How many alleles for 1 trait do you get from your mother?

You get one allele for 1 trait from your mother. Alleles are alternative forms of a gene, and you inherit one allele for each trait from each parent.


For each trait there are allele possibilities?

Yes, that is correct. Each trait is controlled by genes, and genes exist in different forms called alleles. For any given trait, an individual can have two alleles—one inherited from their mother and one from their father. These alleles can have different variations, resulting in different expression of the trait.


Example of a sexually influenced trait?

One example of a sexually influenced trait in humans would be haemophilia. The gene responsible for haemophilia is located on the X chromosome, and if a man receives a gene from his mother (men's X chromosomes always come from their mother) that is positive for this trait, he will exhibit haemophilia. Women must have two X chromosomes that are positive for haemophilia in order to exhibit the trait, because it is a recessive gene.


If a human baby boy inherits a recessive allele from his mother in which circumstance would he most likely show the trait coded for by the recessive allele?

A human baby boy would most likely show the trait coded for by a recessive allele if he inherits the same recessive allele from his father as well. Since males have one X and one Y chromosome, the trait would manifest if the recessive allele is on the X chromosome and there is no dominant allele present from the Y chromosome. If the mother is a carrier (heterozygous) or expresses the trait (homozygous recessive), the boy could inherit the recessive allele and exhibit the trait.


Why does a puppy always have two alleles for every trait?

Because of homologous pairs of chromosomes. One chromosome from the puppies mother and one from the father make up the 78 chromosomes of dogs. One allele on the mom chromosome and one on the dad chromosome, even if there are more than two alleles for the trait only two will be represented in the genome.

What is your sister?

Your sister is your female relative who shares the same mother and father as you do. If she shares only one parent, she is your half sister.


When a trait has more then two alleles and how is that trait inherited?

Even though there are more than two alleles, an individual can inherit only two, one from the mother and one from the father.

How can you explain the inheritance of sex-linked traits?

Sex- linked traits are those where the genes are found on the X and Y chromosomes. Colorblindness and male pattern baldness are the most well-known sex-link traits. Women have two X chromosomes. Men have one X and one Y, but the Y chromosome has fewer genes than the X. These differences help account for different patterns of inheritance than non-sex-linked traits.


How many genes does an offspring receive from each parent for a trait?

An offspring typically receives one copy of a gene for a trait from each parent, resulting in two copies of the gene in total. This is known as Mendelian inheritance, where an offspring inherits one allele from the mother and one allele from the father for a specific trait.


A color blind son inherited this trait from?

his mother because color blindness is a sex-linked trait that is found on the X chromosome, which is inherited from the mother, as opposed to the Y chromosome, which is inherited from the father. So a male can only inherit the gene for color blindness from his mom.

What if your eyes are blue but one has some brown in it what does that mean?

that you must have had one dominant brown trait from either your mother or father. but all of your other traits are recessive blue.
