And remember, NEVER put petroleum-or mineral oil-based products on a sunburn. Because they form a seal, they'll lock in the heat into your skin, making the burn worse, not better. It could even lead to permanent scarring. Petroleum-based products form a seal on your skin...
Homozygous (or Purebred) - The genotype for the characteristic has the same genes/alleles (e.g. BB, bb). Heterozygous (or Hybrid) - The genotype for the characteristic has different genes/alleles (e.g. Bb). Wild-type - The most common phenotypes in a population are called the wild-type.
noun The normal condition of a whole organism (wild-type strain) or a particular mutation at a locus or site, which is indicated by a plus sign. The allele of a particular gene that confers the phenotype considered to be the normal type commonly found in natural populations.Because some DNA sequence polymorphisms do not produce different phenotypes, there can be multiple wild-type alleles of a gene.Molecular biology.he allele of a particular gene that confers the phenotype considered to be the normal type commonly found in natural populations. Because some DNA sequence polymorphisms do not produce different phenotypes, there can be multiple wild-type alleles of a gene. Molecular biology.
