If an albino and a non-albino gecko mate will they offspring be albino?
you have a 99% chance of the gecko coming out naturally colored. The albino gene for all animals is recessive. That means that both the mother and father would have to have the recessive gene and it would be blind luck for the recessive gene to be passed on by both parents. Best way to have an albino gecko is to breed 2 albino geckos. It is still not 100% that the babies will be albinos.
A black guinea pig crossed with an albino guinea pig produces 12 black offspring When the albino was crossed with a second black one 7 blacks and 5 albinos resulted What is the best explanation?
No idea i am guessing it is kinda like people. if a black and a white cross it is a 50/50 chance the child will be black or white so its unpredictable it was a 50/50 chance the baby pigs would be blacks or albinos. hope this helps YOU ARE SO RACIST!!!!!
What is an exsample of a recessive gene?
albino when you have no pigment in your body
How are albino animals made?
Albino animals are born due to a rare recessive genetic mutation that prevents any pigments in the skin from developing, making the animal appear pink or white with red eyes. Two normal looking animals can produce albino offspring if they both carry one normal gene which allows pigment development and one albino gene. If they breed together and both pass on the albino gene to the offspring, it will appear albino.
Suppose a women with normal colored skin and having an albino mother married an albino man What would be the genotype of the woman?
The albino woman has to be AA. So the man has to be either AA or Aa in order to be normal. So if they have a baby and its albino it has to contain the AA gene. a a A Aa | Aa ---------------- A Aa | Aa doesn't work.. All outcomes are normal. a a A Aa | Aa ----------------- a AA | AA these combination outcomes 50% chance of an albino baby. This means the man is Aa Heterozygous dominant.. the mother is AA homozygous recessive.. and the baby is the same as the mother. AA...

Are komodo dragons ever albino?
Yes. Pretty much all animals can be albino, it comes from a mutation in the gene that controls the amount of melatonin in the skin.
If parents with normal pigmentation have an albino child what is the chance that their next child will have normal pigmentation?
The chance that their next child will have normal pigmentation is 75%. Albinism is usually caused by a recessive gene, so both parents would need to carry the gene in order to have an albino child. If both parents have normal pigmentation, then the chance of passing on the albino gene to their next child is 25%.
A male and female bison that are both heterozygous for normal skin pigmentation produce an albino offspring Which of Mendels principles explain why the offspring is albino?
Both parents would each have one dominant gene for normal pigmintation and each would have one recessive albino gene. Say P is the dominant gene and q is the albino gene. Then the parents genotype would both be Pq. Below is a Punnet Square. The child's genotype is qq P q ------------------------------------- P / PP / Pq (carrier) / / / / ///////////////////////////////////////// q / Pq (carrier) / qq (albino) / / / / ////////////////////////////////////////
Are albino king snakes poisonous?
No none of the king or milk snake gene are poisonous
1 albino baby gerbil born to a brown mother there are brown and white fur males who might be the father?
There is no such thing as an albino gerbil. There are red-eyed white gerbils, but they are not albino as they have one gene that causes red eyes and another that causes white fur, instead of a single gene causing albinism. Now, depending on the recessives of the brown father, it could be either. The mother is obviously carrying a c(h) gene.
What conditions would be necessary for the albino allele to be more frequent?
For the albino allele to be more frequent in a population, there needs to be a higher rate of genetic drift or a selective advantage associated with the albino phenotype. Additionally, reduced fitness of individuals with the normal pigmentation allele could also contribute to the increased frequency of the albino allele.
