When studying a pedigree how do scientists determine if a trait is dominate or recessive?
dominant only appears in the F1 generation as 4 recessive stays hidden or masked in the F1 generation
In a hybrid individual the trait that is covered and not expressed is the what trait?
recessive
When does a recessive trait dominant over a dominant trait?
When two recessive genes are inherited, and the portion of recessive inheritance is 51% or greater in favor of the recessive trait.
One trait masking another form of a trait?
The trait that is masked is recessive. The trait that does the masking is dominant.
All individuals that show a recessive trait are?
recessive trait only appear when an individual is homozygous recessive, both alleles must code for the recessive trait
Is the trait being studied in the pedigree recessive or dominant?
you have to be more specific, like is there a diagram?
How are phenotypes used pedigree analysis?
The pedigree will typically show one kind of trait and the affected members of a family. Take a look at if the trait is dominant or recessive first. Once you have that figured out,start to predict the genotypes of the individuals in the pedigree.

In a pedigree an open circle represents what?
Pedigree charts are a graphic representation of a family's inheritance. An open circle indicates a female homozygous recessive for a trait.
A trait that is hidden?
The trait that is hidden is recessive trait.

How do geneticists develop a human pedigree?
A human pedigree is developed by showing phenotypes of a particular genetic trait from one generation to the next in a family. ChaCha
In human brown eyes (B) is a dominant trait and blue (b) , recessive trait?
Not my answer
When using a pedigree chart you can distinguish between recessive and dominant traits because?
The two most straight forward ways are: - If both parents have the trait, and one of their children does not, it must be recessive. - If neither parent has the trait, and one of their children does, it must be dominant.
In a hybrid individual the trait that is covered and not expressed is the what trait?
recessive
How is a pedigree helpful to geneticist?
Helps to track how a specific trait gets passed along. Can also help determine which traits are recessive and which aren't
How do you figure out if a trait is dominant or recessive without making an experiment?
research and making a chart or pedigree are tools you can use if you don't consider them experiments.
