What else can I help you with?
Individual is said to be what if it has two copies of the same factor for a given trait?
The individual is said to be homozygous for that trait. This means that both copies of the gene for that trait are identical.
What is a trait created by a gene that is seen outside the physical organism?
It is called the phenotype or phenotypic trait.
What is arecessive trait?
A recessive trait is a genetic trait that is only expressed when an individual carries two copies of the gene responsible for that trait. It is masked by the presence of a dominant trait when an individual carries one copy of each type of gene.
If an individual has the copies of a trait the same what is it called?
If an individual has two identical copies of a trait, it is called homozygous for that trait. This means that both copies of the gene are the same, whether they are dominant or recessive.
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.
In a hybrid individual the trait that is covered and not expressed is the what trait?
recessive
What type of trait prevents the other type from being seen?
A recessive trait. When a recessive allele is with a dominant allele, only the dominanate trait can be seen.
Is the genotype of the individual homozygous or heterozygous for the trait in question?
The genotype of the individual is homozygous for the trait in question.
What a recessive trait?
A recessive trait is a trait that is not dominant, and is not really seen in ones phenotype.
When will a recessive trait show its effect?
A recessive trait will be expressed when there is no dominant allele in the genotype for that trait. In a Mendelian trait, where one gene with one dominant and one recessive allele governs a trait, a recessive trait will be expressed when the individual's genotype for that trait is homozygous recessive, meaning that both of the individual's alleles for that trait are recessive.
Individual is said to be what if it has two copies of the same factor for a given trait?
The individual is said to be homozygous for that trait. This means that both copies of the gene for that trait are identical.
What is a trait created by a gene that is seen outside the physical organism?
It is called the phenotype or phenotypic trait.
What is the significance of a single long white hair on the back of an individual?
A single long white hair on the back of an individual can symbolize wisdom, experience, or aging. It may also be seen as a unique trait that sets the individual apart from others.
What is arecessive trait?
A recessive trait is a genetic trait that is only expressed when an individual carries two copies of the gene responsible for that trait. It is masked by the presence of a dominant trait when an individual carries one copy of each type of gene.
What is an individual who has inherited a factor for a trait?
An individual who has inherited a factor for a trait is a carrier of that trait. They may or may not exhibit the trait themselves, as it depends on whether the inherited factor is dominant or recessive.
What it a trait?
A trait is something that sets apart an individual from others of the same kind.
An individual heterozygous for a trait and an individual homozygous recessive for the trait are crossed and produce many offspring?
The offspring has a 50% chance of the dominate trait (while being heteroygous) and a 50% chance of having the recessive trait ( homozygous recessive).
