What else can I help you with?
Would a disease caused by exposure to chemicals be considered a genetic trait?
A genetic trait is passed on through the genes. Which means that disease from exposure to chemicals is not inherited.
Is whistling a genetic trait?
No it's not a genetic trait. If your father or an uncle always whistles (my father use to do this and I loved the sound of it) then it's a habit you can pick up, but it's one of the better habits.
A female frog has a genetic trait that prevents it from producing eggs?
If a female frog has a genetic trait that prevents it from producing eggs the likelihood that it will spread through the frog population is impossible or very unlikely. The female frog cannot reproduce thus when she dies, so would the genetic trait.
What are the possible causes of genetic variation?
Anaphase 1 - the crossing over of chromosomes, they swap genetic material determining what you genetically inherit
What is a word that starts with an r that is the genetic material in a daughter cell not found in either parent?
recessive trait
What is the significance of genotypes where the alleles are the same in genetic inheritance?
When genotypes have the same alleles in genetic inheritance, it means that the individual is homozygous for that particular trait. This can have significance in determining the expression of that trait in the individual.
Is myopia a sex linked trait?
No, myopia is not a sex-linked trait. It is a complex trait influenced by both genetic and environmental factors. While genetics play a role, there is no direct link to sex chromosomes determining the development of myopia.
What physical appearance of a trait is called the while genetic composition is?
A very simple way to understand the two is this: phenotype is what you see and genotype is what genes are there. Phenotypes are expressed genes and genotypes include recessive genes that are not seen.
What is a genetic trait?
A trait is an observable, physical characteristic of an organism (a phenotype). A FACTOR is the underlying genetic cause of the TRAIT (the genotype).
What does trait?
genetic likeness.
What is used to describe a trait that is controlled by many genes?
A genetic trait.
A genetic factor that covers up another genetic factor is called?
A dominant trait is a genetic factor that blocks another genetic factor. A recessive trait is a genetic factor that is blocked by the presence of a dominant fact
Is being cross eyed a genetic trait?
Yes, being cross-eyed can be a genetic trait. It can be inherited from one or both parents.
Why do you have unattached ears?
It is a dominant genetic trait. If you get a gene for it from either parent, you will have this trait.
Are gametes haploid or diploid in terms of their genetic composition?
Gametes are haploid in terms of their genetic composition.
Which type of genetic trait appears in every generation of offspring?
A dominant genetic trait appears in every generation of offspring because only one copy of the dominant allele is needed for the trait to be expressed.
What is the type of trait that has many phenotypes?
The trait that describes the collected results of phenotypic expression of Genes - the karyotype describes the physical form of the {finally composed} shape of the organism. Added: A polymorphic trait. Could be the result of polygenic genetic composition, or anything in the environment, such as temporal or physical separations in the same population of organisms.
