What else can I help you with?
What is a homozygous dominant offspring are?
Offspring that posses two different forms of the same gene. These are called alleles.
If an animal with 2 dominant genes for a trait has offspring with an animal with 2 recessive genes for same trait their offspring can only have what?
Their offspring will have dominant genes. However, if these offspring have offspring with an amimal with recessive genes, the recessive genes will show up.
What are the possible phenotypes of the offspring between a parent who is a heterozygous carrier for cystic fibrosis and a homozygous normal parent?
The chances are one half. You will most likley have 2 children without the gene, and 2 with one gene. Since the normal parent has the dominate allele, the Cystic Fiborisis will not be present.
What are some key differences between horizintal gene transfer gene transfer and vertical descent with mutation?
horizontal gene transfer refers to a transfer of DNA to another cell that is not its offspring. Vertical occurs when 2 organisms have sex with their penis and produce offspring, it receives genetic material from ancestors (parents)
What if your mother doesn't have breast gene mutations in Braca1 and Braca 2 - do you still need gene testing?
MM=regular breast gene while.. mm=mutation so you mother could be Mm and be heterozygous for the gene which means she may not have the defective gene but she is still a carrier which means you and your offspring may have it hope that helps some dont know to much about it but we just did genes and chromosomes in biology class. sorry to hear about the bad news but hopefully if it is genetic your daughter and her offspring will be heterozygous.
What is a homozygous dominant offspring are?
Offspring that posses two different forms of the same gene. These are called alleles.
How many variants of a gene can an offspring have?
One from each parent
If an animal with 2 dominant genes for a trait has offspring with an animal with 2 recessive genes for same trait their offspring can only have what?
Their offspring will have dominant genes. However, if these offspring have offspring with an amimal with recessive genes, the recessive genes will show up.
What will the genotype be of the offspring of the two crossed rose bushes represented in the Punnett Square below if the offspring inherits the alleles represented by the question mark?
The genotype of the offspring will be WwMm, representing a heterozygous combination for both genes (Ww for gene 1 and Mm for gene 2). This means the offspring will inherit one dominant allele (W or M) and one recessive allele (w or m) for each gene.
When does Algrens send out W-2 forms?
All W-2s should be distributed by January 31.
The transfer of gene from parent to their offspring is known as?
1.differentiation 3.immunity 2.heredity 4.evolution
How do you got cystic fibrosis?
Cystic Fibrosis is a genetic disorder, 2 parents have a CF gene, if their offspring inherits that trait they will have Cystic Fibrosis.
What does Mendel's hypothesis of inheritance state?
i dont know all about it but he says that the mother and the father both pass genes to their offspring even though they may not show for example their fathers blue eyes but they show their mothers green eyes. the blue eyes is a recessive gene they will pass to their offspring. so it may skipa generation and come back because the offspring carry that gene. no gene is lost until it has passed 2 generations without a mother or father having it of the offspring have it.
What are the possible phenotypes of the offspring between a parent who is a heterozygous carrier for cystic fibrosis and a homozygous normal parent?
The chances are one half. You will most likley have 2 children without the gene, and 2 with one gene. Since the normal parent has the dominate allele, the Cystic Fiborisis will not be present.
Can 2 people with Huntington's Disease produce an offspring who does not have Huntington's disease?
Unfortunately, no. Huntington's is carried on a dominant gene. One parent HD, one non-HD, you have a 50-50 chance of not inheriting that gene. But two parents that are HD, you will inherit the gene from one parent or the other.
A white mouse whose parents are both produces only brown offspring when mated with a brown mouse The white mouse is most probably what?
White fur color is recessive and brown is dominant. The white mouse has a genotype of bb and the brown mouse has a genotype of BB. All offspring would be heterozygous with a genotype of BB and brown fur.
What are the chances of a person with marfan syndrome passing it to their offspring?
Have a 50% chance of passing it on to there offspring. This is called an autosomal dominant gene. What that means is, considering each human has TWO sets of chromosomes (1 from mom, 1 from dad), it takes only ONE copy of the mutated gene being passed on for the child to inherit the syndrome. Because for the conception of each child there is a chance of passing one or the other gene on, there is a 1 in 2 or 50% chance of giving the child Marfan Syndrome.
