What kind of allele must an organism inherit in order for a recessive trait to show up?
Neither of the parents will be affected. There may not be any one with he disease in either of the parents families (or there might be). Since each parent is a carrier and has a 50/50 chance of passing one copy of the gene to each child 1/4 of the children will not get the gene, 1/2 will be carriers (1 copy) and 1/4 wil be affected (2 copies).
Is the trait for fur color a single gen trait or a polygenic trait?
The trait for fur color can be both. In some species, like mice, fur color is determined by a single gene with different alleles. In other species, like dogs or humans, fur color can be controlled by multiple genes interacting together (polygenic trait).
What is the difference between a gene and trait?
Trait is a characteristic like: tall, short, black eyes, blue eyes Trait is determine by the genes: your gene is a little section on chromosome. A gene that control 1 trait usually have 2 alleles, for ex: Blue eyes is : Bb (b or B are the alleles make up the gene that determine the trait.) hope this help for whoever confuse!
Difference between genes and alleles?
Genes are segments of DNA that encode specific traits, while alleles are different variations of a gene that can result in different forms of a trait. Each individual inherits two alleles for a gene, one from each parent, which can be the same (homozygous) or different (heterozygous).
A trait has two alleles represented by p and q if p equals 0.42 what is q?
0.65
What is a homozygous dominant offspring are?
Offspring that posses two different forms of the same gene. These are called alleles.
How many alleles for 1 trait do you get from your mother?
You get one allele for 1 trait from your mother. Alleles are alternative forms of a gene, and you inherit one allele for each trait from each parent.

What is heterzygous in genes?
A heterozygous dominant gene is a gene that is more dominant in the gene pool but is made up of 2 diffrent traits passed from parent example: A heterzygous gene would be Tt for tall. The T stands for domintant trait as being tall and the t stands for the recessive trait short. All heterzygous means is that it is made up with 1 captial letter and 1 lowercase letter.
1 What is the difference between homozygous and heterozygous?
Homozygous refers to having two identical alleles for a trait, while heterozygous refers to having two different alleles for a trait. In other words, homozygous individuals have either two dominant or two recessive alleles, while heterozygous individuals have one dominant and one recessive allele.
Is the trait for fur color a single gen trait or a polygenic trait?
The trait for fur color can be both. In some species, like mice, fur color is determined by a single gene with different alleles. In other species, like dogs or humans, fur color can be controlled by multiple genes interacting together (polygenic trait).
A trait has 2 alleles represented by p and q. If p 0.35 what is q?
In a trait with two alleles represented by p and q, the sum of the frequencies of the alleles must equal 1. Therefore, if p = 0.35, you can find q by subtracting p from 1. This gives q = 1 - 0.35, which means q = 0.65.
A trait has two alleles and their frequencies are represented by p and q. If p 0.68 what is q?
In a population with two alleles for a trait, the frequencies of the alleles must add up to 1. If the frequency of allele p is 0.68, then the frequency of allele q can be calculated as q = 1 - p. Therefore, q = 1 - 0.68 = 0.32.
A trait has two alleles represented by p and q if p equals .35 what is q?
In a trait with two alleles represented by p and q, the sum of the frequencies of the alleles must equal 1. If p equals 0.35, then q can be calculated as q = 1 - p. Therefore, q = 1 - 0.35, which equals 0.65.

Explain segregation of alleles using pea plants?
if the pea plant has 2 recessive alleles then the plant is gonna come out short.but if it has 1 recessive and one dominant allele then the plant turns out tall, because the dominant allele can be present without the recessive allele.
Difference between genes and alleles?
Genes are segments of DNA that encode specific traits, while alleles are different variations of a gene that can result in different forms of a trait. Each individual inherits two alleles for a gene, one from each parent, which can be the same (homozygous) or different (heterozygous).
