A rough-coat is recessive for this trait. Thus a rough-coat is heterozygous and a smooth-coat is homozygous.

How can you tell whether a black guinea pig is homozygous or heterzygous when black fur is dominant over white fur?

You could try breeding it with a homozygous recessive partner (hh) Lets assume that you breed the original mystery rabbit with an hh recessive partner, and they have 10 offspring. If the original rabbit is homozygous dominant, it would be HH + hh, which would give all 10 the offspring Hh genotypes, which would give them the dominant hair color. If it was heterozygous dominant, it would be Hh + hh, which would lead to either Hh or hh offspring. This means that in theory, 5 would be dominant colored while the other 5 would not be.


Where do you get a silkie guinea pig?

! We have 2 male Himalayan guinea pigs we got from a breeder in Pittsburgh, PA. I don't know where you live, whether it is close to Pittsburgh (a convenient pick up for you). In any case, the breeder's name is Jodie and I can give her your number if you are interested. We are also driving to Louisville, KY during Thanksgiving and can deliver one/two if you live closer to this city. Jodie has some nice piggies- a lot of personality.

What color horse will you get if you breed a strawberry roan stallion with a blue roan mare?

If either horse is homozygous for roan the foal will be roan, if both are heterozygous there is a 75% chance that the foal will be roan. If by strawberry roan you mean the stallion is a bay roan as opposed to a chestnut roan, we can surmise that the stallion is Rn-A-E- The mare is Rn-aaE- The base color of the foal, without regard to whether it is roan is as follows If the stallion or mare is EE at the extension site they will produce either a bay or black foal...since the stallion is bay he could be AA (only bay foals) or Aa which will produce 50-50 bay or black with this mare. If both the mare and the stallion are Ee at the extension site there is a 25% chance of a chestnut foal.


Can you sell a wasp nest?

Whether or not you could sell a wasp nest would depend on whether you could find a buyer.


How much does an boer goat cost?

It depends on whether you are buying the goat for meat or for breeding. For breeding, prices can vary depending on whether it is a registered stud animal, whether it is a buck or a doe (pregnant or non-pregnant) and its size and age.

I assume that you are looking for the term "homozygous," meaning the two alleles for any given gene are identical.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zygosity#Homozygous


Is AA an homozygous or an heterozygous?

AA could be either homozygous or heterozygous, depending on whether the individual inherited the same allele (A) from both parents (homozygous) or different alleles (Aa) from each parent (heterozygous).

yes. no matter whether they are homozygous dominant or recessive.

How do two heterozygous organisms produce on offspring with a recessive phenotype?

There are two forms of Homozygous inheritance: Homozygous Dominant, and Homozygous Recessive. In order for two parents that are Homozygous to produce a Heterozygous offspring, one of them MUST be Homozygous Dominant, and the other MUST be Homozygous Recessive.

If a homozygous brown mink is mated with a silver-blue mink and 8 offspring are produced how many would be silver-blue?

It depends on which trait is dominant and whether the silver-blue mink is homozygous or heterozygous.


How are bull terriers?

If you are asking how much they cost that would really depend on which country you are living in, as well as whether you buy the dog from a recognised and registred breeder or from a backyard breeder or a puppy mill. The recognised breeder would be more expensive, but would definitely be the better choice.


Is dimple heridity?

Yes. Dimples are dominant. If you have one or two dimples, you have the dominant trait, and your genotype is D-, meaning that we don't know whether you are homozygous dominant or heterozygous for the trait. If you don't have dimples, your genotype is dd, which is homozygous recessive.


How is dominant trait and recessive trait related?

They are related to each other because whether they are dominant or recessive they are both homozygous, meaning the same. They can either be homozygous dominant or homozygous recessive. If they are heterozygous then they are different because it contains one dominant and one recessive allele each. EX: AA=homozygous dominant allele aa=homozygous recessive allele Aa=heterozygous allele


What determines whether an organism is heterozygous or homozygous dominant?

The second allele. If a plant is heterozygous tall, it is Tt. In this case, the dominant trait is tall, T and recessive is short, t. There are two options for it to be dominant, heterozygous (Tt) or homozygous (TT)
