In a case of simple dominance what is the height of a plant with the genotype Tt?

The plants will all express the dominant gene.


What are the homozygous letters of a tall parent?

Uhh.. theoretically, if you were to represent a tall parent's genotype they would be something like TT, but it's much more complicated than that. Height is a multifactorial polygenic trait that can't be expressed as a single genotype, practically.


What is dominate tallness or shortness?

4get genetics, height mainly depends on amounts of exercise, stretching, B vitamins, and calcium. Vitamins D, E, K, A, and F are also very important to your growth. Try looking for iodine and phosphorous which can be found in table salts and asparagus. Even though asparagus tastes like doo-doo, you can still marinate it in lemon or strawberry, but since the tip of the asparagus is the healthiest part, that's all you have to eat. By the way, I'm pretty sure that with males the taller gene is more dominat, with females the the shorter gene is more dominant.

What is the difference between monohybrid crosses dihybrid crosses incomplete dominance multiple alleles sex linked genes and polygenetic inheritance?

Monohydbid crosses is the inheritance of a single allele or variation of a gene for example, pink or blue petal colour on a flower monohybrid crosses is the inheritance of two alleles or variation of two genes on separate chromosomes for example, pink or blue petal colour on a flower AND tall or short stem of flower incomplete dominance AKA codominance is when both alleles (variations of the characteristic) show equal dominace, for example a homozygous black cat would have the genotype BB, and a homozygous white cat would have the genotype WW, however a heterozygous cat with the genotype with BW would be grey as both characteristics would show. multiple alleles is more than 2 characteristics of one gene for example A, B and O blookd grouping. this is usually discontinous variation. Polygenic inheritance is when one characteristic is controlled by the alleles of 2 or more genes, for examply height. it is usually shown in continuous variation.

Why is height continuous variation?

You have the gene of tallness, but you don't eat enough so that your body size doesn't change. Continuous variation in human population is always the result of interaction between genotype and the environment

Is tallness a sex linked trait?

Men are in most cases on average taller than women, but whether an individual is tall or not depends on what traits for height they received from their parents. Most of the time, if your parents were both tall you will be tall, and vice versa. However, if you are tall and your parents are both short, and vice versa, you may have inherited a recessive gene for either tallness or shortness that skipped your parents generation.


What is the height of a plant with a genotype of Tt?

Because the Tall gene in plants is dominant, a plant that has the genotype Tt (Heterozygous) would be a Tall plant.


What is the height of a plant with the genotype Tt?

Because the Tall gene in plants is dominant, a plant that has the genotype Tt (Heterozygous) would be a Tall plant.


How could you determine the plant's genotype with respect to height?

Does lack of vitamin d cause shortness in height or it just causes soft bones?

Medical sources mention only "soft bones and skeletal problems," not shortness.


What does physical appearance mean?

it mean that you say something about themHow something looks. In the field of genetics, physical appearance is called phenotype. For example, someone may have genes for shortness yet be tall him/herself. In that case, his/her genotype is hetrozygous for height (Tt) but his/her physical appearance, or phenotype, is tall.


What is the difference between a pure tall plant and a hybrid tall plant?

Pure TraitsPure traits can be either recessive or dominant. Pure traits may have two dominant genes or two recessive genes. For example, a pea plant may have two genes for tallness, which is dominant trait in pea plants. This plant is homozygous plant with a pure dominant trait for tallness. All of the offspring from this plant will be tall. A pea plant with two genes for shortness is also a pure organism. However, shortness in pea plants is a recessive trait. This plant is a homozygous plant with a pure recessive trait for height. The offspring from this plant will be short if it pollinates with another plant that has two genes for shortness. If this plant pollinates with a tall pea plant, the tall dominant gene will mask or cover up the recessive gene for shortness. Both plants are homozygous or pure plants; one is a pure dominant pea plant, the other is a pure recessive pea plant.Hybrid TraitOrganisms that have two unlike genes for a certain trait are called hybrid. A pea plant with one recessive gene for shortness and one dominant gene for tallness is a hybrid for that trait. A hybrid is called heterozygous, as it has two different alleles. The offspring from a pure tall pea plant, cross-pollinated with a pure short pea plant, will result in a heterozygous plant for tallness. No organism has all dominant or all recessive genes. An organism may be pure in certain traits and hybrid others. Remember, that a dominant trait in one kind of organism may be a recessive trait in another organism.
