All of the F1 generation are heterozygous, therefore 100% exhibit the dominant phenotype. The F2 generation has a ratio of 1 homozygous dominant: 2 heterozygous: 1 homozygous recessive. This results in a phenotypic ratio of 3 dominant: 1 recessive.

In incomplete dominance genotypes can be expected to appear in a ratio of?

The expected phenotype for a Mendal F1 monohybrid cross is 3:1. Looking at heterozygous parents (F1) who share the same dominant trait, e.g. Straight tail.Crossing two heterozygous parents from the F1 generation results in an F2 generation that produces a 75% chance for the appearance of the dominant phenotype, of which two-thirds are heterozygous, and a 25% chance for the appearance of the recessive phenotype, giving the ratio 3;1.Inheritance pattern of dominant and recessive phenotypes when each parent is homozygous for either the dominant or recessive trait. All members of the F1generation are heterozygous and share the same dominant phenotype, while the F2generation exhibits a 3:1 ratio of dominant to recessive phenotypes.


A trait that appears or is expressed in the f1 generation is what?

the dominant trait


Mendel accounted for the observation that traits which had disappeared in the F1 generation reappeared in the F2 generation by proposing that?

C) traits can be dominant or recessive, and the recessive traits were obscured by the dominant ones in the F1


Is it true that mendel assumed that a dominant allele had masked the corresponding recessive allele in the f1 generation?

No. A recessive trait is masked by a dominant trait.


According to mendel what genes disappear in f1 pea plants?

No genes disappear in the F1 generation. Each of the F1 plants was heterozygous, having both a dominant and recessive alleles. The recessive phenotype disappears in the F1 generation because all members of that generation carry a dominant allele. In the F2 generation, the recessive phenotype will reappear.

3:1 homozygous dominant, heterozygous dominant, heterozygous dominant and homozygous recessive.

Why phenotypes don't always express its entire genotype?

Phenotypes are the entirety of the observable traits. Genotypes are the instructions in the genetic code. Dominant alleles override the recessive alleles, making only the dominant alleles expressed.

What phenotypes are present in F1 generation?

The phenotypes present in the F1 generation depend on the phenotypes of the parental generation (and the environment). The F1 generation will display the dominant trait(s). For example, if T is tall and t is short, in the cross TT X tt the F1 generation will have the phenotype corresponding to the T allele (tall).


Can a recessive gene be hidden from a dominant?

The dominant gene will always "cover up" the recessive gene, although there are instances of codominance, in which both phenotypes will be displayed, because one gene is not completely dominant over the other. There is also what is called 'incomplete dominance', when the actual phenotype is somewhere between the two.


The outward appearance of a particular trait is called?

The outward expression of genetic traits are called phenotypes. Phenotypes expression include recessive and dominant genes such as eye and hair color.


Is it true that mendel assumed that a dominant allele had masked the corresponding recessive allele in the f1 generation?

No. A recessive trait is masked by a dominant trait.


If an offspring receives a pair of trait-controllers containing both a dominant and a recessive trait what happens to the recessive trait?

The dominant trait is shown in that organism with the possibility of carrying either the dominant or recessive gene to the next generation
