Is a dominant trait seen in the first generation or the second generation?
Dominant traits tend to manifest whenever they are inherited. The real question is, "When do you see recessive traits?" Traits are coded in genes. We all inherit genes from both of our parents. If the dominant trait is capital Y and the recessive trait is lowercase y we can calculate the odds fairly easily. There are only four combinations that can be inherited from one pair of parents: YY, Yy, yY, and yy (this is usually visualized using a "punnet square"). Only in the case of both inherited traits being lowercase y will we see the recessive trait. Otherwise, we will usually see the dominant trait.
Which type of genetic trait appears in every generation of offspring?
the dominant trait
How does a genetic trait appear every generation and what is it considered?
A trait like this must be homozygous dominate.
When would you expect mutations to be passed to offspring and when would you not?
Wow, many different aspects to look at here. One big one is if it is in every generation or not. If so, then you have a dominant mutation that will show in every individual with an allele for that gene. If it seems to skip generations then you have a recessive mutation. Basically to answer this question you need to look at your family tree and determine what is going on and if every generation has it, they will have it. If your generation has it, they won't.
What is the difference between a herezygous and a homozygous?
"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).

How phenotype can be used to predict phenotype in a pedigree?
Phenotype is physical appearance of a character in a living being which depends on their genotype i.e. genetic constituents so by study of phenotype, genotype can be predicted which may or may not be exactly same but definately not wrong because every character can be homozygously dominant or hetrozygously dominant.

Every allele is a dominant?
no it can be dominant or ressive
Is a miniature poodle a mixed breed?
No, the miniature poodle is a pedigree breed that was bred from the standard. From each litter of standards, people took the smallest members and bred those together, and repeated this every generation. Because the larger members of the generation were not bred, it meant the genes for larger poodles were slowly bred out of the gene pool, making the average offspring's size smaller each generation.
Why does Pennywise appear every 27 years?
IT just does. There's no definitive reason as to why every 27 years. One could assume every 27 years there is another generation of pre-teen & teenage children to feast upon.
