If about 50 percent of the offspring have the dominant phenotype and 50 percent have the recessive phenotype what are the genotype of the parents?
If 50% of the offspring show the dominant phenotype and 50% show the recessive phenotype, it is likely that one parent is heterozygous (Aa) for the trait and the other parent is homozygous recessive (aa). This would result in a 1:1 ratio of offspring showing each phenotype.
What is phenotype of Rr?
It is Dominant. R is the dominant and r is the recessive. The dominate trait shadows the recessive trait. It is Dominant. R is the dominant and r is the recessive. The dominate trait shadows the recessive trait. Is dominant. dominant can be RR or Rr. but when its recessive its rr.
What is the phenotype of a flower in a pea plant that is homozygous recessive?
You would expect 1 homozygous dominant, 2 heterozygous dominant and 1 homozygous recessive offspring. This is because each parent has one dominant and one recessive allele. Therefore there is a 75% chance of a dominant phenotype and a 25% chance of a recessive phenotype.
Which phenotype belongs to an offspring that is homozygous recessive for both trsaits?
An offspring that is homozygous recessive for both traits will express the recessive phenotype associated with those traits. For example, if the traits in question are flower color (with purple as dominant and white as recessive) and plant height (with tall as dominant and short as recessive), a homozygous recessive offspring would display the white flower color and short height phenotype. Therefore, the phenotype will be determined by the specific traits being assessed, but it will always show the recessive characteristics.
How would a recessive trait show up in a cross between two individuals with a dominant phenotype?
In a cross between two individuals with a dominant phenotype but carrying a recessive trait, the recessive trait would not be visibly expressed in the offspring (since they don't inherit two copies of the recessive allele). However, they would be carriers of the recessive trait, meaning they could pass it on to future generations.
What is the pthenotype for each genotype?
Homozygous dominant genotype (AA): The phenotype will show the dominant trait. Heterozygous genotype (Aa): The phenotype will also show the dominant trait due to the presence of at least one dominant allele. Homozygous recessive genotype (aa): The phenotype will exhibit the recessive trait.
How do dominant and recessive alleles affect an offsprings phenotype?
The traits inherited depends upon the alleles that have been passed on from the father and mother.The traits that are exhibited is called as the phenotype. Dominant allele needs only one copy to be expressed.For example in a pea plant "T" represents the tall dominant allele and "t" the short recessive allele .TT - when there are two dominant alleles the pea plant will express the tall trait. The pea plant is tall.Tt - when there is one dominant and one recessive allele the pea plant will still express the tall trait.In this case the dominant allele masks the recessive allele and the pea plant is still tall.tt - when there are two recessive alleles the pea plant will express the recessive trait and the pea plant is short.For a recessive trait to show up there should be a pair of recessive alleles.
A trait that requires one allele in order to in order to show up in the phenotype?
Recessive traits require two recessive alleles.
What will be the phenotype of a heterzygous gerbil?
A gerbil with a recessive gene would generally not show it, aka it will not show as a phenotype. However, there are slight differences in some gerbils with recessives, such as a lighter coat if the gerbil has a recessive c(h), g, or a.
How many dominant alleles must be present in order to show the dominant phenotype?
Only one dominant allele is needed to display the dominant phenotype. Dominant alleles are expressed when present, masking the effect of recessive alleles.
What is the phenotype of a purebred recessive?
A recessive trait is known as the characteristic that is the outward expression of the gene. Recessive traits can be masked by dominant traits but are still present if the gene is present in the organism.
In a testcross an individual who is is crossed with an individual who is .?
In a testcross, an individual with a dominant phenotype but unknown genotype is crossed with an individual that is homozygous recessive for the same trait. This helps determine the unknown genotype of the dominant individual based on the phenotypic ratios of the offspring. If any offspring display the recessive phenotype, it indicates that the dominant parent is heterozygous. Conversely, if all offspring show the dominant phenotype, the dominant parent is likely homozygous.
