How many different outcomes can you have when you have 10 alleles?
There is not enough information to answer this questions. 10 alleles in 1 loci? 10 alleles total? 10 alleles for that gene in the population?
What is a homozygous dominant offspring are?
Offspring that posses two different forms of the same gene. These are called alleles.
What is a polymorphic character?
" many bodies " traits. The three alleles for blood type is an example of this. Height/size is another example of this and many other variations in animal physiology are examples of this. Discrete traits, everybody has a heart, are in contrast to this, but even in discrete traits there are variations.
A trait has two alleles represented by p and q If p equals 0.68 what is q?
Q is represented as follow: q = 1 - 0.68 = 0.32
What is heterzygous in genes?
A heterozygous dominant gene is a gene that is more dominant in the gene pool but is made up of 2 diffrent traits passed from parent example: A heterzygous gene would be Tt for tall. The T stands for domintant trait as being tall and the t stands for the recessive trait short. All heterzygous means is that it is made up with 1 captial letter and 1 lowercase letter.
What is an organism with 2 alleles for 1 trait that are different?
The answer to your question, "What is an organism with 2 of the same alleles for a trait called?" is homozygous. it is just homozygous-By SciienceFreak
Is the trait for fur color a single gen trait or a polygenic trait?
The number of phenotypes produced for a given trait depend on how many genes control the trait. Single-gene trait: has two alleles. Fur has 1
What is the difference between the dominant and recessive allele for a trait?
An individual must have 2 recessive alleles in order for a trait to show up. One must only have 1 dominant allele in order for a trait to occur.
What is the difference between a gene and trait?
Trait is a characteristic like: tall, short, black eyes, blue eyes Trait is determine by the genes: your gene is a little section on chromosome. A gene that control 1 trait usually have 2 alleles, for ex: Blue eyes is : Bb (b or B are the alleles make up the gene that determine the trait.) hope this help for whoever confuse!
How many alleles can be in each gene?
1
What kind of allele must an organism inherit in order for a recessive trait to show up?
Neither of the parents will be affected. There may not be any one with he disease in either of the parents families (or there might be). Since each parent is a carrier and has a 50/50 chance of passing one copy of the gene to each child 1/4 of the children will not get the gene, 1/2 will be carriers (1 copy) and 1/4 wil be affected (2 copies).
How many different outcomes can you have when you have 10 alleles?
There is not enough information to answer this questions. 10 alleles in 1 loci? 10 alleles total? 10 alleles for that gene in the population?
A trait has two alleles represented by p and q If p equals 0.19 what is q?
q is 1-p = 0.81
Which did Mendel determined in his experiments on pea plants?
he determined three basic laws of genetic inheritance 1 law of dominance:each trait has two forms and one is shown in phenotype 2 law of segragation: each person have two alleles for a trait and the alleles do not blend rather they segragate during gamet production 3 independent assortment: each trait behaves independently meaning that which allele is segregated to which daughter cell does not effect the other alleles of different traits unless there is linkage between genes but mendel didnt know that genes coud be linked so his conclusion was made assuming that every trait's(inherited via genes)behavior was independent
What is a homozygous dominant offspring are?
Offspring that posses two different forms of the same gene. These are called alleles.
Difference between genes and alleles?
A gene is a trait, an allele are the many variations present in a population for a specific gene.Example I have 1 gene for eye color, but there may be 3 alleles in a population (brown eyes, blue eyes, green eyes.)(keep in mind my examples information is fictitious but it explains alleles)

" many bodies " traits. The three alleles for blood type is an example of this. Height/size is another example of this and many other variations in animal physiology are examples of this.
