Honestly it depends on the animal but i believe it takes many and i mean many many many red genes to be dominant over a black gene. Like if you wanted a seal brown i believe that you would need to equal out the black and red genes, and to get a dark liver chesnut you would need at least two black genes and a good 10 set of red genes this is just what i believe to sort out an answer for now. :)
What else can I help you with?
Do the father gene override the mothers?
the dominant gene is not determined by mom or dad. its determined by whoever (could be either or both) has the dominant gene. not all genes over ride another gene though. codominance is possible which is where both dominant, different genes are expressed in different areas of the organism (fur color for example) in different concentrations (pink flower from red and white parent flowers is another example. what we see is the dominant red gene but since the white gene is also mixed in, our eyes see a lighter red color).
What is recessive gene and dominant gene?
A dominant gene is always expressed if present, and the recessive gene is only expressed with the homozygous recessive genotype. For example, if the dominant gene is red (represented by the letter R) and the recessive gene is white (represented by the letter r), then a homozygous dominant organism's genotype will be RR, and its phenotype will be red. If the organism is homozygous recessive, then the genotype will be rr and the phenotype will be white. If the organism is heterozygous, then the genotype will be Rr, and the organism will be red.
What gene shows up even when inherited only from one parent?
Lets say that your dad has brown hair, and your mom has red hair. The brown would be the dominant gene (B) and the red hair would be recessive (b). So you would most likely have brown hair since it is dominant. But if both parents had red hair (b) it would still be recessive. So the genes you inherited would be bb. You would then have red hair. If they both had brown (BB) then you would have brown. But if your parents did have brown and red hair, then you would have Bb. You would still then have brown hair since brown is the dominant color. But then if you have children, They would get one of each, so if you married someone with red hair, there is a possibility of your child of having red hair. I am not entirely sure if this answers the question, so I am sorry if it didn't. Hope it helped.
What is ti called when one trail is not completely dominant over another?
Co-dominance. ex) A white flower and a red flower mix genes. White flower = BB Red flower = AA They have four offspring (insert punnet square) and instead of the offspring coming out as red or white, they are pink (BA). Since both genes are homozygous dominant, they don't have anything recessive to exert their dominance on. Therefore the genes are mixed and create a new phenotype. Same goes with two homozygous recessive, since there is no dominance, their phenotypes are combined and their create anew.
How do incomplete co-dominant alleles work?
Incomplete dominance involves the combination of two dominant genes present in the phenotype of one organism. In coloured flowers, this may result in spotting or partial colour (ie; red and white spots). Co-dominance is also the combination of two dominant genes in the phenotype of one organism. In coloured flowers, this is shown as a middle shade (ie; white + red = pink).
What is a trait expressed when two different genes for the same trait present?
If the two different genes include one dominant allele and one recessive allele, which is the heterozygous genotype, the dominant phenotype is expressed. For example, if R represents the red flower allele and r represents the white flower allele, the flowers would be red. If the trait is governed by incomplete dominance, then the heterozygous genotype (Rr) will produce an intermediate phenotype, such as pink.
A gene contains both a dominant and a recessive trait?
A gene is the basic genetic unit that is used to code for something (proteins, usually). How different genes interact determines things like what you look like, etc.Alleles are the different kinds of genes. For example, the gene for the colour of a flower in a plant could be red (dominant) or white (recessive). A flower with two copies of the red allele will be red. A flower with one red and one white allele will still be red because red is dominant to white. A flower will only be white if it has two copies of the white allele because white is recessive.Anyone else can feel free to expand on this.
How is inheritance different from dominant recessive inheritance?
Dominance is when one gene completely takes over the phenotype, and codominance is when two genes are equally expressed. For example: Dominance: Red flower x yellow flower = red flower (red gene is expressed, but yellow gene isn't) Codominance: Red flower x white flower = flower with red petals and white petals (both the red gene and the white gene are expressed)
What is the dominant trait when a red-eyed fly mates with a blue-eyed fly resulting in offspring that all have red eyes?
A dominant trait, when present, is always expressed. So if the offspring of a red eyed and blue eyed mating are all red, then red must be dominant because it is the trait expressed.
Is brown or red hair the dominant gene?
Normally when the red and brown hair genes infuse with each other, the brown would come more dominant. For some notable reasons. Red hair (otherwise known as ginger hair) is a genetic mutation between blondes. Its inheritance chances are very low (usually 5-10%), while brown hair is somewhat an adaption between black hair and blonde hair. Thus with a higher chance.
Are the New York Yankees better then the Boston Red Sox?
Statistically, Yes. Currently, No. Over time, Yankees have proven to be dominant over the Red Sox. With there championship winnings and performance. But currently, they aren't. There game has, stepped down, as they say. So for now the Red Sox appear dominant over the Yankees. But history shows, Yankees have beaten the Sox many times and prove to be dominant. Currently, The Yankees are defending World Series Champions.
What are some recesive genes?
Some examples of recessive genes in humans include albinism, cystic fibrosis, and red hair. These genes only manifest themselves when an individual inherits two copies of the recessive allele, one from each parent.
