How is a trait determined?
Genetic traits are determined based on the genes an individual inherits from his parents. All an individual's genes determines his genotype, while factors such as dominance and recessiveness determine phenotype.
A complex character with many traits is a?
A round character has many traits, some of which may even be contradictory--a very complex individual
Can you predict the exact day when a current volcano will erupt?
No. Although scientists can monitor signs that a volcano is getting ready to erupt they are nowhere near predicting the day a volcano will erupt. They might not even be able to predict the month or even the year that it will erupt.
What is it called when an organism has genes that are different for a trait?
Well every gene in the human genome codes for something different. The fact that variety exists is determined by the alleles of that gene. The human genome has over 35,000 genes that all work together to form a persons genotype. Observable features are an organisms phenotype and those are composed of different traits, i.e. eye color, hair color, certain behaviors. All of these are also coded for by specific genes.
Does your genetic code predict personality?
Yes I would definetly say genes play a very significant role in perosnality. My guess is they play an even more signigicant role than environment. if you look at how certain sibblings in certain families show very similar traits while others have a completely different personality.
Why it is difficult to exactly predict someone's traits even if you know their genotype?
genes are mixed around during sexual reproduction, and it ensures that the genes will not be the same.
Why are the traits Mendel studied in pea plants easy to predict?
Each trait is controlled entirely by a single gene on the chromosome. Thus their phenotype is determined only by the combination of the two genes for that trait inherited on the pair of chromosomes received one from each parent, the genotype. Many other traits are controlled in much more complex ways involving multiple interacting genes, possibly even on different chromosomes. This can make them very difficult to predict or even nearly impossible to predict in some cases. To a large degree Mendel was very lucky to have picked those specific traits to study!
Using the word genotype in a sentence?
The plant's genotype gave it a tall phenotype even though its alleles were heterozygous. Add an I and can and chagne the "?" to a ".".
Can the genotype for a gray bodied fly be determined?
Well, in order for us to get a accurate genotype, we would need to know the parents. What are their traits?
What will replace transistors when they get too small?
There is no way to predict this or even predict if there can be such a thing.
How can you tell if someones a vampire by only looking at them?
It can be difficult if the vampire is well fed and maintained and is wearing lots of clothing. Many of the traits that portray a vampire are also common human traits, such as pallor, burning desire, etc. and you cannot designate any individual on any one or even a few of these. It requires a collection of all such indication to even begin to warrant a suspicion.

Why do isotherms predict?
No you didn't even give me what I was looking for
How are Genotype phenotype alike?
Genotype is the specific combination of genes that contribute to a trait that an organism has. (For example, the genes for being tall).Phenotype is the expression of the trait which is partially influenced due to the genotype and partly by the environment (Even if you have the genes for being tall, if you are malnourished you will not grow as tall).
How is a trait determined?
Genetic traits are determined based on the genes an individual inherits from his parents. All an individual's genes determines his genotype, while factors such as dominance and recessiveness determine phenotype.
What will happen if the sun and earth line up with the center of galaxy?
Then some newspapers will publish that as an interesting, or even spectacular, fact, and some weirdos will predict the end of the world.Then some newspapers will publish that as an interesting, or even spectacular, fact, and some weirdos will predict the end of the world.Then some newspapers will publish that as an interesting, or even spectacular, fact, and some weirdos will predict the end of the world.Then some newspapers will publish that as an interesting, or even spectacular, fact, and some weirdos will predict the end of the world.
Does a genotype determine phenotypes?
The genotype against the immediate environment and developmental processes. Each organism has a unique environment too. Think about it. Even identical twins are not totally their genotype because they are subject to not only the same environment, usually, but the unique experiences and formative processes of their unique environment.
