The nitrogen oxides are not all bad. They are both used in the lead chamber process as catalysts to convert SO2 to SO3, which is the essential first step in the production of sulphuric acid. They are also precursors in the Ostwald Process for the manufacture of nitric acid (see below).
Single Gene Traits in Humans. The following is a list of some autosomal human traits that have been attributed to a single gene. Although clearly other genes are involved, the inheritance of each of these phenotypic traits acts as if it were governed by a single gene. First, indicate your expression of the trait (i.e., circle the appropriate phenotype).
A gene is a stretch of DNA or RNA that determines a certain trait. Genes mutate and can take two or more alternative forms; an allele is one of these forms of a gene. For example, the gene for eye color has several variations (alleles) such as an allele for blue eye color or an allele for brown eyes. An allele is found at a fixed spot on a chromosome.
