What else can I help you with?
Is a trait for tallness in pea plants. The trait for shortness is. In a case of simple dominance what is the height of a plant with the genotype?
In pea plants, the trait for tallness is typically dominant, while the trait for shortness is recessive. In a case of simple dominance, a plant with a genotype that includes at least one dominant allele for tallness (e.g., TT or Tt) will be tall. Conversely, only a plant with the homozygous recessive genotype (tt) will be short. Thus, a plant with the genotype TT or Tt will be tall.
What is one genetic trait that masks another form of a trait?
Polydactyly is a genetic trait that can mask the presence of the recessive trait for normal digit number in humans. This means that individuals with polydactyly (extra fingers or toes) can carry the recessive allele for normal digit number without expressing it themselves.
Why wouldn't you see a recessive trait?
You wouldn't see a recessive trait if an individual has one dominant and one recessive allele for that trait. In this case, the dominant allele's phenotype will be expressed, masking the recessive trait. The recessive trait would only be visible if an individual has two copies of the recessive allele.
What does it mean that an organism is homozygous recessive for a trait?
An organism that is homozygous recessive for a trait carries two copies of the recessive allele for that trait. This means that the individual will express the recessive trait because there is no dominant allele to mask its expression.
What is a trait called?
recessive trait

A trait that is hidden?
The trait that is hidden is recessive trait.
Condition of being heterozygous for a recessive trait?
If you are heterozygous this means you carry both a dominant and recessive allele. if you are heterozygous for a recessive trait then you will have a dominant and recessive allele. example: let T represent tall and t represent short. a person with heterozygous for a recessive trait will have 'Tt'.
In a hybrid individual the trait that is covered and not expressed is the what trait?
recessive
What is the difference between a pure tall plant and a hybrid tall plant?
Pure TraitsPure traits can be either recessive or dominant. Pure traits may have two dominant genes or two recessive genes. For example, a pea plant may have two genes for tallness, which is dominant trait in pea plants. This plant is homozygous plant with a pure dominant trait for tallness. All of the offspring from this plant will be tall. A pea plant with two genes for shortness is also a pure organism. However, shortness in pea plants is a recessive trait. This plant is a homozygous plant with a pure recessive trait for height. The offspring from this plant will be short if it pollinates with another plant that has two genes for shortness. If this plant pollinates with a tall pea plant, the tall dominant gene will mask or cover up the recessive gene for shortness. Both plants are homozygous or pure plants; one is a pure dominant pea plant, the other is a pure recessive pea plant.Hybrid TraitOrganisms that have two unlike genes for a certain trait are called hybrid. A pea plant with one recessive gene for shortness and one dominant gene for tallness is a hybrid for that trait. A hybrid is called heterozygous, as it has two different alleles. The offspring from a pure tall pea plant, cross-pollinated with a pure short pea plant, will result in a heterozygous plant for tallness. No organism has all dominant or all recessive genes. An organism may be pure in certain traits and hybrid others. Remember, that a dominant trait in one kind of organism may be a recessive trait in another organism.
What term describes the gene for tallness?
tallness is a high trait now wasn't that a quite ok pun? Mr happycool
Is diabetes dominant or recessive trait?
It is a recessive trait
Is albinism a dominant or recessive trait?
Albinism is a recessive trait.
What a recessive trait?
A recessive trait is a trait that is not dominant, and is not really seen in ones phenotype.
When does a recessive trait dominant over a dominant trait?
A recessive trait cannot be dominant over a dominant trait. Dominant traits are always expressed over recessive traits in heterozygous individuals because they mask the expression of the recessive trait.
WhAT describes the notation Tt for the trait of being tall?
The notation Tt represents a heterozygous genotype for the trait of being tall, where T is the dominant allele for tallness and t is the recessive allele for shortness. This means the individual will exhibit the tall trait because the dominant allele is expressed.
