What does being heterodox for some genetic trait mean?
It means that there is a high possibility of offspring inheriting the specific trait. For example, a 'normal patterned' snake that is 'hetero for albino' - would likely produce a mixed clutch of babies. The clutch could have all 'normal', all albino or a varying mixture of colour patterns.
Are there albino pitbulls?
Any animal can show albino coloring.
What is the opposite of albino?
The opposite of albino is melanic.The definition of albino is being totally absent of any color pigment; so the opposite would be an abundance of color pigmentation.the opposite of being albino is not albinomwahahahaha!
How do you spell albino?
That is the correct spelling of "albino" (animal that is white, lacking skin pigment).
What is a sentence for the word pigment?
a albino has no pigment
A man and a woman who are both heterozygous for normal skin pigmentation Aa produce an albino offspring AA Which of Mendels principles explains why the offspring is albino?
Dominance and Segregation
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) / / / / ////////////////////////////////////////
The photo below shows an albino offspring from a non-albino mother. If albinism is a recessive trait, what are the possible genotypes of the mother, the father, and the offspring?
It could be that the dad is albino but the mom isn’t.
How many offspring does an albino alligator produce?
50 are produced
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.

Are there albino mudpuppys?
It's certainly possible ! Any species on Earth (including humans and mudpuppies) is capable of producing albino offspring. Albinism is simply a genetic 'mutation'.
If you mate a dilute blue parrotlet with and albino parrotlet what colors will their offspring be?
aibino or American white
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.
What happens when a albino is born in the wild?
it will most likely die in the wild mostly because the offspring would then mate and then possibly reproduce more of its kind then the habitat would flood with albino. Then albino would think they were the grater species and killing the non albino. However if a albino is born and taken to a zoo of some sort it would have a grater chance of having solving. seeing the fact that it is away from almost any kind of danger.
How could you explain a white fish among the newly hatched young?
It could be an Albino, these are rare and you would be lucky to have one.
What colors will the offspring of a black cat carrying a white allele and a purebred white cat be?
There is no such thing as a "purebred" white cat. White and black are just colours, not breeds. For a start, there are two genes that can make a cat white: The usual being dominant and therefore cannot be carried by a black cat, and the recessive albino. My guess is we are only talking about the recessive allele, so we have a black cat carrying albino (Cc) and a pure albino (cc). In this case half the kittens would be white (cc) and half would be black (Cc). Forgetting the albino gene, the black cat would not be carrying white at all (ww), the pure white cat would be dominant (WW), and all the offspring would be white (Ww). In life I would say the purewhite cat is most likely dominant and if the black cat carries the albino allele or not it makes no difference; all offspring would be white.
