Alleles are represented as: Gg
Where G is the dominant trait and g is the recessive trait
Therefore, homozygous dominant would be: GG
Homozygous recessive would be: gg
and heterozygous would be Gg

A genetics tool that uses letters to represent dominant and recessive alleles?
A punnet square uses letters to represent dominant and recessive alleles.
What term describes a pair of alleles that are the same?
Alleles that are the same = homozygous Alleles that are different = heterozygous
What do the letters represent in punnett square crosses?
The letters represent the alleles, or variations, of a given trait. So for example T might represent tall and t represents short. The capital letter always corresponds to the dominant trait and the lowercase letter corresponds to the recessive trait.
A trait has two alleles represented by p and q if p equals 0.42 what is q?
0.65
Why do you have to pull two alleles (two straws) from the bag to represent one fish?
For most organism's any trait is usually determined by two alleles/"genetic codes" for that trait (one from each parent). For example, your eye or hair color results from a combination of your mother and father's genes (one allele from each for hair/eye color). So, a specific trait for a fish follows the same process by which two alleles (one from each parent) are needed to represent the fish.
A genetics tool that uses letters to represent dominant and recessive alleles?
A punnet square uses letters to represent dominant and recessive alleles.
What are three different alleles used to represent blood type?
The three alleles are A, B, and O
What does an alleles for a hybrid tall pea represent?
Its sophia
What term describes a pair of alleles that are the same?
Alleles that are the same = homozygous Alleles that are different = heterozygous
Do Geneticists use letters to represent the alleles of organisms?
yes
Geneticists use letters to represent the alleles of organisms true or false?
true
Are alleles recessive?
Alleles can be either dominant or recessive. They can be identical or different for any given gene in a somatic cell, and can represent alternative forms of a gene.
What letters are given in genetics to represent the dominate allele?
capital letters, such as PP equals two dominant alleles, pp equals two recessive alleles.
When a plant has two recessive alleles for short stems its alleles are written?
well it depends on the letters that you are given, recessive alleles are ALWAYS lower case.An example answer would be: ss, where s would represent the recessive allele.
Geneticists use letters to represent the alleles of organisms?
Geneticists use probability to predict possible genotypes and phenotypes
What do the letters represent in punnett square crosses?
The letters represent the alleles, or variations, of a given trait. So for example T might represent tall and t represents short. The capital letter always corresponds to the dominant trait and the lowercase letter corresponds to the recessive trait.
The hardy-weinberg principle is written as an equation p2 plus 2pq plus q2 1 What does the q represent?
p and q represent the frequencies of two types of alleles.
