What else can I help you with?
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.
What is the genotype of a pea plant that shows the recessive phenotype?
The genotype of a pea plant that shows a recessive phenotype would be homozygous for the recessive allele. Using letter symbols, it would be represented as aa.
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.
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.
In a heterozygous organism one gene shows itself while the other gene is?
In a heterozygous organism, one gene may be dominant while the other is recessive. The dominant gene expresses its trait, overshadowing the effect of the recessive gene, which does not manifest in the organism's phenotype. This relationship is a fundamental principle of Mendelian genetics, where the dominant allele can mask the presence of the recessive allele in a heterozygous pairing.

What is a genotype with one dominant and one recessive gene?
The genotype of a person with one dominate allele for a gene and one recessive would be expressed as Aa or Yy. You can use any letter you would like except one will be shown as a capital (dominate) and one as a lower case (recessive). This combination is heterozygous for that trait.
Which genotype shows an organism heterozygous for a single genes?
Aa
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.
To determine the genotype of an individual that shows the dominant phenotype you would cross the individual with one that is?
Homozygous recessive.
What conclusion about your genotype is evident if one of your siblings but neither parent shows the recessive trait?
If one of your siblings shows the recessive trait but neither parent does, it suggests that both parents are carriers of the recessive allele. This means that you and your unaffected sibling have a 25% chance of inheriting two copies of the recessive allele, resulting in the recessive trait expression.
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 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.
