Alleles passed from parent to child on a sex chromosome is called what?
These alleles are called sex-linked alleles or traits.
What is a condition in which both alleles for a gene are fully expressed?
both the alleles are expressed when the alleles are co-dominent, which means neither is dominant or recessive and cannot be masked. SOme examples are blood type. Type AB blood type is one co-dominent allele for a (Ia) and one for b (Ib).
Alternative versions of genes are called?
alternative forms of a gene are called as alleles..
Genetic trait that is expressed when it's allele is homozygous or heterozygous?
The complete expression of both alleles (i.e. for example, a black and white cow), is known as co-dominance, when each allele is equally dominant over the other. However, both alleles may be expressed in the form of an intermediate as well (i.e. white and red alleles forming a pink intermediate for flower petals), known as incomplete dominance, when neither allele is completely dominant over the other.
What is the difference between dominant and recessive alleles for specific traits?
Dominant is an allele that will always be expressed in a heterozygous individual. Recessive on other hand are traits that will only be expressed in a homozygous condition. Organisms receive one allele for each trait from each parent, thus you have two alleles for each trait.
What is the phenotype of an individual - XHY?
Genes that come together with different alleles are called _____.
What do geneticists call alleles that are both expressed in the phenotype when they are together?
Genetic makeup formed from both inherited alleles together is called a genotype. Homozygous alleles would be a pair of identical alleles for a single trait. Heterozygous is different alleles for a single trait.
Genes that come together with different alleles are called?
heterozygous
Why you called co-dominance when a person possess two different alleles at the same locus and both alleles are expressed in the phenotype?
Both of the parent's alleles are either dominant or recessive.
What are both inherited alleles called?
Genetic makeup formed from both inherited alleles together is called a genotype. Homozygous alleles would be a pair of identical alleles for a single trait. Heterozygous is different alleles for a single trait.
What Dominant alleles are both fully expressed in a phenotype?
The form of inheritance in which two (different) alleles are both expressed is called codominance. An example of codominance is the orange and black coat of a type of calico cat called a tortoiseshell. Both the orange allele and the black allele for coat color are expressed.
What type of allele dominance occurs when both the alleles are active and expressed?
When both the alleles are expressed, it is called co-dominance or mixed dominance.
What are inactive alleles?
Inactive alleles (usually called recessive) are not fully expressed in the phenotype of the organism.
What is an interaction between alleles in which both alleles are expressed more or less equally or a blending occurs called?
Those would be called co-dominant alleles.
Different versions of the same gene are called?
Different versions of the same gene are called
In humans the alleles for hemophilia h is recessive. Which phenotype is displayed in an individual with the genotype XhY?
Genes that come together with different alleles are called _____.
What is it called when both alleles are expressed in an offspring?
This is called Codominance because both genes are expressed in an offspring.
