Do most cells in your body have alleles for every trait?

Yes, most cells in the human body have two alleles for every gene that determine traits. These alleles come from each parent and are responsible for the variation in physical traits among individuals.


Do gametes have two alleles per trait and organisms have one?

Gametes have one allele per trait, as they are haploid cells with half the normal number of chromosomes. Organisms are typically diploid and have two alleles per trait, one from each parent. Each gamete carries only one allele which then combines during fertilization to restore the diploid number of chromosomes in the offspring.


The two alleles for a trait seperate when gametes are formed?

This is known as Mendel's law of segregation, where alleles of a gene separate during the formation of gametes, ensuring that each gamete carries only one allele. This process results in genetic variation in offspring due to the random assortment of alleles.


What was medels specific law where a diploid organism transfers only one allele to its gametes?

Mendel's Law of Segregation states that a diploid organism carries two alleles for each gene, but only passes on one allele to each offspring. This process ensures genetic diversity and the random assortment of alleles into gametes.


Each gamete gets one gene from each trait?

In meiosis, each gamete receives one allele for each gene, ensuring genetic diversity and random assortment of traits in offspring. This process helps create unique combinations of genes in gametes, leading to variability in traits among individuals.

What process causes gametes to have only one allele?

In sexual reproduction each parent contributes only one allele to the offspring. This is why meiosis takes diploid cells and makes them haploid. The process meiosis separates the homologous pairs, separating the alleles from each other. Thus, each gamete produced has only one allele for each trait. When the male gamete (sperm) fuses with the female gamete (egg) and fertilization takes place, the resulting zygote has two alleles; one from the father and one from the mother.


Cells containg two alleles for each trait are described as?

diploid.

What are the two alleles that control the appearance of a trait?

Dominant and Recessive Alleles Diploid organisms typically have two alleles for a trait. When allele pairs are the same, they are homozygous. When the alleles of a pair are heterozygous, the phenotype of one trait may be dominant and the other recessive.

What is an organism that carries two different alleles for one trait?

In one sense it is called a Diploid Organism.

Mendel's law of segregation states that an organism inherits two alleles for any given trait one from each parent?

Mendel's law of segregation states that each organism carries two alleles for a trait, one from each parent, and during gamete formation, these alleles segregate randomly into separate gametes. This results in each gamete carrying only one allele for a given trait.


What organism has two different alleles for a trait?

[I'm not sure if you are looking for examples or a classification, but] Diploid Organisms have two copies of every gene (so they have two alleles for every trait). We are examples, so are most, if not all, Animals, and the longer portion of many Plant life cycles is also in the diploid state.


What is the principle of independence party?

the law of independent assortment was formulated by Mendel. Alleles separate independently during the process of gamete production. The offspring show traits independent of the parents.
