Absolutely, yet the genes that control this attribute may or may not have been identified - we'll have to ask someone else.

Are gamete cells mutations and somatic cells mutations inheritable?

Since only gamete cells actually participate in the creation of a new organism, it is only the mutations in gamete cells which are inheritable; mutations in somatic cells are not inheritable.


Is an altered gene in a zygote inheritable?

Yes, an altered gene in a zygote can be inheritable as it becomes part of the offspring's genetic makeup. This alteration can be passed on to future generations through the germline cells.


Do most inheritable differences occur during the production of gametes due to gene shuffling?

Yes, most inheritable differences occur during the production of gametes through processes like gene shuffling during meiosis. This leads to genetic variation in offspring as a result of the combination of genetic material from two parents.


What would New inheritable characteristics would least likely result from?

New inheritable characteristics that are least likely to result from random mutations include complex structural traits, such as the development of entirely new organs or systems within an organism, or drastic changes in fundamental genetic information. Such changes would require coordinated and precise alterations to multiple genes, which are less likely to arise from random mutations alone.


Can you permanently lose your voice from laryngitis?

It is possible, if your laryngitis is serious and goes untreated for four weeks. If it is clear that it is laryngitis and lasts close to a month's time, you need to get it checked. This could lead to permanent voice damage if not checked my a doctor or E.N.T doctor either. However, the chances of you losing your voice permanently are very low, and even if you did have laryngitis, you would have to be forcing your voice to do things like, say, belting Adele's "Rolling in the Deep" as loud as you can everyday on a regular basis.
