One allele is not completely dominant over another The heterozygous phenotype is somewhere in between the two homozygous phenotypes?

You get aspects of each trait displayed. Like, if one cat had a solid colored orange fur, and it's mate was brown, you could get a mottled cat. Or if one parent has brown eyes, and the other green, hazel eyes could occur.

What is the type of allele that only effect the phenotype in the homozygous chromosome?
Recessive. Dominant alleles are expressed in both homozygous and heterozygous individuals (DD or Dd), but recessive alleles are only expressed in homozygous individuals (dd).
What are The observable traits of an organism are?
phenotype
What does a heterozygous organism have?
It depends on the context. The only way to demonstrate practically that an organism is homozygous for a particular trait is to cross it (breed it) with another showing the recessive phenotype for that trait. When enough ofspring have been produced to be statistally significant then the conclusion can be drawn. It may also be possible to deduce whether an organism is homozygous by knowing the genotypes of the parents. Also, if you already know which phenotype is dominant then an organism showing the recessive phenotype is, by definition, homozygous. Of course, this all only applies to single gene inheritance!
What is a person who has one recessive allele for a trait and one dominant allele for the same trait and is able to pass in the trait on to their offspring?
That is heterozygous. Some scientist call these "hybrids"(no joke)The person is heterozygous for that trait and will have the dominant phenotype.An organism with both a dominant and recessive allele for a specific trait is called an heterozygote. They are heterozygous for this trait.
Why are there so many phenotypes in polygenic inheritance?
Polygenic means many genes are influencing one trait. So, the inheritance of this gives you are all sorts of combination of genes that are expressed in various phenotypes. As example think of the different heights of siblings. There are 5 to 7 genes that influence height and in the same relative environment of siblings you get many combinations of those genes which express themselves in different height same sex siblings.
How is phenotype expressed in a incomplete dominance?
It's expressed when a heterozygous phenotype is between two homozygous phenotypes.
Condition that exists when the heterozygous phenotype is somewhere in between the two homozygous phenotypes?
Incomplete dominance
What is the genotype and phenotype of homozygous?
Are you talking about phenotype or genotype? Phenotype is the expression of the genotype. Genotype is what you inherited. Phenotype is what you see. Homozygous is the same. Heterozygous is different. If you inherit one allele for blue eyes and one allele for brown eyes, your phenotype should be brown eyes. Your genotype would be brown eyes, blue eyes. You would have a heterozygous genotype.
What is the phenotype of homozygous yellow grained corn and heterozygous yellow grained corn?
The phenotype (as I assume would be colour) for both homozygous and heterozygous yellow-grained corn is yellow.
How are codominant alleles and incompletely dominant similar?
Codominance and incomplete dominance can only exist if the genotype has heterozygous alleles.
How many alleles influence a phenotype in incomplete dominance?
A trait that exhibits incomplete dominance, is one in which the heterozygous offspring will have a phenotype that is a blend between the two parent organisms. An example of this is when a homozygous red sweet pea flower crossed with a homozygous white sweet pea flower, their offspring will be heterozygous and have the pink phenotype, rather than either red or white. So, the homozygous red flower will be red, the homozygous white flower will be white, and the heterozygous flower will be pink. So there are three possible phenotypes in incomplete dominance. There are also no dominant or recessives genotypes.
How is incomplete dominance expressed in phenotype?
In complete dominance, only one allele in the genotype is seen in the phenotype. In codominance, both alleles in the genotype are seen in the phenotype. In incomplete dominance, a mixture of the alleles in the genotype is seen in the phenotype.
What Alleles that display equal power in determining a phenotype?
Homozygous dominant and heterozygous both are a dominant phenotype.
A homozygous blue flower BB is crossed with a homozygous white flower bb What are the possible genotypes and phenotypes of the offspring?
Assuming there is no co-dominance or partial dominance, the result would be that 100% of the offspring would be blue, heterozygous flowers with the phenotype Bb.
What ratio of genotypes and phenotypes are found after two heterozygous indivividual are crossed for a trait of earlobes?
Genotypes (phenotype) 25% homozygous dominant (free earlobes) 25% homozygous recessive (attached earlobes) 50% heterozygous (free earlobes) 75% phenotypically dominant (free earlobes) 25% phenotyically recessive (attached earlobes) Ratios Genotype 1:1:2 Phenotype 3:1
If dad has freckles and is homozygous and mom has freckles and is heterozygous what phenotypes and genotypes can you expect their offspring?
Alright, I suppose I will do your homework for you.. Here is your punnet square: F F F FF FF f Ff ff Therefore, 3/4, or 75%, offspring will have the phenotype of having freckles, and 1/4, or 25% will have the phenotype of no freckles. And 2/4, or 50%, of the offspring will have the genotype for homozygous for freckles, 1/4, or 25%, of the offspring will carry a heterozygous trait for freckles, and 1/4, or 25%, of the offspring will have the phenotype for homozygous no freckles.
What is the probabilty that the offspring of a homozygous domiant idiviual and a homozygous recessive indiviual will exbhit the domaint phenotype?
100% heterozygous dominant
