The phenotype (as I assume would be colour) for both homozygous and heterozygous yellow-grained corn is yellow.

What is the difference between homozygous and heterozygous organism?
it's to do with genes, a homozygous organism has two alleles that are the same, whereas a heterozygous organism will have two different alleles. eg, on a chromosome for eye colour, a homozygous example would have both alleles for say, blue eyes. a heterozygous example would have an allele for blue and an allele for brown, where brown would be dominant, reccesive, or cooperative.

If a pea plant that is heterozygous for round yellow peas (RrYy) is crossed with a pea plant that is homozygous for round peas but heterozygous for yellow peas (RRYy) how many different phenotypes are?

In pea plants the peas produced may be green or yellow with yellow being the dominant form of the allele. What would be the phenotype of a pea plant that is heterozygous for the alleles?
yellow peas
In pea plants the peas produced may be green or yellow with yellow being the dominant form of the allele . What would be the phenotype of the pea plant that is heterozygous for the alleles?
yellow peas
If you see a healthy living yellow mouse can you tell if it is heterozygous or homozygous?
yes because of there specific traits that they have from the outside like their fur color, eye color and etc....
If the allele for yellow peas is Y the allele for the contrasting trait green peas is?
y
If you see healthy living yellow mouse can you tell if it is heterozygous or homozygous?
yes because of there specific traits that they have from the outside like their fur color, eye color and etc....
If the allele for yellow peas is dominant to the allele for green peas what experiment do you do to find out if the yellow peas are homozygous dominant or heterozygous?
You will need to place the genetic combination possibilities into at least two Punnett Squares where Y=dominant yellow and g=recessive green symbols are assigned . Observe the outcome of the crosses which should reflect a specific probablity of results shown as follows: YY X gg yields 100% Yg heterozygous combinations with yellow appearance and could be dominant but further experimentation is needed to confirm. Yg X gg yields 50% heterozygous offspring (yellow appearance) with 50% homozygous (green appearance). If other results are observed after these two genetic combinations then yellow is not dominant to green. Lastly comparing the results between the two crosses will help you narrow the distinction between homozygous and heterozygous characteristics. Research: Punnett Squares further if you are not familiar with its dynamics. Good luck!
When two pea plants that are heterozygous for yellow peas are crossed.the resulting offspring have a genotypic ratio of?
Because heterozygous means that the parents contain both dominant and recessive genes the offspring will be 75% tall and 25% short. If you were to draw the punnett squares you would see that there are 3 possible children one with only dominant tall traits two with both dominant and recessive traits and one with only recessive traits.
What heterozygous or homozygous?
Breaking it down:Hetero means different.Homo means same.Zygous refers to how similar two alleles are for a trait in an organism.Use:Heterozygous and homozygous are terms used to describe a cell determined on the status of its alleles for a trait.You would describe a cell as Homozygous when both alleles for a given trait are the same. (Genotype example: YY,yy)You would describe a cell as Heterozygous when both alleles for a given trait are different. (Genotype example: Yy)In use:A green sweet pea: Homozygous or Heterozygous?Taking my knowledge of sweet peas, the color green is recessive in sweet peas while the color yellow is dominant.Using your knowledge on recessive genotypes....(Hint: A pea with a genotype of Yy would be yellow... Bigger hint: To have a recessive trait you would need two alleles from a recessive trait that are the identical; genotype yy)Yep, you got it.A green sweet pea would be Homozygous.Why?Because the color green is a recessive trait in sweet peas. To have a recessive trait shown, the cell would have to have two identical alleles of that recessive trait.And what qualifies a cell as homozygous? When both alleles for a given trait are the same.BINGO!There you go.I hope this helps.~Monique G.9th gradeCA, USA
