It's a genotype. The phenotype is a physical manifestation of the genotype, which means that it's what happens on the outside because an organism has the gene. An example of a phenotype would be if someone had blue eyes or something. The genotype is the two-letter abbreviation thingy.

If R is dominant to r the offspring of the cross of RR with rr will be homozygous?

R R r Rr Rr r Rr Rr That is the Punnet Square. The genotype will be 100% Rr in the cross. The phenotype will be whatever phenotype is constituted by your dominant allele.


If a Red (RR) and White flower (rr) were crossbred resulting in 100 Rr what phenotype(s) would been seen according to the rules of IN-complete dominance?

In incomplete dominance, the phenotype of the offspring is a blend of the parent traits. If a red flower (RR) is crossed with a white flower (rr), all offspring (Rr) would exhibit a phenotype that is intermediate between red and white, often resulting in pink flowers. Therefore, the observed phenotype in this case would be pink.


What gametes will be produced by each parent RR x rr?

The genotype is always the "gene formula", in this case Rr.The phenotype is the expression of the genes (how the animal or plant looks, functions, or behaves). In this case, it's a bit hard to say what the phenotype would be without knowing what R is!If the question is about garden peas, and if R is the dominant allele responsible for round seeds, and r the recessive allele producing wrinkled seeds, then the genotype Rr will produce the phenotype of the dominant allele, i.e. round seeds.


If an organism expresses a recessive phenotype can you tell its genotype?

Yes because if the phenotype is recessive there is only one possible genotype, little letter little letter ex. rr (wrikled pea plant seed), cc (albino), tt (short pea plant) whereas if you have a dominante phenotype there are two possible genotypes, big letter big letter or big letter little letter ex. RR Rr (round pea plant seed), CC Cc (normal skin pigmentation) TT Tt (Tall Pea plant)


What causes the change in phenotype frequency in a population after each generation?

Gene mutation causes the phenotype frequency in a population to change after each generation.

What is phenotype of Rr?

It is Dominant. R is the dominant and r is the recessive. The dominate trait shadows the recessive trait. It is Dominant. R is the dominant and r is the recessive. The dominate trait shadows the recessive trait. Is dominant. dominant can be RR or Rr. but when its recessive its rr.


Would Rr show a dominant or recessive phenotype?

dominant


The phenotype of the rr genotype would be?

The genotypes would be: RR, RR, RR, and Rr As for the phenotypes, you cannot tell without knowing what the alleles represent.


What was the genotype of the offspring that did not share the parent's phenotype?

The genotype of the offspring that had the same phenotype as the parents is rr or wrinkled. The phenotype for the seed shape of both parent plants is round.


When crossing a Rr genotype with a rr genotype what will the ratio of RR to rr be in the resulting generation?

The resulting generation will have a 1:1 ratio of RR to rr genotypes when crossing an Rr genotype with a rr genotype, as each parent will contribute one allele to the offspring.


What ultimately determines the phenotype of an individual?

The phenotype of an individual is ultimately determined by a combination of their genetic makeup (genotype) and environmental factors. Genes provide the instructions for building and maintaining an organism, while the environment can influence the expression of these genes. The interaction between genetics and environment shapes the physical and behavioral characteristics that make up an individual's phenotype.


When traits are inherited in an incomplete dominance pattern what is true about the phenotype of the heterozygotes?

A trait that exhibits incomplete dominance, is one in which the heterozygous offspring will have a phenotype that is a blend between the two parent organisms. An example of this is when a homozygous red sweet pea flower crossed with a homozygous white sweet pea flower, their offspring will be heterozygous and have the pink phenotype, rather than either red or white.

What is pheonotype?

A phenotype refers to an organism's physical characteristics or traits that result from the interaction of genetic and environmental factors. It includes attributes like height, eye color, and behavior that are observable or measurable in an organism. Phenotype is influenced by an individual's genotype, which is the specific genetic makeup of an organism.


If there is a 2 out of 4 ratio on a punnet square what are the chances of getting 4 offspring all the recessive phenotype?

If I'm correct in what you mean by a 2 out of 4 punett square (probability of offspring having 1 gene from 1 parent if the other parent has none of that gene) the you can get the answer with some basic statistics:P(A) * P(B) * P(C) * P(D) = P(A, B, C, and D in 4 iterations assuming independent events)A = .5B = .5(.5 * .5 * .5 * .5) = .0625 = 6.25%
