dominant-appears in first generation recessive-seems to dissapear
The answer is that The difference is that dominant dominates, and recessive is dominated.
Homozygous recessive: is when the genes are both recessive Homozygous dominant: is when the genes are both dominant (traits show) Heterozygous dominant: is when one gene is dominant and one is recessive (traits show) Heterozygous recessive: is the same as heterozygous dominant but the dominant genes are inactive
They are the same
The two most straight forward ways are: - If both parents have the trait, and one of their children does not, it must be recessive. - If neither parent has the trait, and one of their children does, it must be dominant.
dominant-appears in first generation recessive-seems to dissapear
Punnet squares show the possible outcome of an offspring's genes, while a pedigree is someone or something that has the same type of gene for one characteristic, like two recessive traits, or two dominant traits.
An individual must have 2 recessive alleles in order for a trait to show up. One must only have 1 dominant allele in order for a trait to occur.
In one allele (recessive) the transcriptional or post translational processes does not occur due to some modification and doesn't express while in other allele it occur (dominant).
the dominant trait is the stronger one and the recessive trait is the weaker one
Dominant is stronger than recessive. So you can only have the phenotype ( visual characteristic ) of a recessive allele if you have 2 recessive alleles in your DNA , and other combination the dominant allele would be predominant
"Heterozygous" and "homozygous" are terms that refer to alleles, which, in genetics determine what trait, from which parent, will appear in the offspring. Alleles can be either Dominant or Recessive. Every organism has two alleles, which can both be dominant, both recessive, or one of each.So,If an organism heterozygous, it has one recessive and one dominant allele.If an organism is homozygous then both of its alleles are the same; you need to specify if they are homozygous recessive (both alleles are recessive) or homozygous dominant (both alleles are dominant).
