G. H. I. Since Huntington's disease is caused by a dominant allele, this mean that it's better to inherit H than h? does Since Huntington's disease is caused by a dominant allele, does this mean that more aggressive, outgoing people have a H and quiet, timid people have a h? What does it mean when we say that one allele is dominant?

Dominant Traits. A couple is going to have a baby. They are concerned about Huntington's Diseases, which results from having a dominant copy of the Huntington allele ("H"). Homozygous recessive individuals ("hh") are not affected. Thus, having one dominant version of the gene results in an affected phenotype. The woman is not affected, but the man is. What alleles does mom have? What alleles does that have? Make a punnett square
7. The ability to roll your tongue (R) is dominant to lack of this ability (r). A. What is the genotype of a man who can roll his tongue if his father couldn’t? B. If a man who is heterozygous for tongue rolling marries a woman who is heterozygous, what would you predict for the genotypes and phenotypes of their children?
When are recessive alleles expressed? Group of answer choices When the dominant allele is not present in a genotype When a dominant and recessive allele are both present in a genotype When two dominant alleles are present in a genotype When the recessive allele is not present in a genotype
A person has the genotype AabbCCDdEEFfGgHH for 8 genes. State how many genes are homozygous dominant, how many genes are heterozygous, and how many genes are recessive.
Plsssssssss helppppppppp, how can NF1 be spontaneous? Include the following terms: -genotype - phenotype - homozygous - heterozygous - inheritance - alleles - dominant - recessive
Write about white privilege and colorism with description of examle?
C. Give the genotypic and phenotypic ratios 1. Hemophilia is a disease caused by a gene found on the X chromosome. The recessive allele causes the disease. Tall (T) is dominant over short (t). A homozygous tall female carrier marries a short hemophiliac male. Predict the genotype and phenotype of their offspring. 2. In mice, the ability to run normally is a dominant trait. Mice with this trait are called running mice (R). The recessive trait causes mice to run in circles only. Mice with this trait are called waltzing mice (r). Hair color is also inherited in mice. Black hair (B) is dominant over brown hair (b). 2 heterozygous running, heterozygous black mice were crossed. Give the genotypic and phenotypic ratios of their offspring.
according to tongue rolling what is my phenotype and my parents' phenotype from the observed phenotypes? list the possible genotypes for each, and do a Punnett Square for the parents to determine the likelihood of me having gotten my given phenotype and any insights on what your genotype is from the Punnett Square.
Let’s look at hair texture. Some people have curly hair, some have straight hair and some express a traitthat is in-between (Incomplete Dominance), or wavy hair. Therefore curly and straight are bothhomozygous and wavy is the expression of the heterozygous condition. Instead of using capital and lowercase letters, we’ll add a prime (`) to the letter. This is because one is not dominant over the other, andthey will both contribute to the phenotype. We can use H to indicate curly hair and H` to indicate straighthair.Given this information, complete the square: Parent Phenotype(appearance) Genotype(alleles) 1 Curly hair HH 2 Straight hair H'H' Do you remember where the alleles of each parent go?Parents: Offspring: Genotypes: Phenotypes: What are the potential phenotypes and genotypes of the offspring?
Like brown eyes, presence of dimples and cleft chin are dominant traits. Sarah has brown eyes and dimples, but no cleft chin. Her father has blue eyes but no dimples. She just married James who has blue eyes, dimples, and cleft chin. His mother has no cleft chin and his father has no dimples. What is the probability that Sarah and James will have a baby girl with blue eyes and dimples? What is the probability that they will have a baby boy with brown eyes and cleft chin?
Define blending inheritance and contrast it with preformationism.
Genotype refers to the letters used as symbols for the genes. Phenotype refers to the appearance.Let’s practice assigning letters for the tall and short phenotype. Remember, we usually use the letter of the dominant (trait).
