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.
Is albinism a dominat or reccesive trait?
Albinism is a recessive trait which will result in a lack of pigmentation in the skin eyes and hair. It occurs about 1 in every 17,000 people in the U.S.
Can sickle cell trait skip generations?
yes it can skip a generation, since it is a Mendel inheritance. and it is a reccesive trait. therefore offspring's can have two unaffected parents but chances are both parents might be carriers
If the sickle cell trait were a dominant trait rather than a recessive one could it still be balanced polymorphism?
the polymorphism is only balanced when the dominate trait is recessive in the cell which came from the daughter cell after division, hence the dominate characteristics.

What is a heterozygous indivisual who doesnt show a reccesive genetic disorder but who can pass a reccesive allele on to their offspring is called what?
Almost 100% sure that they're called carriers.
What are recess?
There are two types of traits, recessive and dominant. One is more likely to appear in a following generation than the other. Say, one person with black hair is partners to someone with red hair. Black hair is a more dominant trait than red. Their kids will more likely have black, in following generations though you can still have someone with red hair pop up down the line because the gene is always there and because of its recessive nature it can go generations without coming up again. a reccesive trait is like; if your mom had blue eyes and your dad had brown eyes, you would probably have brown eyes because blue eyes is a reccesive trait
