total no of genes present in the complete set of chromosomes for all traits is called genome. while the no of genes for one specific trait is called as genotype.

What will the genotype be of the offspring of the two crossed rose bushes represented in the Punnett Square below if the offspring inherits the alleles represented by the question mark?

The genotype of the offspring will be WwMm, representing a heterozygous combination for both genes (Ww for gene 1 and Mm for gene 2). This means the offspring will inherit one dominant allele (W or M) and one recessive allele (w or m) for each gene.


How do you find possible phenotypes of offspring?

Mendel Diagrams. If the offspring gets a dominate gene from both parents, the offspring will exhibit traits from the dominate gene. If the offspring gets a dominate gene from one parent and a recessive gene from another, the offspring will exhibit traits from the dominate gene. If the offspring get a recessive gene from both parents, the offspring will exhibit traits from the recessive gene.


What would happen if the gene for colored spots was not passed from a moth to its offspring?

If the gene for colored spots was not passed from a moth to its offspring, the offspring would not have colored spots. Traits are inherited from parents through genes, so without the gene for colored spots, the offspring would not exhibit this specific physical characteristic.


How do you find the gene combination on a punnett square?

To find the gene combination on a Punnett square, you need to determine the possible combinations of alleles that can be inherited from each parent based on their genotypes. Then, you can fill in the Punnett square boxes with the possible allele combinations to see the potential genotypes of their offspring.


What are the parents if 75 of the offspring have a Dominant gene?

If 75 offspring have a Dominant gene, then the parents must have at least one Dominant gene each. This would make them either Dominant Homozygous (DD) or Heterozygous (Dd) for the Dominant trait.

A pink snapdragon has two genes that determine its color there is a white gene W and a red gene R the parent snapdragons only pass along one gene for color to an offspring What color will offspring be?

If the parent snapdragons pass along a white gene (W) to the offspring, then the offspring will be white. If the parent snapdragons pass along a red gene (R) to the offspring, then the offspring will be red.

How much gene material of the parents do each offspring plant have?

Each offspring plant inherits half of its genetic material from each parent. This means that offspring plants have a 50-50 combination of genes from the mother and father.

If a cow with horns is bred to a polled bull will her offspring be polled?

Yes, the offspring has a 50% chance of being polled. The polled gene is dominant over the horned gene, so if the bull does not carry the horned gene, the offspring will not have horns.


How many sets of the same gene that governs a characteristics do offsprings receive?

Offspring receive two sets of the same gene that governs a characteristic, one from each parent. These sets are called alleles, and they can be the same or different. The combination of alleles inherited can determine the traits expressed in the offspring.


Offspring that result from reproduction can always maintain a parent's gene combinations?

Offspring inherit a combination of genes from both parents, but this doesn't necessarily mean they maintain the exact gene combinations of either parent. Genetic recombination and independent assortment during meiosis result in unique combinations of genes in offspring. These genetic variations contribute to the diversity within a species.


How are the 2 forms of a gene distributed to the offspring?

The two forms of a gene, one from each parent, are distributed to offspring during meiosis when sex cells are formed. Each parent contributes one allele of a gene to the offspring, determining the genetic make-up and traits of the offspring.


Why is a son who receives the allele for combinations from his mother always colorblind?

Since the mother would be considered a carrier, the gene will be produced in the offspring. the son will receive that gene and will be colorblind.


What is the Mode of inheritance hemophilia?

Transmitted by a dominant gene. If that gene is inherited from either parent, the offspring will develop HD. If the gene is NOT inherited, then the offspring will not have HD- AND cannot pass the gene to their offspring.


How do the offspring of sexual reproduction compare to the parent?

The offspring has half of each of their parents' gene


What would happen if the gene for colored spots was not passed from a moth to its offspring?

If the gene for colored spots was not passed from a moth to its offspring, the offspring would not have colored spots. Traits are inherited from parents through genes, so without the gene for colored spots, the offspring would not exhibit this specific physical characteristic.
