How are dominant and recessive traits represented?
Autosomal recessive alleles ( both males and females) and X-linked alleles in females always express themselves in homozygous condition. On other hand, X -chromosome linked recessive allele express singly in males.
Why is selective breeding a slow process?
because when you take a gene from another species they don't always turn out the way you whant them to for example; if you take a gene from a blue plant and put it into a red plant you might get a verious of colour because somewhere in the family tree there would be a different colour of parents.
What are paired fins?
Paired fins are fins found in pairs on both sides of a fish's body. These fins play a crucial role in stability, maneuvering, and steering. Examples of paired fins include pectoral fins and pelvic fins.
Does a hagfish have paired fins?
Of course it does.
What animals have paired appendages column?
Goat
When a trait is not expressed when paired with a dominant allele is the definiton of?
The trait that is not expressed when paired with a dominant allele is known as a recessive trait. It is masked by the dominant trait in individuals carrying both alleles.
An allele is dominant in a heterozygote when it is?
expressed in the phenotype even when paired with a different allele.
What is an allele that always shows up in an organism's phenotype called - an allele that masks the other allele?
An allele that always shows up in an organism's phenotype and masks the expression of another allele is called dominant. Dominant alleles are always expressed, even when paired with a recessive allele.
A trait that is not expressed when paired with a dominant allele is?
recessive (sraight out of my biology lesson!)
What is the allele that will always show physically?
The dominant allele will always show physically in an individual, while the recessive allele will only be expressed if paired with another recessive allele.
Does a recessive allele need another recessive allele to be expressed?
Yes, a recessive allele needs to be paired with another recessive allele in order to be expressed. This is because recessive alleles are only expressed when an individual has two copies of the recessive allele, one from each parent. If an individual has one dominant allele and one recessive allele for a particular trait, the dominant allele will be expressed.
What gene is masked if it is paired with a dominant gene?
The different forms of a gene are called alleles. In Mendelian genetics, a gene has a dominant allele and a recessive allele. The dominant allele masks the recessive allele if present. So there are two possible dominant genotypes: homozygous dominant, in which both dominant alleles are present; and heterozygous, in which one allele is dominant and the other allele is recessive. The only way to express a recessive trait is to have the homozygous recessive genotype.
What gene won't display its trait in the prescience of a dominate trait?
A recessive gene will not display its trait in the presence of a dominant trait. A recessive gene only expresses its trait when paired with another copy of the same recessive gene.
Genes that are only seen when paired with a recessive gene?
if u have a recessive gene with a recessive gene then u can see the recessive gene but if you have a dominant gene with a recessive gene you can only see the dominant gene hope that helps:)
What is a reccesive gene?
A recessive gene is a gene that is only expressed if an individual has two copies of it, one inherited from each parent. In the presence of another dominant gene, the recessive gene's trait is not expressed.
What do dominant and recessive alleles have in common?
Alleles are different types of a gene. Each gene controls a characteristic and they is usually a recessive allele and a dominant one. The main similarity is that they both control a certain characteristic!
Is homologous dominant?
In genetics, alleles can be classified as either dominant or recessive. The term "homologous" refers to the pairing of chromosomes in meiosis. Whether an allele is dominant or recessive depends on its effect on the phenotype when paired with another allele. Homologous chromosomes do not determine the dominance of an allele.
