What is the difference between a monohybrid and dihybird cross?

monohybrid cross deals with one genotypic trait whereas the dihybrid cross deals with two traits being crossed to see the possible genotypes.


What is a phenotypic ratio?

A ratio that shows the different outcomes you can get from a genetic cross.A ratio that shows the varied outcomes that results from a genetic cross and is based on physical appearance alone. For example yellow flowers, round seeds, brown hair, green eyes etc.The genetic make up of an organism is called genotype and the external appearance or expression of the genetic make up is called phenotype (Color, height, shape etc.). The ratio indicates the number of heterozygotes and homozygotes with reference to the genotypic ratio and to the number of phenotypes expressed as phenotypic ratio. The concept was given by Sir Gregor Johann Mendel, Father of Genetics who worked on pea plant with reference to 7 different characters. The result obtained for a cross between a single character is called monohybrid cross and the ratio is referred to as monohybrid ratio which is 1:2:1 for genotypic ratio and 3:1 for phenotypic ratio.in the dihybrid cross for the phenotypic ratio it is 9:3:3:1.


What is the phenotype ratio of a cross between a heterozygous male and female?

The phenotypic ratio is a 3:1 ratio.


Difference between broad sense heritability and narrow sense heritability?

Broad sense heritability A.K.A (H) is the degree in which phenotypic variation is due to genetic factors Narrow sense heritability A.K.A (h) is the degree in which phenotypic variation is due to additive genetic factors. in maths terms... H = Vg/Vt h = Va/Vt Vg= genetic varaition Vt = total variation Va = additive variation


What is the difference between inherited and learned characteristics?

Inherited - Something that you instinctively know how to do, such as breathing or blinking.Learned - Something that you had to be taught how to do, such as driving a car or multiplying numbers.

What is variation what is a natural selection?

variation is the differences in genotypic traits between individuals in a populationnatural selection is any naturally occurring process resulting in differential success of reproduction of individuals depending on the genotypic traits they have expressed as phenotypic traits, the usual means by which this happens is the death of specific individuals prior to being able to reproduce but other events can alter the rate of success of reproduction without the individuals dying (e.g. they reproduce OK themselves but fail to bring those offspring to reproductive age successfully).
