A homozygous dominant brown mouse is crossed with a heterozygous brown mouse (White is the recessive color)?
Genotypic ratio : Phenotypic ratio:
A pretty bow
What else can I help you with?
If a heterozygous plant for seed color is crossed with a homozygous recessive plant what is the probability of each seed color being produced?
100%
Individual heterozygous for a trait and an individual homozygous recessive for the trait are crossed and produce many offspring?
The offspring will all inherit one copy of the dominant allele (from the heterozygous parent) and one copy of the recessive allele (from the homozygous recessive parent). This results in all offspring being heterozygous for the trait.
A parent that is homozygous for a dominant trait is crossed with a parent that is homozygous for the recessive trait What percentage of the offspring will display the dominant trait?
100% of the offspring will display the dominant trait because the homozygous dominant parent can only pass on the dominant allele. The offspring will inherit one dominant allele from the dominant parent and one recessive allele from the recessive parent, resulting in a heterozygous genotype expressing the dominant trait.
If 240 plant offspring were produced from crossing two heterozygous plants how many would be homozygous?
Out of the 240 offspring, approximately 60 would be homozygous (25% of 240). This is because when two heterozygous plants are crossed (Aa x Aa), the Punnett square shows that 25% of the offspring will be homozygous dominant (AA), 50% will be heterozygous (Aa), and 25% will be homozygous recessive (aa).
What is an example of two heterozygous parents?
The possible genotypes of parents who are heterozygous would be found using a punnet square. The outcome would be 50 percent heterozygous dominant, 25 percent homozygous dominant, and 25 percent homozygous recessive.
In a testcross an individual who is is crossed with an individual who is .?
In a testcross, an individual with a dominant phenotype but unknown genotype is crossed with an individual that is homozygous recessive for the same trait. This helps determine the unknown genotype of the dominant individual based on the phenotypic ratios of the offspring. If any offspring display the recessive phenotype, it indicates that the dominant parent is heterozygous. Conversely, if all offspring show the dominant phenotype, the dominant parent is likely homozygous.
If a homozygous dominant is crossed with a homozygous recessive for a given trait the offspring will be?
The phenotype will show the dominant trait. All dominant traits mask recessive ones; If the genotype is heterozygous (One dominant and one recessive) the organism's phenotype will be dominant.
What would the offspring most likely be if an individual with a heterozygous trait and an individual with a homozgous recessive trait crossed be?
The offspring would have a 50% chance of being heterozygous and showing the dominant trait and a 50% chance of being homozygous for the recessive trait.
In which offspring does a dominant trait appear?
A dominant trait will appear in offspring that inherits at least one copy of the dominant allele from either parent. If an individual has two different alleles for a trait (one dominant and one recessive), the dominant trait will be expressed.
Explain why the homozygous recessive would always be used in a test cross?
The homozygous recessive individual is used in a test cross to determine the genotype of an individual with a dominant phenotype but unknown genotype. When crossed with a homozygous recessive individual, if any offspring display the recessive trait, it indicates that the unknown individual is heterozygous for that trait.
What is the likelihood of a recessive trait being expressed if your offspring is crossed with a homozygous dominant eye shape prove your answer in a cross?
If you cross a homozygous dominant individual (AA) with a heterozygous individual (Aa), the offspring will have a genotype ratio of 100% dominant phenotype (AA or Aa) and 0% recessive phenotype (aa). Therefore, if your offspring has a homozygous dominant trait (AA), the likelihood of expressing a recessive trait (aa) is 0%. The Punnett square for this cross would show all dominant traits, confirming that recessive traits cannot be expressed in this scenario.
What is the difference fom heterozygous and homozygous recessive?
In genetics, you can either have a dominant allele (A) or a recessive allele (a). Being homozygous means that you have both of either a dominant or a recessive allele (ie you are either AA or aa). If the trait is a recessive trait, then you need to have it be homozygous recessive in order to express that trait. Hope this was helpful! :-)
