If a test cross between a homozygous recessive and heterozygous allele will yield what percent of offspring as homozygous recessive?

25%


A mother that is heterozygous for a trait and a father who is homozygous recessive for the same trait have offspring Use this information to complete the matching below Enter the letter of the item?

A. Offspring with heterozygous genotype 100 percent B. Offspring with homozygous dominant genotype 0 percent C. Offspring with at least one copy of recessive gene 50 percent


What is the result of a cross between an individual who is homozygous dominant and another who is homozygous recessive for a trait?

All the offspring will be heterozygous with a phenotype showing the dominant trait. Let the alleles be H (dominant) and h (recessive). All the gametes from the first individual will be H, and from the other, h. Thus all the offspring must be Hh.


What is the probability that an individual heterozygous for a cleft chin and individual homozygous for chin without cleft will produce offsprings that are homozygous recessive for chin without cleft?

The probability that an individual heterozygous for a cleft chin and an individual homozygous for a chin without a cleft will produce offspring that are homozygous recessive for a chin without a cleft is fifty percent. You can calculate this by making a Punnet square.


Which type of cross would produce 100 percent heterozygous offspring?

A cross between two homozygous parents will form a 100 percent chance of a heterozygous offspring. One homozygous parent must have the dominant allele, and the other must have the recessive allele. So, if the circumstances are correct, these characteristics will make for a 100 percent chance of a heterozygous offspring.

A parent that is homozygous for a dominant trait is crossed with a parent that is homozygous for the recessive trait What percentage of the offspring will display the dominant trait?

100% of the offspring will display the dominant trait because the homozygous dominant parent can only pass on the dominant allele. The offspring will inherit one dominant allele from the dominant parent and one recessive allele from the recessive parent, resulting in a heterozygous genotype expressing the dominant trait.

If about 50 percent of the offspring have the dominant phenotype and 50 percent have the recessive phenotype what are the genotype of the parents?

If the phenotype is recessive then the genotype must be dd.


If a homozygous dominant is crossed with a homozygous recessive for a given trait the offspring will be?

The phenotype will show the dominant trait. All dominant traits mask recessive ones; If the genotype is heterozygous (One dominant and one recessive) the organism's phenotype will be dominant.


What percentage of the offspring will most likely show the dominant trait?

More information is needed. The percent of offspring that will display the recessive trait from parents with Hh and HH will be different than the percent of offspring that will display the recessive trait from parents with hh and Hh.


The offspring of two parents that are heterozygous for a given trait have a percent chance of being homozygous for that trait?

This would result in 1 heterozygous offspring. You can think of it like this: If the first parent is homozygous it would have AA alleles, the second heterozygous parent would be AB. When they mix genetically it would result in 4 combinations: AA, AA, AA, AB. As there is only one B there can only be one heterozygous offspring. This is not expected it is certain.


What are the changes of a child getting a recessive trait if one partent is homozygous domiant for that trait?

0 percent.
