What is arecessive trait?
A recessive trait is a genetic trait that is only expressed when an individual carries two copies of the gene responsible for that trait. It is masked by the presence of a dominant trait when an individual carries one copy of each type of gene.
Organism that carries two different alleles for one trait?
Hetrozygous
What is an organism that carries two different alleles for one trait?
In one sense it is called a Diploid Organism.
What type of neuron carries a message from one neuron to another?
It is called an Interneuron
Is heterozygeous dominant or reccesive?
Heterozygous means that it carries both dominant and recessive traits (as opposed to homozygous which carries only one) - the dominant trait is the one which is expressed (phenotype). A heterozygous trait can be expressed as Rr - "R" the dominant trait and "r" the recessive trait.
A trait that appears or is expressed in the f1 generation is what?
A trait that appears or is expressed in the F1 generation is considered dominant. Dominant traits will manifest themselves in the offspring when at least one parent carries the dominant allele for that trait.
What trait that may not show when an animal carries it but which can be passed on to its offspring and perhaps show there is called what kind of trait?
A trait that may not be visibly expressed in an animal but can be passed on to its offspring is called a "recessive trait." This trait is only observable when an organism has two copies of the gene responsible for it, one from each parent.
Does a dominant trait appear in the first generation?
Yes, a dominant trait will appear in the first generation if one of the parents carries the dominant allele. Dominant traits only need one copy of the allele to be expressed.
What does it mean that an organism is homozygous recessive for a trait?
An organism that is homozygous recessive for a trait carries two copies of the recessive allele for that trait. This means that the individual will express the recessive trait because there is no dominant allele to mask its expression.
A square box half colored in a pedigree is?
A square box half colored in a pedigree typically represents a carrier of a genetic trait. This means the individual carries one copy of the gene mutation for the trait but does not exhibit the trait themselves.
A genetic trait expressed in a person who has only one copy of the gene associated with the trait?
This is known as a dominant trait. Dominant traits require only one copy of the gene to be expressed in an individual. The presence of one dominant allele is sufficient to display the trait, even if the individual also carries a different allele for the same gene.
