AA could be either homozygous or heterozygous, depending on whether the individual inherited the same allele (A) from both parents (homozygous) or different alleles (Aa) from each parent (heterozygous).

What is the probability of offspring for 2 heterozygous dogs?

There are 3 probabilities: dominant homozygous, recessive homozygous, or heterozygous.


Is AA a homozygous genotype?

homozygous = AA & AA Heterozygous = Aa


If 240 plant offspring were produced from crossing two heterozygous plants how many would be homozygous?

Out of the 240 offspring, approximately 60 would be homozygous (25% of 240). This is because when two heterozygous plants are crossed (Aa x Aa), the Punnett square shows that 25% of the offspring will be homozygous dominant (AA), 50% will be heterozygous (Aa), and 25% will be homozygous recessive (aa).


What is the probability that offspring of a cross between a homozygous recessive parent and a hetezyguous parent will be homozygous recessive?

In a cross between a homozygous recessive parent (AA) and a heterozygous parent (Aa), the possible genotypes of the offspring are 50% homozygous recessive (AA) and 50% heterozygous (Aa). Therefore, the probability that an offspring will be homozygous recessive is 50%.


What cross shows homozygous dominant mating with heterozygous?

AA (dominant) mating with aa (recessive) -----> Aa


What is an example of two heterozygous parents?

The possible genotypes of parents who are heterozygous would be found using a punnet square. The outcome would be 50 percent heterozygous dominant, 25 percent homozygous dominant, and 25 percent homozygous recessive.

When two alleles of a pair are identical it is a condition if the two alleles are different this is a condition?

When two alleles of a pair are identical, it is referred to as homozygous. When the two alleles are different, it is referred to as heterozygous. Homozygous individuals have two identical alleles (e.g., AA or aa), while heterozygous individuals have two different alleles (e.g., Aa).


Differentiate between homozygous and heterozygous?

Homozygous refers to having two identical alleles of a particular gene, while heterozygous refers to having two different alleles of a particular gene. In homozygous individuals, both alleles are the same (e.g., AA or aa), while in heterozygous individuals, the alleles are different (e.g., Aa).


What is the heterozygous for the A allele?

Heterozygous for the A allele means having one copy of the A allele and one copy of a different allele (e.g., a or B) at a particular gene locus. In genetics, the term heterozygous refers to an individual possessing two different forms (alleles) of a particular gene.


Why is an organism genotype may be homozygous dominant homozygous recessive or heterozygous but never heterozygous recessive?

I take it you're referring to the phenotype. Say a trait, like flower colour, is influenced by a single gene. The plant will possess two copies of the gene, one from each parent, but only one colour is expressed. Let's say that red is dominant and white is recessive. A plant containing 2 red alleles (homozygous for the dominant allele) will be red. A plant containing 2 copies of the white allele (Homozygous recessive) will be white and heterozygous plant, containing a single copy of both alleles will be red. There is no heterozygous recessive because the dominant allele will determine the phenotype.


The offspring of two parents that are heterozygous for a given trait have a percent chance of being homozygous for that trait?

There is a 25% chance (1 in 4) that the offspring will be homozygous for the trait. This is because when both parents are heterozygous (Aa), they can pass on either the dominant allele (A) or the recessive allele (a) to their offspring, resulting in a 1 in 4 chance of the offspring receiving the recessive allele from both parents and becoming homozygous (aa) for that trait.
