There is not really anything called a male or female gene. There are sex chromosomes: X and Y. If a baby has XY (one from each parent), that child will be male. If the baby has XX, a girl is the result. The Y chromosome doesn't actually dominate but it has all the genes that produce male characterics. If a child is born without it, it will be female.
What else can I help you with?
A male with a missing SRY gene would be phenotypically?
A male with a missing SRY gene would typically have a female phenotype because the SRY gene on the Y chromosome is responsible for initiating male development. Without the SRY gene, the individual would develop along the female pathway.
Is Gene a male or a female name?
Gene is typically a unisex name, meaning it can be used for both males and females. It is often short for names like Eugene or Eugenia.
What gene determines whether a human will develop into a male or female?
The Y-chromosome. Think of it this way: Each person contains the genes to be a female. These genes are inherited on the X-chromosome which every normal person has. However, if you have a Y-chromosome, you now posses the genes to make a male, and are thus will be a male.
Is it possible for an XY embryo to develop as a female if the SRY gene on the Y chromosome is not present?
In humans, yes.By default, humans are female. A functional SRY gene stimulates the body to produce male characteristics that override the underlying female pattern. If the SRY gene is absent (or, as sometimes happens, mutated) an individual who is chromosomally XY will develop as a female. This is one cause of Swyer syndrome.
What are two forms that a gene or allele may take?
A gene or allele may take a dominant form, or a recessive form. If the allele is recessive, the characteristic which is coded for will be exhibited only if both the gene from the male and the gene from the female is recessive. Only one copy of a dominant allele is required to cause expression of the dominant characteristic
What is it called when genes in a gene pair blend together?
They are the genes from the male and female genes , or the X and Y chromosomes. The dominate genes is featured in the offspring.
Are female rabbit's bigger than male rabbits?
no usually the male rabbits are bigger than female , because male rabbits are more dominate.
A male with a missing SRY gene would be phenotypically?
A male with a missing SRY gene would typically have a female phenotype because the SRY gene on the Y chromosome is responsible for initiating male development. Without the SRY gene, the individual would develop along the female pathway.
Why does an adult male dog jump on a young felmale dog?
This means that the male is trying to dominate the female
Why female lemurs dominate the male which determine sexual orientation?
Just because the male determines sex of the offspring, doesn't mean that in all species of animals do males dominate.
Will a female dog dominate a male dog?
usally no but if that is happening to you tough your dog up
What is a the male and female genotype?
The genotype for a male is XY. A female is XX. The 23rd homologous pair is the sex gene that determines this.
What determines if you are male or female?
TDF (testicular determining factor) is a gene found on the Y chromosome that will determine if one is male or female. If it is present, one is a male. If it is absent, one is a female.
Is Gene a male or a female name?
Gene is typically a unisex name, meaning it can be used for both males and females. It is often short for names like Eugene or Eugenia.
Iam looking after a male lab who is trying to dominate my female lab who will not let him. How can you stop the fighting?
Keep them separated.
Are male or female calicos rare?
Males are rare, if they exist at all. The gene for the calico fur is carried by the female chromosome.
When will 2 dominate trait show its affect?
In the presence of one dominate gene
