Are the offspring of parents who are both homozygous dominant for normal red blood cells in danger of getting sickle's anemia?
No, the offspring of parents who are both homozygous dominant for normal red blood cells are not in danger of developing sickle cell anemia. Since both parents carry only the dominant allele for normal red blood cells, all their offspring will also inherit this dominant trait, resulting in no potential for the recessive sickle cell allele to be expressed. Thus, the children will be homozygous dominant as well.

How do two heterozygous organisms produce on offspring with a recessive phenotype?
There are two forms of Homozygous inheritance: Homozygous Dominant, and Homozygous Recessive. In order for two parents that are Homozygous to produce a Heterozygous offspring, one of them MUST be Homozygous Dominant, and the other MUST be Homozygous Recessive.
The probability of a homozygous recessive offspring resulting from a cross between two homozygous dominant individual is?
It depends on the parents. The parent could have two dominant genes which would give a 0% chance of the offspring being recessive. The only way that the offspring could have a recessive characteristic is if the both parents have one dominant and one recessive gene, a 25% chance. The chance that both parents would pass on the recessive gene (if they have one dominant and recessive gene) is also 25%, because there is a 50% chance for each parent.
What crosses will result in dominant phenotype offspring?
Don't give us the options then!! If one parent had 2 dominant genes then all offspring would have dominant phenotype, the same goes for both parents having dominant genes.
The offspring of two parents that are heterozygous for a given trait have a percent chance of being homozygous for that trait?
There is a 25% chance (1 in 4) that the offspring will be homozygous for the trait. This is because when both parents are heterozygous (Aa), they can pass on either the dominant allele (A) or the recessive allele (a) to their offspring, resulting in a 1 in 4 chance of the offspring receiving the recessive allele from both parents and becoming homozygous (aa) for that trait.
If a homozygous dominant is crossed with a homozygous recessive for a given trait the offspring will be?
The phenotype will show the dominant trait. All dominant traits mask recessive ones; If the genotype is heterozygous (One dominant and one recessive) the organism's phenotype will be dominant.

How can offspring inherit a recessive trait?
An offspring can inherit a recessive trait if both of its parents are homozygous for the dominant allele.
What are the parents if 75 of the offspring have a Dominant gene?
If 75 offspring have a Dominant gene, then the parents must have at least one Dominant gene each. This would make them either Dominant Homozygous (DD) or Heterozygous (Dd) for the Dominant trait.

If the male parent has the genotype AAA and the female parent has the genotype AAA offsprings genotype will be?
The offspring's genotype will be AA. Both parents are homozygous dominant, AA, having only dominant alleles to pass on to their offspring. So each parent can pass on only the dominant allele (A) to its offspring. So the offspring will also be homozygous dominant, AA.

In guinea pigs black hair color is dominant B and white hair color is recessive b What hair color are the guinea pigs offspring?
To determine the hair color of the guinea pigs' offspring, we need to know the genotypes of the parents. If one parent is homozygous dominant (BB) and the other is homozygous recessive (bb), all offspring will be heterozygous (Bb) and will have black hair. If both parents are heterozygous (Bb), approximately 25% of the offspring are expected to be homozygous dominant (BB), 50% heterozygous (Bb), and 25% homozygous recessive (bb), resulting in a 75% chance of black hair and a 25% chance of white hair.
If a homozygous dominant is crossed with a homozygous recessive for a given trait the offspring will be?
The phenotype will show the dominant trait. All dominant traits mask recessive ones; If the genotype is heterozygous (One dominant and one recessive) the organism's phenotype will be dominant.
What phenotype is produce by each of the following genotypes?
Genotype: AA - The phenotype is homozygous dominant, exhibiting the dominant trait. Genotype: Aa - The phenotype is heterozygous, exhibiting the dominant trait. Genotype: aa - The phenotype is homozygous recessive, exhibiting the recessive trait.
If a homozygous dominant parent and a heterozygous parent are crossed what percentage of the offspring are expected to be homozygous dominant?

Are the offspring of parents who are both homozygous dominant for normal red blood cells in danger of getting sickle-cell anamia and why?
No, if both parents are homozygous dominant for normal red blood cells, their offspring will inherit two normal alleles and will not be at risk of developing sickle cell anemia. Sickle cell anemia is a recessive genetic disorder that occurs when an individual inherits two copies of the mutated allele.
