What else can I help you with?
An allele is one of the alternative forms of a gene that governs a trait If a fern plant is heterozygous for a particular trait how can the alleles that control that trait be described?
If a fern plant is heterozygous for a particular trait, it means it carries two different alleles for that trait. The alleles can be described as one dominant allele and one recessive allele. The dominant allele will typically determine the physical expression of the trait, while the recessive allele will not be visibly expressed in the plant.
If a pea plant is heterozygous for a particular character how can the alleles that control the character be described?
The alleles controlling the character in a heterozygous pea plant can be described as one dominant allele and one recessive allele. The dominant allele determines the plant's phenotype, while the recessive allele is masked in the presence of the dominant allele.
What are contrasting forms of genes called?
Alleles
What type of alleles mask recessive alleles?
Dominant alleles :-)
What term describes a pair of alleles that are the same?
Alleles that are the same = homozygous Alleles that are different = heterozygous
What can be described as a alternate forms of a particular form?
Alleles
Cells containg two alleles for each trait are described as?
diploid.
How can the alleles that control that trait be described?
One dominate, one recessive
Genetic drift can best be described as?
D) the change in frequencies of alleles due to random events
The inheritence of a trait in humans is best described as being determined by?
One or more pairs of alleles
When a trait has more than two different forms it would be best described by what terms. A. Recessive B. Dominant C. Incomplete dominance D. Phenotypic E. Multiple alleles?
E. Multiple alleles. Multiple alleles refers to a gene that has more than two alleles which can result in a larger number of possible trait variations. This is different from traits that are controlled by dominant and recessive alleles, or exhibit incomplete dominance.
What describe Organism that has two identical alleles for a particular trait?
An organism with two identical alleles for a particular trait is described as homozygous. This means that both alleles, inherited from each parent, are the same, whether they are dominant or recessive. For example, if an organism has two dominant alleles (AA) or two recessive alleles (aa) for a specific gene, it is considered homozygous for that trait. Homozygosity can influence the expression of traits and is important in genetics and breeding.

What are the Members of a gene pairs are identical?
When the members of a gene pair are identical, the organism is described as homozygous for that trait. This means both alleles, one inherited from each parent, are the same, whether they are dominant or recessive. Homozygosity can influence the expression of traits, as both alleles will produce the same phenotype. In contrast, if the alleles are different, the organism is heterozygous.
Two different forms of the same gene are called?
Alleles
What If parents supplied different alleles for a certain trait to their offspring terms would be used to describe the offspring?
If parents supply different alleles for a certain trait to their offspring, the offspring are described as heterozygous for that trait. This means they possess two different alleles, one inherited from each parent. In contrast, if the offspring received the same allele from both parents, they would be termed homozygous for that trait. The expression of the trait may depend on whether the alleles are dominant or recessive.
If a pea plant is heterozygous for a particular character how can the alleles that control the character be described?
The alleles controlling the character in a heterozygous pea plant can be described as one dominant allele and one recessive allele. The dominant allele determines the plant's phenotype, while the recessive allele is masked in the presence of the dominant allele.
