Statistical mating between mom and dad.
Bb X Bb
1/4 of the time, statistically, you will get progeny with the alleles bb, the homozygous recessive traits.
The trait produced by the dominant allele may not be beneficial to the organism.
You will have the dominant phenotype for that trait.
Their offspring will have dominant genes. However, if these offspring have offspring with an amimal with recessive genes, the recessive genes will show up.
Mendel's law of dominance states that if you have a pair of genes then the one that shows up in the offspring is most likely the dominant gene because the dominant is passed along more often than the recessive.
It would depend on if the dominant genes are the same or different. Say the dominant alleles were different. In this case, they are co-dominant. If they are the same and both dominant homosytus.
Mendel called the trait that was always expressed the dominant trait.
Yes.
There are no such things as dominant and recessive genes. There are only dominant and recessive alleles. Dominant alleles are parts of a gene that present its features over the recessive allele, which is the one that is always masked by the dominant allele. The recessive allele's trait only shows if both of the alleles in a trait are recessive.
A dominant trait is expressed when two different genes for the same trait are present.
Non-Mendelian traits are:A trait with no clearly dominant alleleA trait with four allelesA trait controlled by many genes
dominant
You will have the dominant phenotype for that trait.
This means that the father has two copies of the dominant allele for a particular trait. As a result, all of his offspring will inherit at least one copy of the dominant allele from him. This implies that all his offspring will either express the dominant trait or be carriers of the dominant allele.
a trait controlled by many genes
Their offspring will have dominant genes. However, if these offspring have offspring with an amimal with recessive genes, the recessive genes will show up.
dominant
Pure dominant = two dominant genes that make a "pure dominant" trait. Pure Recessive = two recessive genes that make a "pure recessive" trait.
It is called a dominant trait
