Which allele combination represents a female who has a heterozygous sex-linked trait?
A female with a heterozygous sex-linked trait typically has one dominant allele and one recessive allele for that trait. Since sex-linked traits are often associated with the X chromosome, the allele combination would be represented as XᴴXʰ, where Xᴴ is the X chromosome carrying the dominant allele and Xʰ is the X chromosome carrying the recessive allele. This combination indicates that the female expresses the dominant trait but is a carrier of the recessive trait.
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.
What is the phenotype of a female with two dominant alleles?
The phenotype of a female with two dominant alleles will express the traits associated with those dominant alleles. For example, if the dominant alleles are for a specific trait like flower color, she will display that dominant trait. Since dominant alleles mask the effects of recessive alleles, there will be no expression of any recessive traits associated with those genes. Overall, her phenotype will reflect the characteristics determined by the dominant alleles.
What type of trait prevents the other type from being seen?
A recessive trait. When a recessive allele is with a dominant allele, only the dominanate trait can be seen.
A living thing that shows a dominant trait may be homozygous dominant or homozygous recessive for the trait true or false?
False because a living thing that shows a dominant trait can not be homozygous recessive. If it is homozygous recessive it will show recessive trait. A living thing that shows dominant trait may be homozygous dominant or hetrozygous.
What is a trait that masks a trait called?
A trait that masks another trait is called a dominant trait. This means that when an organism carries both dominant and recessive alleles for a particular gene, only the dominant trait will be expressed in the phenotype.
A trait that appears or is expressed in the f1 generation is what?
A trait that appears or is expressed in the F1 generation is considered dominant. Dominant traits will manifest themselves in the offspring when at least one parent carries the dominant allele for that trait.
The form of a trait that appears to mask another form the same trait is called what?
The form of a trait that appears to mask another form of the same trait is called the dominant trait. Dominant traits will be expressed over recessive traits in a heterozygous individual.
What is an observable trait of an organism that can mask a recessive trait?
The observable characteristic are called the genotype and any dominant trait can mask the recessive. An example would be Black Angus cattle can actually carry a red recessive trait because black is the dominant trait in cattle breeding
What does it mean that an organism is homozygous dominant for a trait?
Homozygous Dominant for a trait means that an organism has two dominant alleles for that trait. Here's an example: Trait: Widow's Peak Widow's Peak allele: Dominant (D) No widow's peak allele: Reccessive(d) Homozygous Dominant (DD) Homozygous Reccessive (dd) Heterozygous (Dd)
Is the trait of raising one eyebrow dominant or recessive?
The trait of raising one eyebrow is considered to be a dominant trait.
In a hybrid individual the trait that is covered and not expressed is the what trait?
recessive
