Why is it difficult to determine the genotype of an organism that has a dominant phenotype?
NO, because a dominant phenotype could either be homozygous or a heterozygous.so unless you are sure about the genotype of parents we can't determine it...but we can determine the genotype of a person showing reccessive phenotype, as a recessive trait always expresses itself in a homozygous condition...

What does a genetic counselor construct to show the inheritance pattern of a genetic disorder within a family?
Its a pedigree. A pedigree shows the inheritance of a genetic disorder within a family and can help to determine the inheritance pattern and whether any particular individual has an allele for that disorder.
Which individual in the pedigree is a carrier?
You can use a test cross: a cross between an organism whose genotype for a certain trait is unknown and an organism that is homozygous recessive for that trait so the unknown genotype can be determined from that of the offspring.
How phenotype can be used to predict phenotype in a pedigree?
Phenotype is physical appearance of a character in a living being which depends on their genotype i.e. genetic constituents so by study of phenotype, genotype can be predicted which may or may not be exactly same but definately not wrong because every character can be homozygously dominant or hetrozygously dominant.

What kind of pedigree is it when my German shepherd has a grey coat?
A pedigree is a document naming the ancestors of a dog, their colors, genders, and titles. The color of a dog's coat doesn't really have anything to do with his pedigree. If the individual hairs in your dog's coat have multiple colors, like the hairs of a gray tabby cat, then the color is called "sable."

What things are included in a pedigree chart?
A pedigree chart, is a diagram that can be used to show the family genealogy or a dog's genealogy, when used for showing lineage. They generally include the name of the main individual, birth date, date of death and marriage date, if relevant. The next lines are usually the parents of said individual, giving the same information.
Are pedigree and akc registration the same thing?
No they are not. A "Pedigree" is a record of the lineage behind the dog, such as parents names, AKC numbers, OFA numbers, then grandparents, then great grand parents, etc. It depends on if you get a 3 or 5 generation pedigree. A breeder normally gives you a pedigree of your pup's background upon purchase or you can order a 3 or 5 generation Pedigree on your dog from the AKC. AKC records are the individual record of each purebred dog and has to be registered with the AKC. You can only get this if the parents were both registered with the American Kennel Club, AKC and the litter registration of their litter is registered with the AKC. The AKC will then issue out individual AKC papers for each pup in the litter. Hope that helps to explain the difference.
