A dog breeder can determine that the sudden appearance of hairlessness in one of the puppies is a mutation if the dog?

exhibits a new, unexpected trait not seen in either parent. The hairlessness trait is not present in the genetic makeup of the parents, suggesting it arose from a sudden genetic change. By observing this distinct trait only in one offspring, the breeder can confirm it as a mutation.


In which offspring does a dominant trait appear?

A dominant trait will appear in offspring that inherits at least one copy of the dominant allele from either parent. If an individual has two different alleles for a trait (one dominant and one recessive), the dominant trait will be expressed.


What is a dimples trait?

Dimples are small indentations that can appear on the cheeks when someone smiles. They are considered a genetic trait and are often inherited from family members. Dimples are seen as a cute or attractive feature by some people.


When will a recessive trait show its effect?

A recessive trait will be expressed when there is no dominant allele in the genotype for that trait. In a Mendelian trait, where one gene with one dominant and one recessive allele governs a trait, a recessive trait will be expressed when the individual's genotype for that trait is homozygous recessive, meaning that both of the individual's alleles for that trait are recessive.


What type of trait is only seen if its gene is present in both gametes that unite to start the life of a new organism?

Recessive trait. This type of trait is only expressed when the individual has two copies of the gene for that trait, one from each parent. If only one copy is present, the dominant trait will be expressed.

The trait that can not be seen is recessive to the one that is dominant.


What a recessive trait?

A recessive trait is a trait that is not dominant, and is not really seen in ones phenotype.


Is nosey a character trait?

No, "nosey" is not considered a character trait. It is typically seen as a behavior associated with being overly curious, intrusive, or inquisitive about others' personal affairs.


What is a trait created by a gene that is seen outside the physical organism?

It is called the phenotype or phenotypic trait.


Is loyalty a character trait?

Yes, loyalty is a character trait that involves being faithful and committed to someone or something, especially in difficult times. It is seen as a positive quality that reflects reliability and dependability in relationships.


Why can't we see black holes and what prevents them from being visible to us?

Black holes cannot be seen because they do not emit any light. Their strong gravitational pull prevents even light from escaping, making them invisible to us.


Is hard working a character trait?

Yes, being hardworking is considered a character trait. It reflects a person's dedication, persistence, and willingness to put in effort to achieve their goals. Hardworking individuals are often seen as determined and diligent in their pursuits.

Is forgiveness a character trait?

Forgiveness is a psychological process that involves letting go of anger, resentment, and the desire for revenge toward someone who has harmed you. While it is seen as a positive trait that can promote emotional well-being and improve relationships, it is not necessarily a fixed character trait but can be cultivated through practice and personal growth.


What is it called when a trait that is not seen when a dominant gene is paired with a recessive gene?

Heterozygous dominant. Could also be called a masked trait.

Is a dominant trait seen in the first generation or the second generation?

Dominant traits tend to manifest whenever they are inherited. The real question is, "When do you see recessive traits?" Traits are coded in genes. We all inherit genes from both of our parents. If the dominant trait is capital Y and the recessive trait is lowercase y we can calculate the odds fairly easily. There are only four combinations that can be inherited from one pair of parents: YY, Yy, yY, and yy (this is usually visualized using a "punnet square"). Only in the case of both inherited traits being lowercase y will we see the recessive trait. Otherwise, we will usually see the dominant trait.
