If all of the children have freckles, that means that both parents had dominant genotypes. (Mother; FF and Father; FF). Or, one parent could have a hybrid genotype. (For example, Mother; Ff and Father; FF). Based on the outcome of a Punnett Square, either one parent must have a hybrid and the other dominant, or both must have dominant genotypes.

What is the phenotype of an organism-?

The phenotype of an organism is its physical appearance as determined by its genetic makeup.


How are genotypes and phenotype related?

Genotype and phenotype are to words that are not related. Genotype refers to classification by comparing genetics. Phenotype refers to classification according to the appearance of an organism.


What is a term used to express the appearance of the gene causes tallness in pea plant as an example?

Not entirely sure what you meant on that one, but I'll try and answer it. Genes have a genotype and a phenotype. (spelling?) A genotype is the "official label for the gene" (i.e. Tt, TT, tt) and phenotype descibes the appearance (i.e. homozygous tall, heterozygous tall, heterozygous short...) Hope this helps!


When inheritance of a particular trait follows a pattern of what individuals that are heterozygous for the trait have the same phenotype or physical characteristic as individuals who are homozyg?

This type of inheritance represents alleles at the same locus where one is recessive to the other. The dominant phenotype occurs in all heterozygous offspring as well as the homozygous dominant offspring. This yields a 3:1 phenotype and a 1:2:1 genotype.


In incomplete dominance genotypes can be expected to appear in a ratio of?

1:2:1, as incomplete dominance results in a blending of traits from two different alleles, producing an intermediate phenotype in heterozygous individuals. This ratio is characteristic of crosses involving incomplete dominance.


What is the outward appearance of a trait called?

phenotypeThe physical appearance of a trait is called a phenotype, not to be confused with a genotype( which is your genetic makeup) The way I remember is phenotype and physical both start with a p, and genotype and genetic both start with a g.


What is the phenotype of heterozygous?

it would be whatever the dominant phenotype is... heterozygous would mean having Gg so if G is green and g is white you would have a green plant if the genotype is heterozygous codominance


What is the genotype for erminette chickens?

An erminette chicken would carry both a black gene and a white gene. The erminette chicken represents the heterozygous phenotype.


What is the outward appearance of the trait called?

In genetics, the phenotype represents the physical characteristic/trait. For example brown eyes is a phenotype. When referring to alleles which are alternative forms of a gene, it is the dominant allele that is represented physically. For example if brown eyes are a dominant trait, then they would be represented physically in the genotypes BB and Bb.


What is the phenotype of homozygous yellow grained corn and heterozygous yellow grained corn?

The phenotype (as I assume would be colour) for both homozygous and heterozygous yellow-grained corn is yellow.


What Alleles that display equal power in determining a phenotype?

Homozygous dominant and heterozygous both are a dominant phenotype.
