Gene Kelly's role in Inherit The Wind?
Gene Kelly played as E.K. Hornbeck, the news reporter, in the 1960 movie, Inherit the Wind.
What happen when both parents Carrie a ressavie of gene?
If both parents carry a recessive gene, there is a 25% chance that their child will inherit two copies of the recessive gene, leading to the expressed trait or condition. There is a 50% chance the child will inherit one copy of the gene and be a carrier like the parents, and a 25% chance the child will not inherit the gene at all. This is based on the principles of Mendelian genetics.
Will a person with huntington's disease pass the disease to his offspring?
Maybe. Huntington's IS an inherited disease. It is carried on a Dominant gene. That means if one parent has the HD gene, and the other parent does not, then the odds are 50-50 that any one child born to that couple COULD inherit that gene, which will result in their developing HD. However, if you do NOT inherit that gene- it stops there. Unlike some genetic diseases, you cannot be a carrier of HD if you do not have it.
Which parental pair could produce female with color blindness?
X' = color blindnessX'X'-- X --X'Yis a cross that could lead to a color blind female as the mother is homozygous recessive and the father's X chromosome is the recessive color blind trait.
Which law states that organisms inherit two copies of each gene and donate one copy to each of their offspring?
Mendel's Law of Segregation states that organisms inherit two copies of each gene, and during gamete formation, these copies separate so that each gamete receives only one copy of the gene. This ensures that offspring inherit one copy of each gene from each parent.
What is the Mode of inheritance hemophilia?
Transmitted by a dominant gene. If that gene is inherited from either parent, the offspring will develop HD. If the gene is NOT inherited, then the offspring will not have HD- AND cannot pass the gene to their offspring.
What is requires for a person to have sickle cell disease?
The person is homozygous for the trait
Why do African Americans get black circles around their toes?
I suppose they inherit it as a gene.
Is the Huntingtons gene inherited as a dominant or ressisive gene?
The Huntington's gene is inherited as a dominant gene. This means that a person only needs to inherit one copy of the mutated gene from either parent to develop the condition.
Mendels law of segregation states that organisms inherit two copies of each gene and that?
Mendel's law of segregation states that organisms inherit two copies of each gene and that organism donate copies to offspring in predictable ratios.
What would your parents blood types have to be to have a child with O positive blood type?
At least one parent would have to have an RH Positive blood type. Beyond that you can not tell. Because the O trait is a recessive trait, either parent could have A or B or O blood, since, for example, a parent with A blood could have one A gene and one O gene that together would express the A trait. That parent's child could inherit either the A gene or the O gene. The other parent could have B based upon one B gene and one O gene that together would express the B trait. That other parent's child could inherit either the B gene or the O gene. Only if the child of both parents inherited an O gene from each parent, would the child have O blood. As to the RH factor, it is a dominant trait, so that if the child has the trait expressed, it would have to have been in one of the two parents. Hope this helps.
Can you inherit genes from distant cousins?
No, you can only inherit genes from your direct ancestors (parents, grand parents, great grandparents, etc.) However, both you and a distant cousin could have inherited the same gene from a common ancestor. There is no way your cousins can pass anything to you.
