What is one genetic trait that masks another form of a trait?
Polydactyly is a genetic trait that can mask the presence of the recessive trait for normal digit number in humans. This means that individuals with polydactyly (extra fingers or toes) can carry the recessive allele for normal digit number without expressing it themselves.
What is a trait that is determined by ones genes?
domanant trait
Is having five fingers or toes a recessive genetic trait?
Yes, because Polydactyly is a dominant allele.
Is six fingers a dominate trait?
Having six fingers is typically considered a polydactyly trait, which is a rare genetic variation. Whether a trait is dominant or recessive depends on the specific genetic mutation causing it. In polydactyly cases, the inheritance pattern can vary, with some being dominant and others being recessive.
Is polydactyly common in men or women?
Polydactyly is more common in men, because it is a genetic disorder. Because females have 2 X chromosomes, a recessive trait passed down on one will be covered by the dominant trait on their other X chromosome for no polydactyly. Males though, have an X and Y chromosome which means that that the Y chromosome, carrying no trait for polydactyly, will not affect an X chromosome with the allele for polydactyly. Hence, polydactyly is found in men more than women.

Is polydactyly state recessive or dominant?

Is diabetes dominant or recessive trait?
It is a recessive trait
