What cross should a scientist perform in order to determine if the organism is heterozygous or homozygous dominant?
The scientist should perform a test cross between the organism and a homozygous recessive organism. If all offspring show the dominant trait, the original organism is homozygous dominant. If some offspring show the recessive trait, the original organism is heterozygous.
What is the expected genotypic ratios for di-hybrid cross and mono-hybrid cross?
In a dihybrid cross, the expected genotypic ratio is 1:2:1 for homozygous dominant: heterozygous: homozygous recessive genotypes, respectively. In a monohybrid cross, the expected genotypic ratio is 1:2:1 for homozygous dominant: heterozygous: homozygous recessive genotypes, respectively.
What describes the mating of organisms that have different homozygous alleles for a single trait?
The mating of organisms with different homozygous alleles for a single trait is referred to as a monohybrid cross. In this scenario, one parent possesses two dominant alleles (homozygous dominant), while the other has two recessive alleles (homozygous recessive). The offspring produced from this cross will be heterozygous, displaying the dominant trait, while the recessive trait will not be expressed in the phenotype. This type of cross is often used to illustrate basic principles of Mendelian inheritance.
To determine if a particular plant is homozygous or heterozygous you would have to test cross with a?
To determine if a particular plant is homozygous or heterozygous, you would need to perform a test cross with a homozygous recessive individual. If the offspring display the recessive trait, the original plant would likely be heterozygous. If all offspring exhibit the dominant trait, the original plant would likely be homozygous dominant.
To determine if a particular plant is homozygous or heterozygous you would have to test cross with a what?
To determine if a plant is homozygous or heterozygous, you would need to test cross it with a homozygous recessive plant. If the offspring show the recessive trait, the original plant is heterozygous; if all offspring show the dominant trait, the original plant is homozygous.
What is a plant with two dominant or two recessive alleles said to be?
Heterozygous alleles are used to describe the 'parents' when creating a test cross chart. When completing a test cross there is more than comparing alleles, you are really comparing genetics. Heterozygous YY or yy versus Homozygous Yy, is just the first to consider.
To determine the genotype of an individual that shows the dominant phenotype you would cross that individual with one that is?
To determine the genotype of an individual that shows the dominant phenotype you would cross that individual with one that is homozygous recessive. A monohybrid cross of two individuals that are heterozygous for a trait exhibiting complete dominance would probably result in a phenotype ratio is 3 dominant 1 recessive.
When can you use a test cross?
A test cross is used to determine the genotype of an organism exhibiting a dominant phenotype. By crossing this organism with a homozygous recessive individual, the offspring's phenotypes reveal whether the dominant organism is homozygous or heterozygous. If any recessive phenotypes appear in the offspring, the dominant parent is heterozygous; if all offspring display the dominant phenotype, the parent is likely homozygous. This method is commonly employed in genetics to assess inheritance patterns.
What is the name of the cross that involves the mating of an unknown dominant phenotype plant with a homozygous recessive plant for the same trait?
Test Cross
What is the offspring if you cross two heterozygous Tt tall plants?
You get one homozygous dominant (TT), one homozygous recessive (tt), and two heterozygous (Tt).
What happens to the alleles between the P generation and the F2 generation?
In the P generation, one parent is homozygous dominant and the other parent is homozygous recessive. In the F1 generation, the product of a cross between the P generation, the offspring are all heterozygous. In the F2 generation, the product of a cross between the F1 generation, the expected result is 1/4 homozygous dominant, 1/2 heterozygous, and 1/4 homozygous recessive.
If a homozygous dominant is crossed with a homozygous recessive for a given trait the offspring will be?
The phenotype will show the dominant trait. All dominant traits mask recessive ones; If the genotype is heterozygous (One dominant and one recessive) the organism's phenotype will be dominant.
