an inherited character determined by a recessive gene
What else can I help you with?
What is the difference dominant and recessive trait?
Dominant traits are the traits that mask the recessive traits. The dominant traits are stronger than recessive!
What do organisms pass to their offspring?
They pass on traits. There are recessive traits and dominant traits. The dominant trait is normally the one that overpowers recessive
Which traits oberved were dominant and recessive?
In genetics, dominant traits are those that are expressed when an individual has one or two copies of the dominant allele, while recessive traits are only expressed when an individual has two copies of the recessive allele and no dominant allele present. Dominant traits often mask recessive traits in heterozygous individuals.
What kinds of traits seem to disappear sometimes?
Recessive Traits
What genes are recessive traits?
These traits are called dominant traits. They will overcome the recessive gene and the dominant trait will be expressed. A recessive gene needs two alleles present in its genotype to be expressed.
How is dominant trait and recessive trait related?
They are related to each other because whether they are dominant or recessive they are both homozygous, meaning the same. They can either be homozygous dominant or homozygous recessive. If they are heterozygous then they are different because it contains one dominant and one recessive allele each. EX: AA=homozygous dominant allele aa=homozygous recessive allele Aa=heterozygous allele
Is an organism that is homozygous for many recessive traits at a disadvantage?
An organism that is homozygous for many recessive traits may be at a disadvantage due to the expression of those recessive traits. These traits may negatively impact the organism's overall fitness, making it less well-adapted to its environment compared to organisms that do not have as many recessive traits expressed.
In which generation were recessive traits visible Mendel's experiments?
Recessive traits were visible in the F2 generation of Mendel's experiments, where the offspring of the F1 generation showed a 3:1 ratio of dominant to recessive traits.
How is Dominant and Recessive differ?
Dominant traits are expressed when just one copy of the gene is present, while recessive traits require two copies to be expressed. Dominant traits mask recessive traits when they are both present.
Can parents have different traits then the offsprings?
yes because the traits can be recessive
Why are some traits not inherited?
Some of these traits are recessive and are not actually seen but are there.
Traits determined by recessive genes located on the x chromosomes are said to be?
Some traits are determined by recessive genes on the X chromosomes. Many times these are genetic disorders and are called recessive genes.
