Alléljének

Alléljének is a term derived from biology, specifically genetics. It refers to the concept of the genes that an individual possesses within their genome. An allele is one of two or more alternative forms of a gene that arise by mutation and are found at the same place on a chromosome. An individual inherits two alleles for each gene, one from each parent. The combination of these alleles determines an organism's genotype, which in turn influences its observable traits or phenotype.

The term "alléljének", therefore, encapsulates the entirety of an individual's genetic makeup concerning these gene variants. Understanding an organism's alléljének is crucial for comprehending inheritance patterns, genetic predispositions to diseases, and evolutionary processes. Geneticists study alléljének to map genomes, identify genes responsible for specific characteristics, and predict the likelihood of certain traits appearing in offspring. Variations in alléljének are the basis of genetic diversity within populations.
