What environmental factor such as hormone that might affect organism's phenotype?
The type of environmental factor, such as the presence of a hormone, that might affect an organism's phenotype is internal
Having dimples is an example of a phenotype which is?
a example of a gene
What is the visible product of gene and the environments influences?
The old saying is that Phenotype = Genotype + Environmental Factors.
What ultimately determines the phenotype of an individual?
Phenotype is what traits are expressed by the organism. So what ever is the dominant Genotype of the organism will determine the Phenotype. For example a dominant R gene will be the Phenotype in RR and Rr. However, if the organism has two recessive rr then the recessive gene will determine the Phenotype.
A red pigment produced by a bacterial species is an example of what?
Phenotype
Using specific examples, explain the effect of different environmental factors on phenotype of crop plants and animals?
[object Object]
Genes whos effect does not normally occur unless certain enviormental factors are present?
Genes whose effect does not normally occur unless certain environmental factors are present are Conditional mutant. The mutant that has a wild type phenotype under certain environmental conditions and a mutant phenotype under other conditions.
What is pre-disposition?
Genetic Predisposition is a genetic effect which influences the phenotype of an organism but which can be modified by the environmental conditions. Genetic testing is able to identify individuals who are genetically predisposed to certain health problems.
The phenotype of an organism can be influenced by?
Genetic and environmental effects
What is a description for phenotype and example?
The phenotype is a physical characteristic that is expressed by the genes. ----- An example of a phenotype is human blood group.
What environmental factor such as hormone that might affect organism's phenotype?
The type of environmental factor, such as the presence of a hormone, that might affect an organism's phenotype is internal
How do both genes and environment influence traits?
Genes code for the proteins that make up your body and effect your genotype. While environmental effects such as eating habits can effect how ones phenotype (or physical characteristics) looks.
Having dimples is an example of a phenotype which is?
a example of a gene
What are some similarities between phenotype and genotype?
Genotype codes for phenotype. Phenotype is the expressed trait, for example, black fur. The genome that codes for black fur would be BB for example
What is a phenotype-?
A phenotype is the physical trait or feature of an organism that is the effect of a particular genotype. Flower color of snapdragons is one example of a phenotype, and the color is determined by which alleles comprise the genotype. Plants that are homozygous for the flower color alleles are either white or red. Heterozygous snapdragons are pink.
Is industrial melanism is stabilizing selection?
No, that would be more of a directional selection. Phenotypic change from a minor variant phenotype, black in this case, to the majority phenotype due to the environmental selection pressure of pollution on the moth phenotype.
What is phenotypic variation?
Phenotype variation is slight variations in a phenotype that are caused by the expression of an organism's genes or the influence of environmental factors. A species can have several different phenotypes within it.
