Heterozygous means having different alleles on corresponding sites on the two chromosomes. Here are some sentences.

  • We studied heterozygous traits in class today.
  • Her genes are heterozygous for eye color.
  • Many genes are heterozygous, and the dominant trait is expressed.

What is a cross called that involves one trait?

It is a dihybrid cross.An example: if you cross garden peas having round yellow seeds with others having wrinkled green seeds, that is a dihybrid cross, because you are tracking both seed shape and seed color.

What is the difference between a monohybrid and dihybird cross?

A monohybrid cross involves the study of one trait or gene, whereas a dihybrid cross involves the study of two traits or genes simultaneously. In a monohybrid cross, only one pair of alleles is considered, while in a dihybrid cross, two pairs of alleles are considered.


What is the difference between monohybrid and dihybrid crosses?

In monohybrid crosses, only one trait is considered, while in dihybrid crosses, two traits are considered simultaneously. Monohybrid crosses involve only one genetic locus, while dihybrid crosses involve two different genetic loci. The Punnett square for a monohybrid cross is a 2x2 grid, while for a dihybrid cross it is a 4x4 grid.


Is a Monohybrid Cross the same as a punnet square if not what's the difference?

A punnett square is the diagram used to determine the expected genotypic ratios for the offspring.A dihybrid cross is a cross involving two different traits. For example RrDd X RrDd would be a dihybrid cross. You could use a punnett square to determine the expected ratios for this cross:RDRdrDrdRDRRDDRRDdRrDDRrDdRdRRDdRRddRrDdRrddrDRrDDRrDdrrDDrrDdrdRrDdRrddrrDdrrddOne parent's genotype is shown across the top, the other down the side (both in bold).


A cross between plants that involves one characteristic?

A monohybrid cross involves crossing two plants that differ in one genetic trait, such as flower color. This allows for the study of how that specific trait is inherited according to Mendel's laws of genetics.


What term describes the parents in monohybrid cross?

The term is: heterozygous parents A monohybrid cross involves a single parent, whereas a dihybrid cross. The law of segregation requires having two or more generations to describe.


What are monohybrid and dihybrid crooses?

Monohybrid cross involves studying one trait (e.g. flower color), whereas dihybrid cross involves studying two traits (e.g. flower color and plant height). In monohybrid crosses, one gene with two alleles is examined, while in dihybrid crosses, two genes with two alleles each are examined.
