dominant and recessive genes say the mom had black hair and her mom had blond hair and the dad had black hair and his mom had red hair if the baby had red or blond hair the parents had those as recessive genes its all about ancestry and genes. PS I'm an 11 year old middle scholar

What percentage of the offspring will most likely show the dominant trait?
More information is needed. The percent of offspring that will display the recessive trait from parents with Hh and HH will be different than the percent of offspring that will display the recessive trait from parents with hh and Hh.
What is gene G responsible for in fruit flies?
its responsible for the offspring trait which they get from their parents
How many offspring are likely to have recessive traits if the parents are hybrids?
50%. There are four possible outcomes of the cross:dominant trait from "dad", dominant trait from "mom"recessive trait from "dad", dominant trait from "mom"dominant trait from "dad", recessive trait from "mom"recessive trait from "dad", recessive trait from "mom"Therefore, to get hybrid offspring (one dominant, one recessive), you have a 2 out of 4 chance.

If an offspring shows a phenotype that is intermediate between the phenotypes of the parents what is this type of inheritance?
Incomplete dominance can create offspring that display a trait not identical to either parent but intermediate to the two. One example of incomplete dominance is a red flower and a white flower crossbreed to form a pink flower.
How can offspring inherit a recessive trait?
An offspring can inherit a recessive trait if both of its parents are homozygous for the dominant allele.
What is a trait that will appear in yhe offspring if one of the parents contributes it?
In order for a recessive trait to appear in the offspring, it must inherit a recessive allele for that trait from both parents.
What percentage of the offspring will most likely show the dominant trait?
More information is needed. The percent of offspring that will display the recessive trait from parents with Hh and HH will be different than the percent of offspring that will display the recessive trait from parents with hh and Hh.
What percentage of offspring in the F2 generation displayed the recessive trait?
50% because it divided half to
What is the percentage of the possible types of offspring had the same genotype as the parents?
Since there is no information on the genetic make up of the parents only a generalized set of answerscan be given.The chance of an offspring being genetically identical in every way to either or both of its parents is virtually nil.The percentages of individuals that match the genetics of the parents for a few traits can be determined through the use of a punnet square.For example considering a single trait where one parent is homozygous dominant and the other is homozygous recessive zero offspring will have the genotype of either parent.If the parents are heterozygous for a single trait 50% of the offspring will have the genotype of the parents for that trait.The more gene pairs considered the less likely an offspring identical to the parents is possible.
When offspring show a blend of the parents traits one allele is dominant over the other?
The results in the offspring hinge on the genetic make up of the parents. Each expressed trait is either the result of a dominant or recessive phenotype. The relative dominance or recessiveness of the alleles doesn't change only the rate at which they are expressed based on the allele present for each obseerved trait in the parents.

its responsible for the offspring trait which they get from their parents
What plant produces offspring's with the same trait as the parents?
answer: true breeding plant
What is meant by recessive trait when discussing genetics?
When discussing genetics, recessive trait refers to the fact that the offspring of two parents must inherit two copies of a gene to expose the trait. This would mean that both parents must be carriers of said gene in order for their offspring to show a recessive trait.
How many offspring are likely to have recessive traits if the parents are hybrids?
50%. There are four possible outcomes of the cross:dominant trait from "dad", dominant trait from "mom"recessive trait from "dad", dominant trait from "mom"dominant trait from "dad", recessive trait from "mom"recessive trait from "dad", recessive trait from "mom"Therefore, to get hybrid offspring (one dominant, one recessive), you have a 2 out of 4 chance.
