Using the terms dominant recessive explain the difference between genotype and phenotype?
No, I think you have your terms confused.The terms "dominant" and "recessive" are applied to alleles of a genotype. A genotype is an expression (using upper- and lower-case letters) that shows what alleles an organism has for a particular locus. The two alleles (in most cases) inherited (one from mother and one from father) can either be dominant or recessive. The recessive allele is not fully expressed in the presence of the dominant allele and is only expressed when there are two recessive alleles. The genotype could be called "recessive" I suppose if the genotype is homozygous recessive. But remember that two recessive alleles as a genotype is only one possibility - in which case you can't say the "genotype is recessive".The phenotype is dependent on the genotype. If present, the dominant alleles (in simple Mendelian genetics) will determine the phenotype - what the organism's trait or characteristic is. The phenotype will never be what is coded by the recessive allele unless the genotype is two recessive alleles.
Why didn't a person with a recessive phenotype have to flip a coin to determine their genotype?
Well, isn't that just a happy little question. You see, if a person shows a recessive phenotype, it means they received two recessive alleles for that trait. So, there's no need to flip a coin because their genotype is already determined. Just like painting a beautiful landscape, genetics can be quite fascinating once you understand the brushstrokes.
What is the genotype any time a recessive trait shows up?
The genotype for a recessive trait to show up is typically homozygous recessive (aa), meaning both alleles are the same and both are recessive.
In a heterozygous genotype the alleles always shows in the phenotype.?
In a heterozygous genotype, where an individual possesses two different alleles for a particular gene, the phenotype can be influenced by the dominance relationship between the alleles. Typically, the dominant allele will mask the expression of the recessive allele, resulting in the phenotype reflecting only the dominant trait. However, in some cases, such as incomplete dominance or codominance, both alleles can contribute to the phenotype. Therefore, it is not accurate to say that both alleles always show in the phenotype.
What does a punett square show?
The chance of a particular trait being inherited. For each trait there are several alleles, some are dominant and others recessive, for example brown eyes are dominant over blue. The recessive phenotype can only have a genotype with both recessive alleles eg. bb The dominant phenotype can have a genotype with both dominant alleles eg. BB or one of each eg. Bb A punnet square shows the likelihood of a phenotype being inherited from given genotypes, alleles etc... BB and Bb makes BB BB Bb Bb All offspring will have the dominant phenotype (BB or Bb) eg. brown eyes Bb and Bb makes BB Bb Bb bb One in four of the offspring will have the recessive phenotype (bb) eg. blue eyes
To determine the genotype of an individual that shows the dominant phenotype you would cross the individual with one that is?
Homozygous recessive.

To determine the genotype of an individual that shows the dominant phenotype you would cross that individual with one that is?
To determine the genotype of an individual that shows the dominant phenotype you would cross that individual with one that is homozygous recessive. A monohybrid cross of two individuals that are heterozygous for a trait exhibiting complete dominance would probably result in a phenotype ratio is 3 dominant 1 recessive.
What is the phenotype ratio of GgTT X ggTt?
The phenotype ratio of GgTT X ggTt is 1:1. This cross involves genes segregating independently, leading to one genotype (GgTt) that shows the dominant phenotype and one genotype (ggTT) that shows the recessive phenotype.

What is an individual with genotype AAA described as?
An Aa genotype can result in the same phenotype as either an AA or AA genotype, if one of the alleles acts in a dominant fashion. If the A allele is dominant over the a allele, then the phenotype of a heterozygous (Aa) individual will be the same as the phenotype of a homozygous dominant (AA) individual.
When is a recessive allel expressed in offspring?
A recessive phenotype is expressed in an offspring that has a homozygous recessive genotype for that trait.
What shows the physical trait resulting from a genotype?
A phenotype shows the physical trait resulting from a genotype. Phenotypes are the observable characteristics of an organism, such as its color, size, or behavior, that are determined by the interaction between the genetic makeup (genotype) and environmental factors.
What is the genotype any time a recessive trait shows up?
The genotype for a recessive trait to show up is typically homozygous recessive (aa), meaning both alleles are the same and both are recessive.

Which of the following statements about a gene that shows maternal effect inheritance is true?
A gene that shows maternal effect inheritance is one where the phenotype of the offspring is determined by the genotype of the mother, rather than the offspring's own genotype. This means that even if the offspring carries a certain genetic variant, it will only display the phenotype associated with the mother's genotype.
When you see a phenotype such as Tt why doesn't the recessive trait show?
Actually, Tt is the way the genotype is written. The phenotype is what one (generally) sees externally.As T is dominant to t (that's why it's written as a Capital letter), it is the manifestation of T that shows up in the phenotype; assuming no co-dominance or incomplete dominance is also involved.
