Deoxyribonucleic acid otherwise known as DNA. traits are controlled by commonalities in DNA structure between two separate sequences
Acquired Trait
It is called the phenotype or phenotypic trait.
A genetic trait.
two or more genes
Heterozygous
An organism can have/carry a gene but without espressing this gene.
The trait of an organism is controlled by its genes, which are segments of DNA that provide instructions for building and maintaining the organism. Genes influence various traits such as physical appearance, behavior, and susceptibility to diseases. Environmental factors can also play a role in the expression of traits.
If the the trait is controlled by only one allele and the allele is completely dominant then once inherited the offspring with exhibit that phenotype
An organism with two like alleles for a trait is homozygous for that trait.
an organism that has two different alleles for a trait is heterozygous
An organism that has two different alleles for a given trait is referred to as heterozygous for that trait. For example, if one allele codes for a dominant trait and the other for a recessive trait, the dominant trait will typically be expressed in the organism's phenotype. This genetic variation can contribute to diversity within a population and may influence the organism's adaptability to its environment.
Acquired Trait
A trait controlled by four alleles is said to have multiple alleles.
a trait controlled by many genes
A single-gene trait is a phenotypic trait controlled by two homologous alleles.
It is called the phenotype or phenotypic trait.
This could be called a trait (inheritance).
