An organism that has two different alleles for a given trait is referred to as heterozygous for that trait. For example, if one allele codes for a dominant trait and the other for a recessive trait, the dominant trait will typically be expressed in the organism's phenotype. This genetic variation can contribute to diversity within a population and may influence the organism's adaptability to its environment.
What else can I help you with?
What are hetrozgous?
What is heterozygous? Your inherited characteristics are determined by your genes. Zygosity refers to the similarity of genes for a trait in an organism. If both genes are different, the organism is heterozygous (hetero = different) for that trait. If both genes are the same, the organism is homozyous (homo = same).
What is an organism with two different genes for a specific trait?
Heterozygous.
What organism with two unlike genes of a trait is called?
A heterozygous has 2 different alleles for a trait.
What is a trait that is not expressed when an organism receives genes for 2 different forms of a trait?
A trait that is not expressed when another is present is referred to as a recessive trait.
What is an organism with two genes for a trait called?
An organism with two like alleles for a trait is homozygous for that trait.
What can affect an organism trait?
genes and the environment
What is a trait that is not expressed from a living thing thing that has received genes for two different forms of that trait?
Incomplete dominance is a trait that can result when an organism receives genes for two different forms of the same trait. In this case, neither form of the trait is fully expressed, leading to a blending of the two forms.
What is an organism that has genes that are alike for a particular trait called?
An organism that has genes that are alike for a particular trait is called homozygous for that trait. This means that it has two identical alleles for that specific gene.
What is the relationship between a non-allelic gene and the expression of a specific trait in an organism?
Non-allelic genes are genes located on different chromosomes that do not directly influence each other. They can affect the expression of a specific trait in an organism through independent pathways, leading to a combination of different genetic factors influencing the trait.
An organismwith two like genes for a triat is called what for that trait?
An organism with two like genes for a trait is called homozygous for that trait.
If two genes in a gene pair are for the same trait what will that trait be?
The question should be "If two alleles for a gene are the same, what phenotype will the organism have?" Answer: If the two alleles are for the dominant phenotype, the organism will exhibit the dominant phenotype. If the two alleles are for the recessive phenotype, the organism will have the recessive phenotype.
What is a characteristic that an organism can pass on to an offspring through its genes?
trait
