When you say homozygous, you're talking about genes. It's almost impossible, or not known, if a human has had genes of all homozygousity.

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.


If 240 plant offspring were produced from crossing two heterozygous plants how many would be homozygous?

Out of the 240 offspring, approximately 60 would be homozygous (25% of 240). This is because when two heterozygous plants are crossed (Aa x Aa), the Punnett square shows that 25% of the offspring will be homozygous dominant (AA), 50% will be heterozygous (Aa), and 25% will be homozygous recessive (aa).


What is the probabilty that the offspring of a homozygous domiant idiviual and a homozygous recessive indiviual will exbhit the domaint phenotype?

If one parent is homozygous dominant (AA) and the other parent is homozygous recessive (aa), all offspring will inherit one dominant allele and display the dominant phenotype. Therefore, the probability of their offspring exhibiting the dominant phenotype is 100%.


To determine if a particular plant is homozygous or heterozygous you would have to test cross with a what?

To determine if a plant is homozygous or heterozygous, you would need to test cross it with a homozygous recessive plant. If the offspring show the recessive trait, the original plant is heterozygous; if all offspring show the dominant trait, the original plant is homozygous.


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.

What is the probability that offspring of a cross between a homozygous recessive parent and a hetezyguous parent will be homozygous recessive?

In a cross between a homozygous recessive parent (AA) and a heterozygous parent (Aa), the possible genotypes of the offspring are 50% homozygous recessive (AA) and 50% heterozygous (Aa). Therefore, the probability that an offspring will be homozygous recessive is 50%.


If a test cross between a homozygous recessive and heterozygous allele will yield what percent of offspring as homozygous recessive?

A test cross between a homozygous recessive and a heterozygous individual will yield 50% of offspring as homozygous recessive. This is because all the offspring will inherit one recessive allele from the homozygous recessive parent.


If homozygous BB is crossed with homozygous bb what will the offspring have-?

An individual heterozygous for a trait and an individual homozygous recessive for the trait are crossed and produce many offspring?

The offspring has a 50% chance of the dominate trait (while being heteroygous) and a 50% chance of having the recessive trait ( homozygous recessive).


What percentage of the possible types of offspring were homozygous?

25%


What is the percentage of offspring that will exhibit the dominant trait from A crossing of A homozygous dominant and homozygous recessive individual?

The homozygous dominant individual can only pass on the dominant allele and the homozygous recessive individual can only pass on the recessive allele, therefore all offspring will be heterozygous and have the dominant phenotype.


Can a normal homozygous individual produce offspring with sickle-cell anemia?

A normal homozygous individual can't produce offspring with sickle cell anemia. Both parents must carry the trait to have an offspring with the illness.


What crosses will only produce heterozygous offspring?

A cross between two individuals that are homozygous for different alleles will only produce heterozygous offspring. This is because each parent can only donate one type of allele, resulting in all offspring being heterozygous for that particular gene.
