∙ 14y agoAa means heterozygous; A is the dominate trait, and a is the recessive trait.

∙ 12y agoNo. Two of the same alleles does mean that it is homozygous, but when the letters are uppercase it means that it is dominant. If it were "aa" then it would be homozygous recessive.

What is the heterozygous for the A allele?
Heterozygous Aa Homozygous AA, aa
If the male parent has the genotype AAA and the female parent has the genotype AAA offsprings genotype will be?
The offspring's genotype will be AA. Both parents are homozygous dominant, AA, having only dominant alleles to pass on to their offspring. So each parent can pass on only the dominant allele (A) to its offspring. So the offspring will also be homozygous dominant, AA.
What percentage of the possible types of offspring had the same genotype as the parents?
That depends entirely on the genotypes of the parents.
What phenotype is produced by AB genotype?
The genotype AA represents a homozygous dominant genotype. The capital letter "A" represents the dominant allele, while the lowercase letter "a" would represent the recessive allele. If both dominant alleles are present in a genotype (homozygous dominant) then the phenotype is "A" phenotype. If one dominant allele and one recessive allele are present (heterozygous dominant) then the phenotype is "A". Finally, if both recessive alleles "a" are present (homozygous recessive) then the phenotype is "a". Therefore, the answer to your question is the genotype AA would result in an "A" phenotype because the genotype is homozygous dominant.
What word describes an organism that has the genotype Bb?
The most accurate description of an organism with genotype AaBb is heterozygous. A homozygous genotype is aaBB and AA.
What is the heterozygous for the A allele?
Heterozygous Aa Homozygous AA, aa
If the male parent has the genotype AAA and the female parent has the genotype AAA offsprings genotype will be?
The offspring's genotype will be AA. Both parents are homozygous dominant, AA, having only dominant alleles to pass on to their offspring. So each parent can pass on only the dominant allele (A) to its offspring. So the offspring will also be homozygous dominant, AA.
If a plant has genotype BB what describes the plant?
A. homozygous at two loci (AA & cc).
What percentage of the possible types of offspring had the same genotype as the parents?
That depends entirely on the genotypes of the parents.
What phenotype is produced by AB genotype?
The genotype AA represents a homozygous dominant genotype. The capital letter "A" represents the dominant allele, while the lowercase letter "a" would represent the recessive allele. If both dominant alleles are present in a genotype (homozygous dominant) then the phenotype is "A" phenotype. If one dominant allele and one recessive allele are present (heterozygous dominant) then the phenotype is "A". Finally, if both recessive alleles "a" are present (homozygous recessive) then the phenotype is "a". Therefore, the answer to your question is the genotype AA would result in an "A" phenotype because the genotype is homozygous dominant.
Is the genotypeAA a homozygous dominant or heterzygous dominant?
The two AA genes are the same uppercase letter, so they are homozygous. 'Homo' means 'same'. If the genotype was Aa, it would be heterozygous, because 'hetero' means 'different'.
What genotype will be produced by a heterozygous?
The trait that would be expressed in a heterozygous genotype would be the dominant trait. If one allele is dominant then it will be expressed.
Do a punnett square for one parent having AAA and the other having AAA?
For the two given parents: 1 offspring will have the homozygous genotype: YY 1 offspring will have the homozygous genotype: yy 2 offspring will have the heterozygous genotype: Yy
What word describes an organism that has the genotype Bb?
The most accurate description of an organism with genotype AaBb is heterozygous. A homozygous genotype is aaBB and AA.
What is homozygous and heterozygous genotypes and the notation used to express them?
Homozygous or heterozygous are terms used to describe the genotype of a diploid organism at a locus of the DNA. Homozygous means that the organism has the same two alleles at that locus denoted by AA for dominant alleles or AA for recessive. Heterozygous means that the organism has two different alleles at that locus and is denoted Aa.
What is the pair of AAA genotype?
homozygous? homozygous? homozygous dominant
What are the types of homozygous traits you can get from punnet squares?
AA: Homozygous dominant aa: Homozygous recessive
