You're looking at a gene which contains 2 alleles (meaning variations of that gene). Let's call it "A."
Remember that you get 2 copies of EACH gene (one from mom, one from dad).
A cross between two individuals that are homozygous for different alleles will only produce heterozygous offspring. This is because each parent can only donate one type of allele, resulting in all offspring being heterozygous for that particular gene.
The Punnett square for crossing two heterozygous dogs (Bb x Bb) would result in a 25% chance of offspring with homozygous dominant black fur (BB), a 50% chance of offspring with heterozygous black fur (Bb), and a 25% chance of offspring with homozygous recessive brown fur (bb).
Incomplete dominance refers to a genetic phenomenon in which the heterozygous phenotype is a blend of the two homozygous phenotypes. This means that neither allele is completely dominant over the other, resulting in a unique intermediate phenotype in heterozygous individuals.
If both parents are black-haired guinea pigs and the black coat color is dominant, they could either be homozygous (BB) or heterozygous (Bb) for the black coat gene. If both are heterozygous (Bb), the offspring ratio would typically be 25% homozygous black (BB), 50% heterozygous black (Bb), and 25% brown (bb). Therefore, among the 20 offspring, we would expect around 15 to be black (BB or Bb) and about 5 to be brown (bb) if the parents are Bb. If both parents are homozygous (BB), all offspring would be black.
genotype means genetic make up. it can give the information about the parents wether they were homozygous or heterzygousAnswer (Improved)A genotypic ratio is the proportion of genotypes found in individuals after a cross. For example, consider a cross between two heterozygous individuals for trait A: Aa X AaThe result is a 1:2:1 ratio for the genotypes AA, Aa, and AA respectively. Put another way, if the parents had 100 offspring, 25 would be expected to have the genotype AA, 50 the genotype Aa and 25 the genotype AA.This is hard Good Luck
Homozygous refers to having two identical alleles for a trait, while heterozygous refers to having two different alleles for a trait. In other words, homozygous individuals have either two dominant or two recessive alleles, while heterozygous individuals have one dominant and one recessive allele.
Homozygous refers to having two identical alleles for a particular gene, while heterozygous means having two different alleles for the same gene. Homozygous individuals can be either homozygous dominant (two dominant alleles) or homozygous recessive (two recessive alleles), while heterozygous individuals have one dominant and one recessive allele.
"Heterozygous" and "homozygous" are terms that refer to alleles, which, in genetics determine what trait, from which parent, will appear in the offspring. Alleles can be either Dominant or Recessive. Every organism has two alleles, which can both be dominant, both recessive, or one of each.So,If an organism heterozygous, it has one recessive and one dominant allele.If an organism is homozygous then both of its alleles are the same; you need to specify if they are homozygous recessive (both alleles are recessive) or homozygous dominant (both alleles are dominant).
Homozygous refers to having two identical alleles of a particular gene, while heterozygous refers to having two different alleles of a particular gene. In homozygous individuals, both alleles are the same (e.g., AA or aa), while in heterozygous individuals, the alleles are different (e.g., Aa).
They are the same
Homozygous individuals have two identical alleles for a particular gene, while heterozygous individuals have two different alleles for the same gene. Homozygotes can be either homozygous dominant (two dominant alleles) or homozygous recessive (two recessive alleles), while heterozygotes have one dominant and one recessive allele.
if for example we had a yellow and a blue flower yellow being dominant (Y) and blue being recessive (y) a homozygous organism has the phenotype of either being YY or yy and a heterozygous organism could only be Yy.
In genetics, homozygous genes are identical alleles, while heterozygous genes have different alleles. For example, TT(same alleles) is homozygous genotype, while Tt (different alleles) is a heterozygous genotype.
one is curved one is straight
A cross between two individuals that are homozygous for different alleles will only produce heterozygous offspring. This is because each parent can only donate one type of allele, resulting in all offspring being heterozygous for that particular gene.
Heterozygous is when the organism has two different alleles for a traitHomozygous is when they have two of the same the sameexample of homozygous= two blue eyesexample of heterozygous= one blue eye and one green eyeHomozygous is when the combination of alleles are the same. EX: AA or BB. Heterozygous are when the combination of alleles are different. EX: Aa or Bb.
Homozygous recessive: is when the genes are both recessive Homozygous dominant: is when the genes are both dominant (traits show) Heterozygous dominant: is when one gene is dominant and one is recessive (traits show) Heterozygous recessive: is the same as heterozygous dominant but the dominant genes are inactive
