Why do the recessive genes do not disappear from the population?
Recessive genes can persist in a population because they can be carried in individuals without being expressed. These hidden recessive genes can be passed down through generations, only showing up if inherited from both parents. Additionally, genetic diversity can help maintain recessive genes in a population even if they are not expressed in every generation.
What genes does a homozygous short pea plant always have?
Recessive genes
What includes an organism's unseen recessive genes?
An organism's unseen recessive genes are included in its genotype, which is the complete set of genetic information inherited from its parents. While these recessive alleles may not be expressed in the organism's phenotype (the observable traits), they can still be passed to offspring. If an organism carries two copies of a recessive allele, or one copy alongside a dominant allele that does not mask it, the trait can become visible in subsequent generations. Thus, recessive genes play a crucial role in inheritance and genetic variation.
If an animal with 2 dominant genes for a trait has offspring with an animal with 2 recessive genes for same trait their offspring can only have what?
Their offspring will have dominant genes. However, if these offspring have offspring with an amimal with recessive genes, the recessive genes will show up.
Are dominante and recessive genes responsibile for how baby looks?
Yes, dominant and recessive genes play a role in determining physical traits in offspring. Dominant genes are more likely to be expressed in the phenotype, while recessive genes are typically masked unless an individual inherits two copies of the recessive allele. This interplay between dominant and recessive genes contributes to the variety of physical characteristics seen in offspring.
Do recessive traits have the potential to skip generations?
Yes, recessive traits can skip generations because they can be carried in the genes of individuals without being expressed in their physical characteristics.
What happens to tomatoes with recessive genes?
That will depend on what traits those genes control.
A disease caused by mutated recessive genes that can be passed along for generations with no expression is?
cystic fibrosis

What did Gregor Mendel study?
He studied dominant and recessive genes. He studied pea plants and the traits that they obtained from previous generations.
Do dominant genes affect recessive genes?
The dominant genes take over, and then the recessive genes hide away
Which genes are dominant and which are recessive?
Dominant genes are always expressed in preference to recessive genes in cased where both genes are present.

What do you call oransim that posssses two dominant or two recessive genes for a single trait?
Homozygous dominant for two dominant genes or homozygous recessive for two recessive genes.
Can recessive genes become dominant?
Recessive genes do not become dominant. Dominant genes mask the expression of recessive genes in the presence of both alleles. However, if a recessive gene is selected for over time through breeding, it can become more prevalent in a population.
According to mendel what genes disappear in f1 pea plants?
No genes disappear in the F1 generation. Each of the F1 plants was heterozygous, having both a dominant and recessive alleles. The recessive phenotype disappears in the F1 generation because all members of that generation carry a dominant allele. In the F2 generation, the recessive phenotype will reappear.
