alleles
A trait that always appears when it is present is called an obligate trait. This means that the trait is consistently expressed whenever the underlying genetic or environmental conditions are present.
The difference in the same trait is called variation.
The form of a trait that appears to mask another form of the same trait is called the dominant trait. Dominant traits will be expressed over recessive traits in a heterozygous individual.
That physical trait is known as phenotypic expression.
An organism with two like genes for a trait is called homozygous for that trait.
Multifactorial trait
When many genes are involved in coding for one trait, it is referred to as polygenic inheritance. In this type of inheritance, multiple alleles contribute to the phenotype, resulting in a continuous range of traits, such as height or skin color. Each gene may have a small additive effect on the trait, leading to the observed variation in the population.
Yes, a single gene can affect many traits. this is called plieotropy
A genotype heterozygous for a gene means having two different alleles for that gene. In the case of the gene for the trait "C", a heterozygous genotype would be "Cc", with one allele coding for the trait and the other not coding for the trait.
The weaker trait is called the recessive trait The stronger one is called the dominant trait
recessive trait
The trait that is hidden is recessive trait.
The ruling trait is the Dominant trait.
To determine if one trait could affect the inheritance of another trait
A trait that always appears when it is present is called an obligate trait. This means that the trait is consistently expressed whenever the underlying genetic or environmental conditions are present.
The difference in the same trait is called variation.
A trait that masks another trait is called a dominant trait. This means that when an organism carries both dominant and recessive alleles for a particular gene, only the dominant trait will be expressed in the phenotype.
