What tool is used for tracing a trait through generations of a family called?
Genetic marking of genomes I believe that the correct answer is purebred, although I'm not quite sure. I can't find it in my science book either. GTG! My dad's getting out of the shower.
What makes something a sex-linked trait instead of just a regular trait?
A sex linked trait can only be found on the x chromosome such as hemophilia, color blindness, and muscular dystrophy. These are traits that can only be inherited through chromosomes instead of regular traits coming through genes.
Would a disease caused by exposure to chemicals be considered a genetic trait?
A genetic trait is passed on through the genes. Which means that disease from exposure to chemicals is not inherited.
A female frog has a genetic trait that prevents it from producing eggs?
If a female frog has a genetic trait that prevents it from producing eggs the likelihood that it will spread through the frog population is impossible or very unlikely. The female frog cannot reproduce thus when she dies, so would the genetic trait.
What is the genetic composition determining a trait?
Genotype is the genetic makeup of a trait.
What can help a geneticist trace a trait through generations of a family?
Analyzing family pedigrees, collecting detailed family medical histories, conducting genetic testing, and studying inheritance patterns can help geneticists trace a trait through generations of a family.
What is a visual tool for a trait through generations of a family?
The answer is: pedigree
What is a tool for tracing a trait through generations of family?
pedigree is the answer!!
A tool for tracing a trait through generations of a family'?
A pedigree chart is a tool commonly used to trace a trait through generations of a family. It shows the relationships among family members and can help identify patterns of inheritance for specific traits or conditions. By analyzing a pedigree chart, genetic counselors and researchers can better understand how traits are passed down within a family.
Is a visual tool for following a trait through generations of a family?
The answer is: pedigree
What follows a trait through generations of a family?
A trait that is passed down through generations of a family is called a hereditary trait. These traits are determined by genes inherited from parents and can manifest as physical characteristics or behaviors in offspring. The study of heredity is known as genetics.
What is a tool called for tracing a trait through generations of a family?
A Punnett square.
What tools is used for tracing a trait through generations of a family?
A Punnett square.
How do pedigrees work in tracing the lineage of a specific trait or characteristic within a family?
Pedigrees are charts that show how a specific trait or characteristic is passed down through generations in a family. By analyzing these charts, scientists can track the inheritance patterns of the trait and determine how it is transmitted from one generation to the next. This helps in understanding the genetic basis of the trait and predicting the likelihood of it appearing in future generations.
Which term describes a chart that allows a geneticist to see how people in a family are related to one another and to follow a given genetic trait through several generations in a family?
Family tree
Trait that shows up generation after generation?
A trait that is consistently passed from parent to offspring through multiple generations is known as a hereditary trait. This trait is typically determined by genes and can be observed in multiple family members over time.
A pedigree chart can show a trait that is?
Inherited through family relations. Like a family tree, but using squares for males and circles for females. Shaded shapes contain the trait that the chart is displaying. Half shaded shapes symbolize carriers for the trait being represented by the chart.
