A trait is an observable, physical characteristic of an organism (a phenotype). A FACTOR is the underlying genetic cause of the TRAIT (the genotype).

What is the broad sense heritability equation and how does it contribute to understanding the genetic basis of a trait?
The broad sense heritability equation is a statistical measure that estimates the proportion of variation in a trait that is due to genetic factors within a population. It helps researchers understand the extent to which genetics influence a trait compared to environmental factors. By quantifying the genetic contribution to a trait, the broad sense heritability equation provides insights into the genetic basis of that trait.
Is sickle cell anemia considered a codominant trait in genetic inheritance?
Yes, sickle cell anemia is considered a codominant trait in genetic inheritance.
Heritability refers to the extent to which?
Heritability refers to the extent to which differences in a trait or characteristic within a population can be attributed to genetic differences. It provides an estimate of the proportion of individual differences in a trait that can be explained by genetic factors.
What is the definition of a genetic trait?
A genetic trait is a characteristic that is influenced by an individual's genes, such as eye color, blood type, or height. These traits are inherited from one's parents and can be passed down through generations.
A characteristic that is passed from parent to offspring?
skin color eye color hair color same way of acting ect.
What is the genetic composition determining a trait?
Genotype is the genetic makeup of a trait.
What does trait?
genetic likeness.
What is used to describe a trait that is controlled by many genes?
A genetic trait.
A genetic factor that covers up another genetic factor is called?
A dominant trait is a genetic factor that blocks another genetic factor. A recessive trait is a genetic factor that is blocked by the presence of a dominant fact
Is being cross eyed a genetic trait?
Yes, being cross-eyed can be a genetic trait. It can be inherited from one or both parents.
Why do you have unattached ears?
It is a dominant genetic trait. If you get a gene for it from either parent, you will have this trait.
Is emotional a genetic trait?
It's not genetic, but you can be emotional like a family member.
Which type of genetic trait appears in every generation of offspring?
A dominant genetic trait appears in every generation of offspring because only one copy of the dominant allele is needed for the trait to be expressed.
What does family trait mean?
genetic likeness.
The genetic basis of a trait is called?
dna
The physical manifestation of a genetic trait is?
phenotype
What are dominant traits?
dominant trait is a genetic trait which may cause a hereditary condition
