How does eye color pass to the young?

It is because of an inherited phenotype, a phenotype is the outward expression of genes. the source of the inherited phenotype is dependent upon whether mother or fathers genotype is consisting of dominant or recessive allele i.e a dominant allele if pair with a recessive will be the one inherited.

How do you answer apunnet square question?

A punnet square is typically used in topics involving genetics, genetic variation and gene expression. A punnet square is a simple way of showing the what possible genotypes are using the genotypes of the parents. This way we can identify the ratio and also identify the chance of having a certain offspring compared to it's recessive/dominant counterpart. To answer a punnet square question you must draw a grid. The easiest grid is usually a 3 by 3 grid. In the top squares put the fathers genotype and in the side squares put the mothers genotype. Then match them up with capitals coming first and you now have possible allele combinations and your genotype and phenotype ratio.


What is Gregor Mendel considered as?

He is considered one of the fathers of modern genetics. His work produced some of the original texts which demonstrated the concepts of inheritance and described how it works. He also explored the concepts of dominant and recessive genes.


What happens when a single gene has two alleles?

Two alleles represent a gene. ETC- The paternal (fathers) allele is B (for brown eyes) The mothers (maternal) is b ( for blue eyes) The capital B is the dominant allele, lowercase b is recessive. Therefore, a punnet square will show the offspring can be either hetrozygous or homozygous (recessive or dominant) Alleles represent the charactersitic, while a gene is a segment of DNA where heredity is based.


Is muscular dystrophy inherited?

Duchenne muscular dystrophy inheirited recessively meaning it is not passed nessicerially every generation. DMD is recessive it explain why boys commonly get it, affeted fathers pass it on to 50% of daughters and none of his sons assuming the mother is normal. The daughters aren't affected by the disease but they passes it on to 50% own sons and none of there daughters assuming the father is normal.

In a punnet square where the mothers genotype is Dd and the fathers genotype is dd does the mother or the father have dimples?

The mothers will because the father is the dominant.

Why are my daughters eyes blue while mine and her fathers are brown?

You both carried the gene for blue eyes as a recessive gene.

What can you predict by using a punnett square and the principles of probability?

You can very well give an educated guess on what the genetics of the offsring you are calculating but you need to know what the mother and fathers genetics traits are and if they are homozygous dominant, homosygous recessive, heterosygous dominant, or heterzygous recessive.


Why is genotype of the father unimportant when investigating sex-linked traits inherited by male offspring?

Fathers pass the Y sex chromosome to their sons, NOT the X sex chromosome.

According to Gail Ross and colleagues what is a good predictor of how strongly babies are attached to their fathers?

the child gende


What percentage that newborns will look like their parents?

Newborns will alway look like their parents because of the way that they are made. Embryos are a collection of cells that originated from two cells - the sperm cell and the egg cell. They then split and divide to eventually turn into a baby. The Genetic information passed onto the baby comes half from the mother and half from the father, meaning that the baby will always have characteristics of both the mother and fathers because of dominant and recessive genes being passed onto the child, such as connected earlobes or brown eyes. However characteristics that for example the grandmother had that the baby receives is because of dominant or recessive genes that were passed on in the (for example) mothers genetic makeup, that when she was made, was overpowered by a gene passed onto her from the grandfather.

If you give temporary coustody of your son to his fathers parents so you can finnish school will you have a problem getting him back if they decide they want him to stay because they got attached?

Yes, as with anyone taking the child. Will you be paying child support, or do you think mothers are not equally obligated as fathers?


What is the bood type of the child if both parents are tpe A?

I would say A, now it also depends on RH factor which is positive and negative, but usually a child will have either mothers or fathers type blood but since both are A child had to be A cause it is recessive
