What conditions would be necessary for the albino allele to be more frequent?

For the albino allele to be more frequent in a population, there needs to be a higher rate of genetic drift or a selective advantage associated with the albino phenotype. Additionally, reduced fitness of individuals with the normal pigmentation allele could also contribute to the increased frequency of the albino allele.


What colour is an albino animal?

An albino animal will have white fur and red eyes.


Are you albino?

Being albino only means a lack of pigment in skin, fur, and other parts of the body. An albino animal will have red irises in their eyes, as that's the lowest energy lightform there is, and is therefore easier to reflect. Any animal or person can be albino, as it is just a genetic malfunction.


A male and female bison that are both heterozygous for normal skin pigmentation produce an albino offspring Which of Mendels principles explain why the offspring is albino?

Both parents would each have one dominant gene for normal pigmintation and each would have one recessive albino gene. Say P is the dominant gene and q is the albino gene. Then the parents genotype would both be Pq. Below is a Punnet Square. The child's genotype is qq P q ------------------------------------- P / PP / Pq (carrier) / / / / ///////////////////////////////////////// q / Pq (carrier) / qq (albino) / / / / ////////////////////////////////////////


Are the parents of a albino plant homozygous or heterozygous?

The parents of an albino plant are likely to be heterozygous for the gene controlling albinism. This means they carry one normal allele and one albino allele. When these two alleles combine in the offspring, it results in the expression of the albino trait.
