Difference between Eye color and Gene

Eye color vs. Gene

Eye color is a polygenic phenotypic character determined by two distinct factors: the pigmentation of the eye's iris and the frequency-dependence of the scattering of light by the turbid medium in the stroma of the iris. In biology, a gene is a sequence of DNA or RNA that codes for a molecule that has a function.

Similarities between Eye color and Gene

Eye color and Gene have 8 things in common (in Unionpedia): Directionality (molecular biology), Dominance (genetics), Gene pool, Intron, Phenotype, Polygene, Promoter (genetics), Regulatory sequence.

Directionality (molecular biology)

Directionality, in molecular biology and biochemistry, is the end-to-end chemical orientation of a single strand of nucleic acid.

Dominance (genetics)

Dominance in genetics is a relationship between alleles of one gene, in which the effect on phenotype of one allele masks the contribution of a second allele at the same locus.

Gene pool

The gene pool is the set of all genes, or genetic information, in any population, usually of a particular species.

Intron

An intron is any nucleotide sequence within a gene that is removed by RNA splicing during maturation of the final RNA product.

Phenotype

A phenotype is the composite of an organism's observable characteristics or traits, such as its morphology, development, biochemical or physiological properties, behavior, and products of behavior (such as a bird's nest).

Polygene

A "polygene” or "multiple gene inheritance" is a member of a group of non-epistatic genes that interact additively to influence a phenotypic trait.

Promoter (genetics)

In genetics, a promoter is a region of DNA that initiates transcription of a particular gene.

Regulatory sequence

A regulatory sequence is a segment of a nucleic acid molecule which is capable of increasing or decreasing the expression of specific genes within an organism.
