Would blood group changes in neonate?
no. The ABO system and Rh blood group are already decided the moment sperm meets ovum. It is decided by the gene we have. For ABO classification, to put it simply people with A blood type has two A gene or one A gene plus one O gene. People with B type have two B gene or one B gene plus one O gene. People with AB type has one A gene and one B gene. O type has two O genes. A father passes one of his blood gene to his child and a mother passes one as well that the child now has two, and the combination is what decides the child's blood type. Bombay type is a very rare blood type different from A, B, or O. You can only have it if your family has a very rare gene, or in other words, if one of your family has it.
What do you call a person who has one dominant and one recessive copy of a gene?
We call a gene that has two different alleles heterozygous.
What is two copies of a gene?
If the Tr are the genes, then one will be TT, and one will be rr, two will be Tr.
Is an allele bigger then a gene?
An allele is a gene. It is one form of a gene. For example, height in pea plants is controlled by one gene with two forms. A pea plant can be tall or short. There is a short allele and a tall allele for the gene governing height.
What is the gene that codes for a particular trait is known as what?
An allele is a gene for a specific trait. Cells contain two alleles for every gene, with one allele provided by each parent of an organism.

How do you know that two genes are likely to be on the same or opposite side of the centromere based on the gene to gene and gene to centromere distance?
I think this might be a simple math problem. The two genes are on the same side if the gene to gene distance is the smallest one among all the distances given, and are on the opposite side if the gene to gene distance is the biggest one. hope this helps. :)

A person who does not show a genetic disease such as Tay Sachs or Cystic Fibrosis but can pass the gene on to the next generation is called?
A carrier. This is usually a disease that requires two parts of a gene. The faulty gene is the recessive gene, and the healthy gene is the dominant gene. If two people with one dominant and one recessive gene each have a child they have a 25% chance of producing a child with two dominant genes, thereby resulting in that child having the disease.
What combinations of genes could tall pea plants have?
two tall genes or one tall gene and one short gene
Why is it that two normal parents could have a child with pku?
PKU, phenolketonuria, is a genetic disease caused by a recessive gene. So, a person with one normal and one faulty gene for this characteristic will not have the disease, you have to have two faulty genes to have the disease. If two people who each have one gene for PKU have a child, that child can inherit the gene from each parent and therefore will have two copies, causing the recessive trait to manifest.

Two form of the same gene is called?
An indiviual letter in a punnett square representing a gene is called an allele. The two genes ( one from each parent ) together is a genotype. There isn't really two forms of a gene.
What is the gene that codes for a particular trait is known as what?
An allele is a gene for a specific trait. Cells contain two alleles for every gene, with one allele provided by each parent of an organism.
What are the two methods in which one could isolate a gene?
in a patriarch
What is the number of alleles in a gene?
An allele of a gene resides on a chromosome; as there are typically two chromosomal copies in an individual Cell, there are typically two alleles of each and every gene in the individuals genome, or its genetic complement.
