What is the genotype of a child if the mother is homozygous for the dominant trait and the father is homozygous for the recessive trait?
The dominant parent is most likely homozygous dominant, and the recessive parent has only the homozygous genotype. So the dominant parent can pass on only dominant alleles for this trait, and the recessive parent can pass on only recessive alleles for this trait. So all of the offspring would be heterozygous and have the dominant phenotype.
If yellow peas are dominant over green peas the offspring of a pure dominant and a pure recessive cross is?
Let Y represent the dominant allele, and yrepresent the recessive allele. Let us also assume that "pure" means homozygous for that trait ("pure' is not the usual term for this, "homozygous" is) So, the two genotypes of the parents of the cross are: Parent 1: YY Parent 2: yy To solve a problem like this, one always has to determine what kind(s) of gametes each parent can produce. Both parents are homozygous for their respective traits, so in this case, each parent can only produce one kind of gamete: Parent 1 can only produce Ygametes, and Parent 2 can only produce y gametes. Therefore, every one of their offspring will have the following genotype: Yy Since every one of the offspring of the cross carries a Y allele, and Y is dominant, all of the offspring will be yellow.
The F1 offspring of Mendel's classic pea cross always looked like opne of the two parental varieties because?
Because Mendel crossed two pure-breeding plants. One being homozygous dominant and one being homozygous recessive. All of the progeny ended up being heterozygous, causing them to take on the dominant phenotype and look like the homozygous dominant parent.
If the male parent has the genotype AAA and the female parent has the genotype AAA offsprings genotype will be?
The offspring's genotype will be AA. Both parents are homozygous dominant, AA, having only dominant alleles to pass on to their offspring. So each parent can pass on only the dominant allele (A) to its offspring. So the offspring will also be homozygous dominant, AA.
What happens to alleles between the p generation and F2 generation?
In the P generation, one parent is homozygous dominant and the other parent is homozygous recessive. In the F1 generation, the product of a cross between the P generation, the offspring are all heterozygous. In the F2 generation, the product of a cross between the F1 generation, the expected result is 1/4 homozygous dominant, 1/2 heterozygous, and 1/4 homozygous recessive.
What is the genotype of a child if the mother is homozygous for the dominant trait and the father is homozygous for the recessive trait?
The dominant parent is most likely homozygous dominant, and the recessive parent has only the homozygous genotype. So the dominant parent can pass on only dominant alleles for this trait, and the recessive parent can pass on only recessive alleles for this trait. So all of the offspring would be heterozygous and have the dominant phenotype.
In tomatoes red fruit color is dominant to yellow and suppose a tomato plant homozygous for red is crossed with one homozygous for yellowso determine the appearance of first filial?
Let the dominant allele, red color, be represented by R,and the recessive alelle, yellow, by r. Both parent plants are homozygous, so their genotypes will be: Red: RR Yellow: rr The cross is therefore: RR X rr Remember that a homozygous genotype can produce only one type of gamete, so the red plant can only produce gametes with R, and the yellow plant can only produce r gametes. Since the F1 generation takes one gamete frrom each parent, and each parent can only produce one type of gamete, then the F1 generation can have only one genotype: F1: Rr That is, all of the offspring from this cross will be heterozygous. Red is dominant over yellow, and all of the offspring carry one R allele, therefore all of the F1 generation will be red in color.
A parent that is homozygous for a dominant trait is crossed with a parent that is homozygous for the recessive trait What percentage of the offspring will display the dominant trait?
100 percent

How would a baby change if one parent was homozygous dominant for all the traits and the other parent was heterozygous?
If one parent is homozygous dominant for all traits (carrying two dominant alleles for each trait), and the other parent is heterozygous (carrying one dominant and one recessive allele for each trait), there would be a 100% chance that the baby would inherit the dominant alleles from the homozygous dominant parent. Therefore, the baby would also be heterozygous for all the traits, carrying one dominant and one recessive allele for each trait.
What percentage of genotypes would most likely be found in the f1 generation offspring?
If the parent generation consisted of a homozygous dominant parent and a homozygous recessive parent, then the F1 generation would be 100% heterozygous.
Which gender can have white eyes if the female parent is homozygous dominant for red eyes and if the male parent has white eyes?
Male
Which gender can have white eyes if the female parent is homozygous dominant for red eyes and the male parent has white eyes?
Male
What are the possible offspring outcome if parent one Tt crosses with parent to tt?
A heterozygous cross.Tt X TtOne homozygous dominant--TTTwo heterozygous dominant---TtOne homozygous recessive--ttAll on a statistical average outcome.
If a homozygous dominant parent and a heterozygous parent are crossed what percentage of the offspring are expected to be homozygous dominant?
Rr
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).
Predict what genotype the children will have if one parent is homozygous recessive for earlobes and homozygous dominant for hairline (eeWW) and the other parent is homozygous dominant for unattached earlobes and homozygous recessive for hairline (EEww )?
The only possible outcome is EeWw, which will express the dominant genes but carry the recessive ones. They get one chromosome from each parent, but since the parents all have matching chromsomes in this case then it doesn't matter which one they get. Since one parent has EE, E is the only one that can be passed on. Since the other has ee, they can only pass on e. Therefore, the child can only possible have Ee, as they get one from each parent.
