How are genotype and phenotype alike?

Genotype is the specific combination of genes that contribute to a trait that an organism has. (For example, the genes for being tall).Phenotype is the expression of the trait which is partially influenced due to the genotype and partly by the environment (Even if you have the genes for being tall, if you are malnourished you will not grow as tall).


How many dominant alleles must be present in order to show the dominant phenotype?

Only one dominant allele is needed to display the dominant phenotype. Dominant alleles are expressed when present, masking the effect of recessive alleles.


What is most likely to cause no difference in phenotype between two individuals?

If the two individuals are homozygous for a particular trait (have the same alleles), they are likely to exhibit no difference in phenotype. This is because they have identical genetic information for that particular trait, leading to the same observable characteristics.


Compare and contrast genotype and phenotype?

An organism's genotype is its genetic identity. The genotype is comprised of all the genetic material inherited from both parents. The genotype is what "tells" each individual cell how to function. The phenotype is the physical expression of an organism's genotype. For example, if a person's genotype for eye color is one dominant allele for brown and one recessive for blue, then the individual's phenotype would be their actual eye color which in this case would be brown.


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...

Cross Breeding


Based on the pedigree above how many offspring from this cross had the recessive phenotype?

To determine the number of offspring with the recessive phenotype from the pedigree, you would need to analyze the specific symbols and relationships depicted in the pedigree chart. Typically, the recessive phenotype is represented by a specific shape or shading. By counting the individuals displaying that phenotype among the offspring shown in the pedigree, you can arrive at the total number of offspring with the recessive trait. If the pedigree is not provided, I cannot give an exact number.

How many recessive alleles are needed to show up in the phenotype?

Two (together).


What many occur when both alleles contribute to the phenotype that is not exactly like of either parent?

When both alleles contribute to the phenotype in a way that is not exactly like either parent, this is known as incomplete dominance. In this genetic scenario, the resulting phenotype is a blend of the traits from both alleles, producing an intermediate appearance. For example, crossing red and white flowers may result in pink flowers, demonstrating this blending effect. This contrasts with complete dominance, where one allele completely masks the effect of the other.
