those features will appear in a varied state...the environment has a lot to do with how they appear

FALSE -there is no single gene for each antibody- not at least in the traditional/classical sense (those intact in the zygote, the first cell of an individual).\n\nThere are much more varieties of antibodies than the number of inherited, intact genes. But every variety of antibody can be traced back to one 'constituted gene' (developed in the adult stage, not inherited as a piece). There are fragments of genes that are present in the zygote but randomly mixed later during development. This mixing happens in various combinations to form different types of genes in different antibody-producing cells (lymphocytes). There is also further variety introduced after the RNA is formed. Hence, each cell (lymphocyte) or its clone produces different antibody in our body.

yeah like the first person says. it all depends because there are dominant and recesive genes or chromosomes or whatever, and i think green is dominant, but if you get get 2 blues they dominate over 1 green, i think that is how it works.

Biostat girl is correct.  In the formation of gametes, the chromosomes are independently assorted, and that's after homologous recobination, where maternal genes and paternal genes aon homologous chromosomes get shifted back and forth to make completely random new chromosomes that have genes from either parent.  So the probability of complete similarity in that situation is the same as that for siblings: theoretically possible but with a statistical probability of essentially zero.

Hiq? You mean 'how?' Proetins are just gene expressions. Common genes indicate common origin. If you can trace similar genes back in different organisms, common ancestry may be revealed.

No. You are vaguely related to every one now. We are not getting closer. As mitochondrial mutation shows; the longer you are bifurcating from your common ancestor, the more you accumulate mutation and the more variety on that count alone. Not to mention somatic recombination, etc., etc..
