How could a guinea pig breeder whether a rough-coated guinea pig is homozygous or heteorzygous for this trait?
A rough-coat is recessive for this trait. Thus a rough-coat is heterozygous and a smooth-coat is homozygous.
Is AA an homozygous or an heterozygous?
AA could be either homozygous or heterozygous, depending on whether the individual inherited the same allele (A) from both parents (homozygous) or different alleles (Aa) from each parent (heterozygous).
What determines whether an organism is heterozygous or homozygous dominant?
The second allele. If a plant is heterozygous tall, it is Tt. In this case, the dominant trait is tall, T and recessive is short, t. There are two options for it to be dominant, heterozygous (Tt) or homozygous (TT)
Is it easier to analyze genotype by observing phenotype in organisms with complete dominance or in organisms with incomplete dominance?
It is easier to analyze genotype by observing phenotype in organisms with incomplete dominance (also known as codominance), because in incomplete dominance the individual will show a specific phenotype for each situation, whether it is homozygous dominant, heterozygous, or homozygous recessive. For example, in flowers, such as the ones that Mendel studied, a homozygous dominant flower will be red, a homozygous recessive flower will be white, and a heterozygous flower will be pink. In complete dominance, a heterozygous will only express the dominant phenotype, as opposed to incomplete dominance, in which a heterozygous individual will express a phenotype that is representative of both of the dominant and recessive traits. Because heterozygous individuals in complete dominance express the dominant phenotype, it is hard to determine whether the genotype is homozygous dominant or heterozygous for the trait. Hope this helps!
How is a genetic test cross helpful?
it helps to know whether the F1 generation is in homozygous or in heterozygous condition
How do two heterozygous organisms produce on offspring with a recessive phenotype?
There are two forms of Homozygous inheritance: Homozygous Dominant, and Homozygous Recessive. In order for two parents that are Homozygous to produce a Heterozygous offspring, one of them MUST be Homozygous Dominant, and the other MUST be Homozygous Recessive.
You are A your wife is O- what will the child be?
Your child can be anything. It doesn't really matter what the parents are. Anything that runs through the family your child can be. The chances of being an O are very small but it is still possible. It depends on whether or not you are homozygous or heterozygous A. All O blood is genetically homozygous. If you are blood type AO then there is a 50% chance of Homozygous O (OO) and 50% chance of heterozygous A (AO). If you are Blood type AA then there is a 100% chance of heterozygous A (AO)
What is the difference between homozgous and heterozygous?
Heterozygous vs. Homozygous: These terms refer to genetic mutations. There are two copies of the protein codes in the genetic code. If one copy is normal and the other has the mutation, it is said to be heterozygous. If both copies have the mutation, it is said to be homozygous. For example: A/A -- homozygous. A/a -- heterozygous. a/A -- heterozygous. a/a -- homozygous.Homologous refers to the pair of chromosomes that are the same whilst Homozygous refers to the fact that alleles of a gene pair are the same
Are homozygous true breeding for a particular trait?
yes. no matter whether they are homozygous dominant or recessive.
If a homozygous brown mink is mated with a silver-blue mink and 8 offspring are produced how many would be silver-blue?
It depends on which trait is dominant and whether the silver-blue mink is homozygous or heterozygous.
How is dominant trait and recessive trait related?
They are related to each other because whether they are dominant or recessive they are both homozygous, meaning the same. They can either be homozygous dominant or homozygous recessive. If they are heterozygous then they are different because it contains one dominant and one recessive allele each. EX: AA=homozygous dominant allele aa=homozygous recessive allele Aa=heterozygous allele
Which is a heterozygous or hydrid genotype?
A heterozygous genotype consists of a dominant gene and a recessive gene. Homozygous genotypes consist of two dominant genes (Homozygous Dominant) ro two recessive genes (Homozygous Recessive).Heterozygous: XxHomozygous: Dom. XXRec. xx
