True about polymorphism is: (PGI Dec 2006)
Single locus - multiple normal alleles
Single locus - multiple abnormal alleles
Single phenotype: single Iocus->multiple normal alleles multiple abnormal alleles
Single phenotype: Single !ocus->>multiple abnormal alleles.
Ans: D (Single phenotype, single locus, - multiple allele] Polymorphisms is single phenotype, single locus & mu Itipie normal allele(r)Polymorphisms# Clinically ,'iarmless variationQ of DNA sequence# Normal variation in DNA sequence that have frequency of at least 1%. Usally, they don't result in a perceptible phenotype i.e,phenotype same'Q.They constitutes: Single base-pair substitution (often) & Deletions and insertionsThey don't alter protein coding sequence probaly due to degeneracy of genetic code although it is possible that it might alter mRNA stability, translation or aminoacid sequences.
