What is the heterozygous for the A allele?
Heterozygous Aa Homozygous AA, aa
Is AA a homozygous genotype?
homozygous = AA & AA Heterozygous = Aa
What cross shows homozygous dominant mating with heterozygous?
AA (dominant) mating with aa (recessive) -----> Aa
What is an example of two heterozygous parents?
The possible genotypes of parents who are heterozygous would be found using a punnet square. The outcome would be 50 percent heterozygous dominant, 25 percent homozygous dominant, and 25 percent homozygous recessive.
What is when an individual has two copies of a dominant allele?
The person is considered to be heterozygous dominant. Heterozygous refers to having to of the same allele (AA or AA). dominant means AA not 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 difference between homozygous and heterozygous?
Heterozygous is when the organism has two different alleles for a traitHomozygous is when they have two of the same the sameexample of homozygous= two blue eyesexample of heterozygous= one blue eye and one green eyeHomozygous is when the combination of alleles are the same. EX: AA or BB. Heterozygous are when the combination of alleles are different. EX: Aa or Bb.
What is the probability that an individual heterozygous for a cleft chin and individual homozygous for chin without cleft will produce offsprings that are homozygous recessive for chin without cleft?
The probability that an individual heterozygous for a cleft chin and an individual homozygous for a chin without a cleft will produce offspring that are homozygous recessive for a chin without a cleft is fifty percent. You can calculate this by making a Punnet square.
The offspring of two parents that are heterozygous for a given trait have a percent chance of being homozygous for that trait?
This would result in 1 heterozygous offspring. You can think of it like this: If the first parent is homozygous it would have AA alleles, the second heterozygous parent would be AB. When they mix genetically it would result in 4 combinations: AA, AA, AA, AB. As there is only one B there can only be one heterozygous offspring. This is not expected it is certain.
What kind of alleles does a heterozygous individual have?
2, it means that both of the alleles are different when compared to homozygous. Homozygous alleles are like aa or AA. Heterozygous simply means Aa so it has one dominant and one recessive allele
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.
Two a blood types equal what blood type?
If they're both homozygous (AA, AA): A is produced. If they're both heterozygous (Ai, Ai): A or O is produced. If one of them is heterozygous and the other not (Ai, AA): A is produced.
