What is an allele that produces a trait in the heterozygous condition called?

An allele that produces a trait in the heterozygous condition is called dominant. This means that only one copy of the allele is needed to express the trait.


What changes during a mutation?

Mutations can improve the trait, harm the trait, or neither.


A dog breeder can determine that the sudden appearance of hairlessness in one of the puppies is a mutation if the dog?

exhibits a new, unexpected trait not seen in either parent. The hairlessness trait is not present in the genetic makeup of the parents, suggesting it arose from a sudden genetic change. By observing this distinct trait only in one offspring, the breeder can confirm it as a mutation.


How can a dog breeder determine mutation by the hairlesseness?

Hairlessness in dogs is called genomia. It is a duplication mutation that appears in Chinese crested and Mexican Xoloitzcuintule breeds. The hairlessness trait is dominant, which means that it can express if the dog only has one parent with the trait.

When one pair of bases is replaced in a gene it is called?

It is called a point mutation. Depending on where the bases are, as far as in the codon, some are not harmful.


How can a mutation be harmful in one environment and helpful in another?

A mutation that is harmful in one environment may become helpful in another if the change confers an advantage in the new environment, allowing the organism to survive and reproduce better. For example, a mutation that increases resistance to a particular pathogen may be harmful in a normal environment, but advantageous in an environment where that pathogen is prevalent.


Is the mutation for hemoglobin S harmful or beneficial?

Hemoglobin S. This the predominant hemoglobin in people with sickle cell disease. The alpha chain is normal. The disease-producing mutation exists in the beta chain, giving the molecule the structure, a2bS2. People who have one sickle mutant gene and one normal beta gene have sickle cell trait which is benign.


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.
