One can determine whether a pedigree trait is dominant or recessive by observing how the trait is passed down through generations. If the trait appears in every generation, it is likely dominant. If the trait skips generations, it is likely recessive. Genetic testing can also help confirm the inheritance pattern of the trait.

Is the deletion mutation dominant or recessive?
A deletion mutation can be dominant or recessive, depending on the specific gene affected and the consequences of the deletion on the protein encoded by that gene. In general, the impact of a deletion mutation on an individual's phenotype will determine whether it is dominant or recessive.
To determine the genotype of an individual that shows the dominant phenotype you would cross that individual with one that is?
To determine the genotype of an individual that shows the dominant phenotype you would cross that individual with one that is homozygous recessive. A monohybrid cross of two individuals that are heterozygous for a trait exhibiting complete dominance would probably result in a phenotype ratio is 3 dominant 1 recessive.
Why is it difficult to determine the genotype of an organism that has a dominant phenotype?
NO, because a dominant phenotype could either be homozygous or a heterozygous.so unless you are sure about the genotype of parents we can't determine it...but we can determine the genotype of a person showing reccessive phenotype, as a recessive trait always expresses itself in a homozygous condition...
What determines whether a person will have dominant or recessive hair color?
Hair color is determined by genes inherited from parents. Dominant genes for hair color will be expressed over recessive genes, resulting in the dominant color being displayed. If both parents pass on recessive genes, the recessive color will be seen.
How is dominant trait and recessive trait related?
They are related to each other because whether they are dominant or recessive they are both homozygous, meaning the same. They can either be homozygous dominant or homozygous recessive. If they are heterozygous then they are different because it contains one dominant and one recessive allele each. EX: AA=homozygous dominant allele aa=homozygous recessive allele Aa=heterozygous allele
Is the deletion mutation dominant or recessive?
A deletion mutation can be dominant or recessive, depending on the specific gene affected and the consequences of the deletion on the protein encoded by that gene. In general, the impact of a deletion mutation on an individual's phenotype will determine whether it is dominant or recessive.
Is homologous dominant?
In genetics, alleles can be classified as either dominant or recessive. The term "homologous" refers to the pairing of chromosomes in meiosis. Whether an allele is dominant or recessive depends on its effect on the phenotype when paired with another allele. Homologous chromosomes do not determine the dominance of an allele.
Can you determine whether an allele is dominant or rescessive on the basis of the ratio of the phenotypes in the population?
No, the determination of whether an allele is dominant or recessive is based on the inheritance pattern of the traits. Dominant alleles are expressed in the phenotype even if only one copy is present, while recessive alleles are only expressed when two copies are present. Phenotype ratios in a population can hint at the presence of dominant or recessive traits but do not definitively determine the dominance relationship of an allele.
To determine the genotype of an individual that shows the dominant phenotype you would cross that individual with one that is?
To determine the genotype of an individual that shows the dominant phenotype you would cross that individual with one that is homozygous recessive. A monohybrid cross of two individuals that are heterozygous for a trait exhibiting complete dominance would probably result in a phenotype ratio is 3 dominant 1 recessive.
How is a pedigree?
A pedigree is used to determine whether you are at risk of inheriting a particular genetic disorder.
How dominant or recessive alleles for the trait of stem height determine whether a pea plant will be tall or short?
The dominant trait for height in a pea plant is tall (TT or Tt). The only instance in which a pea plant will be short is if it carries both recessive alleles (tt).

What are domiant traits?
A dominant trait is a dominant phenotype in individuals who have one copy of an allele, which can come from just one parent. Dominant alleles do not physically dominate or repress recessive alleles. Whether an allele is dominant or recessive depends on the particulars of the proteins they code for.
What is an alternate form that a gene may have can be dominant or recessive?
not to sure what your question is asking, if you want to know whether a gene can be anything other than dominant or recessive, then... some genes are co-dominant meaning both genes are expressed in the phenotype.
How do you analyze a pedigree chart?
To analyze a pedigree chart, start by noting patterns of inheritance for a specific trait or disease. Look for how the trait is passed through generations and whether it appears to follow a dominant, recessive, or X-linked pattern. Pay attention to any affected individuals, their relationships, and their offspring to understand the mode of inheritance and risk of passing on the trait.
