Since the female has blue eyes, she must be homozygous for the blue-eyed allele. Therefore, her genotype would be bb.
A genotype can tell what genes you have in your chromosomes. Genotypes really means what are all your genes and phenotype is what you see. You may have brown eyes. Your genotype might show that you have brown and blue genes for eye color but you see only brown.
It's a genotype. The phenotype is a physical manifestation of the genotype, which means that it's what happens on the outside because an organism has the gene. An example of a phenotype would be if someone had blue eyes or something. The genotype is the two-letter abbreviation thingy.
A phenotype is a physical characteristic of an organism, such as a tall pea plant. An organism's genotype is the specific gene combination that makes up a characteristic using Punnett Square. For example, a tall pea plant might have a genotype of TT or Tt, whereas a small pea plant may have a genotype of tt. (Note: In this case "T" is dominant and "t" is recessive.)
They are related to each other because...Genes and alleles are the traits inside an object, when using a punnet square, we take the genotype out of that object to make experiments.
Since the female has blue eyes, she must be homozygous for the blue-eyed allele. Therefore, her genotype would be bb.
You cant usally get purple eyes, you can either inherrit blue or brown allels, brown being the dominant. Eg, if you have the allels Bb, you will have brown eyes, if you have bb. You have blue eyes, any other colour is a varient off brown such as green.
Genotype refers to an individual's genetic makeup, while phenotype refers to the observable traits or characteristics of an organism resulting from the interaction of its genotype with the environment. For example, in humans, having the genotype for blue eyes (alleles for blue eyes) would result in the phenotype of having blue eyes.
Genotype is the allele combination and phenotype is the physical appearance of the result of the genotype. Genotype for tallness may be: Tt Phenotype example: Brown hair, blue eyes, widow's peak, etc.
Phenotype does not determine genotype. Actually a genotype includes an organisms entire hereditary information. A phenotype is simply the organisms actual observed properties including appearance, development and behavior.
The phenotypes for the genotype "yellow body color is dominant to blue" would be yellow body color for individuals with at least one dominant allele for yellow (Y allele) and blue body color for individuals with two recessive alleles for blue (yy genotype).
A simple way to demonstrate the possibilities of the eye color of the offspring is to divide the potential outcomes into four categories, pairing two chromosomes into each. The outcome is three to one that the child will have brown eyes.
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.
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)
most babies at the start have blue eyes which later change colour. for this couple though, I think it will be blue: Mom's genotype: bb Dad's genotype: bb the only possiblity is blue, however this doesnt account for mutations and this process is always random...
A person's genotype is most clearly referred to in terms of recessive and dominate genetics. Genes basically tell you what you'll look like say for example Lilly is recessive for blue eyes but is dominate for red hair. She may not have blue eyes but she carries the gene for it while Red hair is a dominate feature and she'll most likely pass it on to her children.
A person with brown eyes can carry the blue eye allele because brown is a dominant trait, so they can have both blue and brown alleles in their genotype. However, a person with blue eyes cannot have a brown eye allele because blue eyes are a recessive trait, meaning they must have two copies of the blue allele in their genotype to express the trait.
