Heterozygous, because it has one dominant allele (B) and one recessive allele (b).

An organism with two identical alleles (such as BB or bb) would be homozygous.

Is BB a genotype or a Phenotype?

Genotype


How can you explain the fact that the offspring that has a BB genotype and one that has a Bb genotype are both black?

B is dominant.


What is geneotype?

Genotype versus Phenotype Genotype is your specific gene for a certain Trait. lets say B was for Tall gene and b is for small gene. your Genotype to Tall could be BB or Bb your gentype for small will be bb. Phenotype is what is the physical Appearance evne though the Genotpe has one gene that codes for big and one that codes for small for example (Bb) the physical appearnce is Tall.


What blood type can be found in an offspring if a mother has type AB blood and the father has type A blood?

The mother is genotype AB, the father is either genotype BO or BB. If the father is genotype BO, the children can be genotype AB, AO, BB, or BO. This results in children with phenotype blood types of: AB, A, or B. If the father is genotype BB, the children can be genotype AB, AB, BB, or BB. This results in children with phenotype blood types of: AB or B.

This results in children with phenotype blood types of: AB, A, or B. If the father is genotype BB, the children can be genotype AB, AB, BB, or BB.

What will be the blood group of a child if the parents were bb?

If both parents are genotype BB, the child can only be blood type B. The child's genotype would also be BB.


What are the similarities and differences between phenotypes and genotypes?

The genotype of an organism is the group of characteristics derived from a combination of heredity and environmental factors. Genotype is based on genetic factors only. phenotypes are the genes that an organism carries. For example, the gene for blue eyes could be b and the gene for brown eyes could be B. Bb is a genotype. Phenotype is the trait that show up. Since brown eyes are dominant, the phenotype of Bb would be brown eyes.
