What must happen before meiosis can begin

DNA doubles and produces sister chromatids before meiosis begins.

the chromosomes must replicate

What is the difference between a homozygous trait and a heterozygous trait and can you please provide an example for each

a homozygous trait is when an offspring has either both dominant genes or both recessive genes from its parents. a heterozygous trait is when an offspring has both dominant and recessive genes. for example: a long-tailed cat is dominant and a short-tailed cat is recessive. the long-tailed cat (homozygous dominant) had offsprings with the short-tailed cat (homozygous recessive). by doing the punnett square, 100% of their offspring will be heterozygous.

Is color blindness a dominant or a recessive trait

Color blindness is a recessive sex linked trait.

Why do more people have attached rather than unattached earlobes

Cause attached earlobes are the dominant trait. Unattached earlobes are reccessive.

In Mendel's experiment why did wrinkled seeds show up in the F2 generation even though they were not present in the F1 generation

Wrinkled seeds are recessive

The F1generation carried recessive alleles.

Why did Mendel use purebread pea plants

To validate the results of his experiment.

What would most likely stopped Mendel from finding a pattern is his results

if seed color and shape were located on the same chromosome

A mother has one allele for color blindness and one Allele or normal vision what is the probability that her Gamete Will have the Allele for the color blindness

50%

A plant can have green (G) or yellow (g) leaves. It can also have a long (K) or short (k) stem. A scientist is preparing a Punnett square for a dihybrid cross of a plant with a genotype GGKk. What pos

Gk, gk

In a certain plant yellow leaves are dominant (Y) and red leaves are recessive (y). A plant with genotype Yy and a plant with YY are crossed. If they have four offspring how many would you predict wou

the answer is one!! (1) apex

Which best describes probability

the likelihood that something will happen
