What else can I help you with?
What will determine the genotype of an organism?
The alleles that are passed from parents to offspring
When can you accurately determine a person's genotype from their phenotype?
Yes you can accurately determine an organisms genotype by observing it's phenotype, however some phenotypic traits resulting from homozygous or heterozygous combinations of alleles, may make the prediction impossible.
Can you determine the genotype of a person just by looking at him or her?
No, the genotype of a person cannot be determined just by looking at them. Genotype refers to the genetic makeup of an individual, which is not visible. Physical appearance is determined by a combination of genetic and environmental factors.
If you have a plant with yellow seeds which express a dominant phenotype. How would you determine the plant's genotype?
Identify the genotype trait of the seed color is yellow or green?
How would you determine the genotype of an individual if it is heterozygous for a character?
To determine the genotype of an individual who is heterozygous for a trait, you would need to perform a genetic cross with a homozygous recessive individual. By observing the phenotypes of the offspring, you can deduce the genotype of the heterozygous individual. This can help determine if the heterozygous individual is carrying one dominant and one recessive allele.
How can one determine the genotype of parents?
To determine the genotype of parents, one can perform a genetic test to analyze their DNA. This test can reveal the specific genetic variations or alleles that each parent carries, which can then be used to determine their genotype.
What will determine the genotype of an organism?
The alleles that are passed from parents to offspring
Does phenotype determine genotype?
It is a false statement that "phenotype determines genotype". In fact, it is the opposite. A genotype is the genetics or "instructions" that determine the phenotype. The phenotype is the actual appearance, ex: blue eyes, that is created by a given genotype.
How can one determine whether a genotype is heterozygous or homozygous?
One can determine whether a genotype is heterozygous or homozygous by looking at the alleles present. If there are two different alleles for a particular gene, the genotype is heterozygous. If there are two of the same alleles, the genotype is homozygous.
Can you accurately determine an organisms genotype by observing it's phenotype?
No, genotype actually determines phenotype.
What is the important of test cross?
to determine the unknown genotype.
What is a testcross in biology?
a cross between an organism whose genotype for a certain trait is unknown and an organism that is homozygous recessive for that trait so the unknown genotype can be determined from that of the offspring
The mating of an individual of unknown genotype with one that is homozygous recessive in order to determine the unknown genotype is a?
Test Cross.
When can you accurately determine a person's genotype from their phenotype?
Yes you can accurately determine an organisms genotype by observing it's phenotype, however some phenotypic traits resulting from homozygous or heterozygous combinations of alleles, may make the prediction impossible.
Is phenotype determine genotype false?
Yes, this is false. It's genotype that determines phenotype. e.g. If you have the dominant gene for brown eyes and the recessive gene for blue eyes (genotype) you will have brown eyes (phenotype)
How could you determine the plant's genotype with respect to height?
Make a punnett square
Can you determine the genotype of a person just by looking at him or her?
No, the genotype of a person cannot be determined just by looking at them. Genotype refers to the genetic makeup of an individual, which is not visible. Physical appearance is determined by a combination of genetic and environmental factors.
