What else can I help you with?
What will happen if you get dominant genes from both your parents?
You will have the dominant phenotype for that trait.
Can a child be afflicted with a dominant trait if both her parents have a normal phenotype Why or why not?
No, a child cannot be afflicted with a dominant trait if both parents have a normal phenotype. This is because dominant traits require at least one copy of the dominant allele to be expressed, and if both parents have a normal phenotype, they would not carry the dominant allele to pass onto their child.
Do Parents with the dominant phenotype cannot have offspring with the recessive phenotypeous for a trait that is?
No. Parents with the dominant phenotype might be heterozygous in their genotype. This means they could carry both the dominant and recessive allele for a trait. So they could both pass the recessive allele to an offspring, who would then have the homozygous recessive genotype and recessive phenotype.
What was the phenotype of the offspring that did not share of the parents phenotype?
If both parents have the same phenotype, but the offspring did not share that phenotype, then it is likely that the parents have a dominant phenotype, but the offspring has a recessive phenotype, which means that the offpring's genotype would be homozygous recessive, and it's parents' genotypes would be heterozygous. For example, the parents may both have the genotype Bb, which gives them black fur. Approximately 25% of their offspring should have the genotype bb, which gives them the phenotype of white fur.
What was the genotype of the offspring the did not share the parents' phenotype?
If both parents have the same phenotype, but the offspring did not share that phenotype, then it is likely that the parents have a dominant phenotype, but the offspring has a recessive phenotype, which means that the offpring's genotype would be homozygous recessive, and it's parents' genotypes would be heterozygous. For example, the parents may both have the genotype Bb, which gives them black fur. Approximately 25% of their offspring should have the genotype bb, which gives them the phenotype of white fur.
What phenotype is produce by each of the following genotypes?
Genotype: AA - The phenotype is homozygous dominant, exhibiting the dominant trait. Genotype: Aa - The phenotype is heterozygous, exhibiting the dominant trait. Genotype: aa - The phenotype is homozygous recessive, exhibiting the recessive trait.
Why a student inherited a recessive phenotype of a particular characteristic even both the parent are phenotypically dominant for the characteristic?
May be the parents are heterozygous.So, the percentage for the students to inherit a recessive phenotype from the parents is 25%.
What crosses will result in dominant phenotype offspring?
Don't give us the options then!! If one parent had 2 dominant genes then all offspring would have dominant phenotype, the same goes for both parents having dominant genes.
What are the parent's genotypes when her parents has it but she doesn't?
It means that both parents have heterozygous genotype for a dominant trait, so they exhibit the dominant phenotype, but they each passed on the recessive allele to their daughter, so she has the homozygous recessive genotype, and therefore has the recessive phenotype, or trait. She could also have had a nondisjunction on one of the chromosomes inherited from her parents. She could have been adopted.
What is the genotype of the offspring that do not share the parents phenotype?
If both parents have the same phenotype, but the offspring did not share that phenotype, then it is likely that the parents have a dominant phenotype, but the offspring has a recessive phenotype, which means that the offpring's genotype would be homozygous recessive, and it's parents' genotypes would be heterozygous. For example, the parents may both have the genotype Bb, which gives them black fur. Approximately 25% of their offspring should have the genotype bb, which gives them the phenotype of white fur.
If a homozygous dominant is crossed with a homozygous recessive for a given trait the offspring will be?
The phenotype will show the dominant trait. All dominant traits mask recessive ones; If the genotype is heterozygous (One dominant and one recessive) the organism's phenotype will be dominant.
What is a dominate trait?
Dominant trait is a genetics term. A dominant trait is one which will be expressed if one of the parents has the gene for that trait. A recessive trait is one that will be expressed only if both parents carry the trait.
