Suppose that the alleles for blue eyes in cats is recessive and your cat has blue eyes. what statement can you make about your cat's genotype for eye color?

A+ It is probably homozygous for the recessive allele.


Which gender can have white eyes if the female parent is homozygous dominant for red eyes and if the male parent has white eyes?

The offspring will have red eyes because the mother is homozygous dominant for red eye color. White eye color is a recessive trait and can only be expressed when both parents pass on the white allele. Since the father has white eyes, the male offspring will inherit the white eye color.


Do all Himalayan guinea pigs have red eyes As i think the breed are extremely cute but am not to keen on the red eyes.?

The gene that controls the Himalayan trait in guinea pigs is recessive, similar to albinism. If you breed a Himalayan guinea pig to any other color of pig, none of the progeny will have the Himalayan phenotype (look Himalayan). To get a Himalayan you must breed to another Himalayan. Long story short; all Himalayans have red eyes.


Why do ants have red eyes?

Explain why Morgan did not find white-eyed female melanogaster in the f generation when he crossed white-eyed males with red-eyes females?

Red eyed (Wild) is dominant over the recessive mutated white eye trait.White eyes is a sex-linked trait. If you cross a white eyed male with a homozygous (wild) red eyed female, all the females will be red eyed carriers and the males will be red eyed also.

What is the significance of the sepia eyes trait in the Drosophila genotype and how does it impact the overall characteristics of the organism?

The sepia eyes trait in the Drosophila genotype is significant because it affects the color of the fly's eyes, giving them a brownish hue instead of the typical red. This trait is caused by a mutation in a specific gene that controls eye pigmentation. The sepia eyes trait does not have a major impact on the overall characteristics or behavior of the organism, as it is primarily a cosmetic difference.

Is sepia eyes sex linked in fruit flies?

Yes, sepia eyes in fruit flies is linked to the X chromosome and is a sex-linked trait. The gene responsible for sepia eye color is located on the X chromosome, which results in a different inheritance pattern compared to genes located on autosomes.

Is albinism a dominat or reccesive trait?

Albinism is a recessive trait which will result in a lack of pigmentation in the skin eyes and hair. It occurs about 1 in every 17,000 people in the U.S.


Is green eye color a recessive trait?

Yes, green eye color is typically considered a rare trait that is usually inherited as a recessive genetic trait. Individuals with green eyes often have two copies of the recessive allele for eye color.


How do you get brown eyes from blue eyed parents?

if you go back to the beginning of your family tree, maybe a family member had brown eyes brown eyes is a dominate trait and blue eyes is a recessive trait, even tho they may both show the recessive trait they may both poses the brown eyes dominate trait and pass it onto you and you will show it. as the name implies you are more likely to show the dominate trait (75% chance dominate and 255 chance recessive). interestingly enough this means that you do have the recessive blue eye trait but you do not show it.
