How many of the offspring would be short?

It depends on the genetics of the parents. If both parents carry a short gene, then all the offspring would have a chance of being short. If only one parent carries the short gene, then approximately half of the offspring would be short.


In flies long wings are a dominant trait and short wings are a recessive trait. If a heterozygous long-winged fly is crossed with a short-winged fly what is the LIKELIHOOD that the offspring will cont?

When a heterozygous long-winged fly (LW) is crossed with a short-winged fly (ww), the possible genotypes of the offspring are LW and ww. This results in a 50% chance of producing long-winged offspring (LW) and a 50% chance of producing short-winged offspring (ww). Therefore, there is a 50% likelihood that the offspring will have long wings.


What is the phenotypic ratio of the offspring when a tall man marries a short woman?

The phenotypic ratio of the offspring when a tall man marries a short woman is 3:1 (tall/short). The phenotypic ratio is figured by using the punnet square with the dominant allele for tall and the recessive allele for the short gene.


How do we get 25 percent of our grandparents genes?

Theoretically speaking, we get 50 percent of our genes from our father and 50 percent of our genes from our mother. Our parents themselves get genes in the same proportion. So basically, you get 25 percent genes from each grandparent because your parent has 50 percent genes from each grandparent and then you get 50 percent of that 50 percent, that is, 25 percent.


When Mendel crossed short tt pea plants with short pea plants the offspring were?

When Mendel crossed short tt pea plants (homozygous recessive) with short pea plants that were heterozygous for height (Tt), the offspring would display a phenotypic ratio of 1 short (tt) to 1 tall (Tt). This is because the short plants (tt) can only contribute recessive alleles, while the heterozygous plants (Tt) can contribute either a dominant (T) or a recessive (t) allele. Therefore, half of the offspring would be tall and half would be short.

What percent of the offspring will be short round?

Perform the following cross TTRR x ttrr What percent of the offspring will be short round?

All offspring will be short and round because the TtRr parent is heterozygous at both loci. This means all offspring will inherit one dominant allele for each trait (T and R), resulting in a short and round phenotype.

If the short haired cat in the P generation were purebred what would you expect the offspring to look like?

Yes it is purebred. Because it had to sex to come in life. thanks to everyone.

What percent of offspring will inherit a recessive allele from a homozygous recessive parent?

If one parent is homozygous recessive for a trait, all of their offspring will inherit one copy of the recessive allele. Therefore, 100% of the offspring will inherit the recessive allele from a homozygous recessive parent.


In a certain cat long whiskers (W) are dominant and short whiskers (w) are recessive. Two cats have genotypes Ww and ww. If they have an offspring with short whiskers what is the genotype of their off?

ww
