Thank you We sneak and here's your shmoop du jour

00:05

Brought to you by genes What an eclectic bunch This

00:09

is an inheritable unit that encodes a trait And here

00:13

the potential answers are what is this being a tight

00:15

jeans have come from a fina type is an expression

00:18

of an organism's gino type for example having genes that

00:21

allow you to roll your tongue pretty impressive there gene

00:25

simmons's of kiss it's What is in coded but is

00:28

not the encoder so not the right answer Gino type

00:32

is a sequence of genes and therefore a combination of

00:35

units not individual units themselves which means that it doesn't

00:38

quite fit the bill Here Chromosomes contain the units of

00:41

dna that determine traits But they're not the actual inheritable

00:45

unit that encodes a trait essential for life Yes even

00:49

gene simmons life but not essential for answering this question

00:52

correctly So if you were to see that leaves us

00:54

just with de gene gene simmons of kisses an inheritable

00:58

unit that encodes a trait saying we keep confusing our

01:02

genes well genes the kind that don't rock are inheritable

01:06

units of dna found on chromosomes and there the answer

01:09

We're looking for so why don't you know That is 00:01:11.455 --> [endTime] a good looking pair of jeans
