What else can I help you with?
An organism that carries both the dominant and recessive versions of a particular trait is a?
Heterozygous
If an offspring receives a pair of trait-controllers containing both a dominant and a recessive trait what happens to the recessive trait?
The dominant trait is shown in that organism with the possibility of carrying either the dominant or recessive gene to the next generation
What does it mean that an organism is homozygous dominant for a trait?
Homozygous Dominant for a trait means that an organism has two dominant alleles for that trait. Here's an example: Trait: Widow's Peak Widow's Peak allele: Dominant (D) No widow's peak allele: Reccessive(d) Homozygous Dominant (DD) Homozygous Reccessive (dd) Heterozygous (Dd)
What is an organism that receives different alleles for a trait from each parent?
An organism that receives different alleles for a trait from each parent is called a heterozygote. This means that the individual has two different versions of a gene, one from each parent, which may result in a variety of different phenotypic outcomes.
When a organism has two different alleles coding for a single trait it is?
heterozygous. This means the organism has inherited two different versions of a gene that code for the same trait. One allele may be dominant and the other recessive, influencing the organism's phenotype.
What is an observable trait of an organism that can mask a recessive trait?
The observable characteristic are called the genotype and any dominant trait can mask the recessive. An example would be Black Angus cattle can actually carry a red recessive trait because black is the dominant trait in cattle breeding
An organism carrying one dominant and dominant and one recessive allele for a particular trait would be what for that trait?
Heterozygous.
What is a trait that masks a trait called?
A trait that masks another trait is called a dominant trait. This means that when an organism carries both dominant and recessive alleles for a particular gene, only the dominant trait will be expressed in the phenotype.
If an organism has alleles BB?
The organism is homozygous dominant for that trait.
What trait is the one that is expressed in a hybrid organism?
dominant
What happens if an organism has two factors for a domintnat trait?
If an organism has two factors (alleles) for a dominant trait, the dominant allele will be expressed in the phenotype. This is because dominant traits mask the effect of recessive alleles, so the presence of two dominant alleles will result in the dominant trait being displayed.
An organism which the two genes for a given trait different?
An organism that has two different alleles for a given trait is referred to as heterozygous for that trait. For example, if one allele codes for a dominant trait and the other for a recessive trait, the dominant trait will typically be expressed in the organism's phenotype. This genetic variation can contribute to diversity within a population and may influence the organism's adaptability to its environment.
