What is the only way a recessive trait will be expressed?

Breed/use only organisms showing the recessive trait for starters. If one of the parents or progenitor lines show the dominant trait then don't use their offspring. If the offspring of one of the oranisims show the dominant trait then remove both the parent of this offspring and this offspring showing the dominant trait from your program.


How do you figure out if a trait is dominant or recessive without making an experiment?

You can determine if a trait is dominant or recessive by observing the inheritance pattern in a family. If individuals with the trait only have one copy of the allele and can pass it on to their offspring, the trait is likely dominant. If individuals need to have two copies of the allele to express the trait, it is likely recessive.


What did Mendel use to predict what percent of offspring would show a popular trait?

probability based on principle of dominance and independent assortment of gametes


How would you label the dominant trait?

You would use a capital letter. And for the recessive a lower case. For example. Brown hair is dominant over blonde. B for Brown (the dominant) And b for Blonde (the recessive)


If Gregor Mendel didn't use plants that were not true breeding then would he have discovered dominant and recessive traits?

If Gregor Mendel did not use plants that were not true breeding, he would not have discovered heredity because there would not be any evidence that traits passed on to the next generation and that the offspring retained the traits of the parents.

Why is it not necessary when the dominant and recessive traits are known to use the term homozygous when referring to the genotype of an individual that has a recessive phenotype?

When the dominant and recessive traits are known, using the term "homozygous" for the recessive phenotype is redundant because it implies that both alleles are the same (rr for a recessive phenotype). It is clear that the individual is homozygous for the recessive allele by observing their phenotype.

What is the letter form in dominant and recessive trait?

It depends on what your trait is. Let's say that your trait was tongue roller. Rolling your tongue is dominant over non-tongue rollers so we would use R for Rolling your tongue. For the recessive trait, non-tongue roller, we use the same letter as the dominant trait except it is lowercase. So non-tongue roller would be r.
