What else can I help you with?
If a dominant homozygous reproduced with a heterozygous could their offspring be recessive?
Let's see what combinations can be formed.HH, HH, Hh, Hh.So, yes their offspring can contain the recessive allele.(THe offspring can be a carrier of the recessive allele.)However, since it is impossible for the offspring to be homozygous recessive,the recessive trait/gene will not show in the offspring's phenotype.Hope that helps!
How do you know if the recessive gene will be the recessive in the offspring?
If both parents carry a recessive gene for a particular trait, there is a 25% chance that their offspring will inherit two copies of the recessive gene and exhibit the corresponding trait. This can be determined through genetic Punnett square analysis to predict the probability of different genetic outcomes in offspring.
A recessive lethal gene exists in a population and remains for several generations Which woman could have passed the recessive lethal allele to offspring but not have the disease herself?
a woman who is heterozygous for the gene
If an animal with 2 dominant genes for a trait has offspring with an animal with 2 recessive genes for same trait their offspring can only have what?
Their offspring will have dominant genes. However, if these offspring have offspring with an amimal with recessive genes, the recessive genes will show up.
If a genetic disorder is carried on a recessive gene which if any will have the disorder?
If a genetic disorder is carried on a recessive gene, offspring will only have the disorder if both parents have the recessive gene.
Is a person who is homozygous recessive for a recessive genetic diseases a carrier?
No, because he or she cannot pass the gene on to his or her offspring (because he or she does not have a copy of the gene).
. Is a person who is homozygous recessive for a recessive genetic disease a carrier?
No, because he or she cannot pass the gene on to his or her offspring (because he or she does not have a copy of the gene).
What percentage of the offspring will most likely show the dominant trait?
More information is needed. The percent of offspring that will display the recessive trait from parents with Hh and HH will be different than the percent of offspring that will display the recessive trait from parents with hh and Hh.
The probability of a homozygous recessive offspring resulting from a cross between two homozygous dominant individual is?
It depends on the parents. The parent could have two dominant genes which would give a 0% chance of the offspring being recessive. The only way that the offspring could have a recessive characteristic is if the both parents have one dominant and one recessive gene, a 25% chance. The chance that both parents would pass on the recessive gene (if they have one dominant and recessive gene) is also 25%, because there is a 50% chance for each parent.
Is a person who is homozygous recessive for a recessive genetic disese a carrier?
As long as a persons genotype consists of at least one recessive gene, they can pass it on to offspring to give them the disease, which makes them a carrier. Since this persons genes are both recessive, it is definite that they will pass on the recessive gene.
Is inherited from only one parent the offspring Will have that genetic?
Recessive gene
A plant with two recessive genes for height is crossed with a plant with one dominant and one recessive gene for height What genes will their offspring have?
hh X Hh You get two recessives; hh and hh and two heterozygous plants; Hh and Hh
