A parent that is homozygous for a dominant trait is crossed with a parent that is homozygous for the recessive trait What percentage of the offspring will display the dominant trait?

100% of the offspring will display the dominant trait because the homozygous dominant parent can only pass on the dominant allele. The offspring will inherit one dominant allele from the dominant parent and one recessive allele from the recessive parent, resulting in a heterozygous genotype expressing the dominant trait.


Trait of an organism that can be masked by the dominant form of a trait?

A recessive trait is one that is not expressed when paired with a dominant trait. It may only be visually evident when both copies of the gene carry the recessive form.


What percentage of people in the US have dimples?

Around 20-30% of people in the US are estimated to have dimples. Dimples are considered a dominant genetic trait, so they often run in families.


Operational definition of similarities in twin studies?

Similarities in twin studies typically refer to the extent to which identical twins (who share 100% of their genes) are more similar to each other in terms of a particular trait or characteristic than fraternal twins (who share, on average, 50% of their genes). This difference in similarity between types of twins allows researchers to estimate the heritability of that trait.


What percent of the offspring will most likely have brown fur?

for what animal. it all depends on the dominant gene (allele) and recessive. the genotype of the parents needs to be set up in a Punnett square and with that data you can determine the probability that an animal will have brown fur

What do you call oransim that posssses two dominant or two recessive genes for a single trait?

Homozygous dominant for two dominant genes or homozygous recessive for two recessive genes.


Two dominant or two recessive genes for same trait?

homozygous


What two dominant or two recessive genes for the sames trait?

homozygous


When the alleles present for a trait are the same. the genes are called?

When the alleles present for a trait are the same, the genes are called homozygous. This means that both alleles for a particular gene are identical. Homozygous individuals can have either two dominant alleles (homozygous dominant) or two recessive alleles (homozygous recessive).


What is having the same genes for a trait called?

homozygous or 2 dominant or 2 recessive.


Dominant gene plus Dominant gene?

It would be definite that you have that gene or trait.


Homozygous dominant homozygous recessive?

Homozygous dominant individuals have two identical dominant alleles for a particular gene, resulting in the expression of the dominant trait. Homozygous recessive individuals have two identical recessive alleles, resulting in the expression of the recessive trait.


A living thing that shows a dominant trait may be homozygous dominant or homozygous recessive for the trait true or false?

False because a living thing that shows a dominant trait can not be homozygous recessive. If it is homozygous recessive it will show recessive trait. A living thing that shows dominant trait may be homozygous dominant or hetrozygous.


An organismwith two like genes for a triat is called what for that trait?

An organism with two like genes for a trait is called homozygous for that trait.


What is an allele that produce a trait in the heterozygous condition is?

homozygous


What does it mean that an organism is homozygous dominant for a trait?

Homozygous Dominant for a trait means that an organism has two dominant alleles for that trait. Here's an example: Trait: Widow's Peak Widow's Peak allele: Dominant (D) No widow's peak allele: Reccessive(d) Homozygous Dominant (DD) Homozygous Reccessive (dd) Heterozygous (Dd)


What is the genotype of a child if the mother is homozygous for the dominant trait and the father is homozygous for the recessive trait?

The dominant parent is most likely homozygous dominant, and the recessive parent has only the homozygous genotype. So the dominant parent can pass on only dominant alleles for this trait, and the recessive parent can pass on only recessive alleles for this trait. So all of the offspring would be heterozygous and have the dominant phenotype.
