If a homozygous black guinea pig (BB) is crossed with a homozygous white guinea pig (bb), all offspring will inherit one black allele (B) from the black parent and one white allele (b) from the white parent, resulting in heterozygous offspring (Bb). Since black fur is dominant over white fur, all offspring will have black fur. Therefore, the probability of an offspring having black fur is 100%.
i think it will stay the same each year
A figure resulting from a transformation is called an IMAGE
The resulting integer is positive seen as they're both positive.
The resulting value of the sum is zero. This is because you have nothing to divide the number with. Gareth.f Cardiff, Wales
There is a 25% chance (1 in 4) that the offspring will be homozygous for the trait. This is because when both parents are heterozygous (Aa), they can pass on either the dominant allele (A) or the recessive allele (a) to their offspring, resulting in a 1 in 4 chance of the offspring receiving the recessive allele from both parents and becoming homozygous (aa) for that trait.
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 offspring will all be heterozygous for the trait, carrying one dominant and one recessive allele. This is known as a monohybrid cross, resulting in all offspring displaying the dominant trait phenotypically but carrying the recessive allele genotypically.
It depends on the parents. The parent could have two dominant genes which would give a 0% chance of the offspring being recessive. The only way that the offspring could have a recessive characteristic is if the both parents have one dominant and one recessive gene, a 25% chance. The chance that both parents would pass on the recessive gene (if they have one dominant and recessive gene) is also 25%, because there is a 50% chance for each parent.
To determine the hair color of the guinea pigs' offspring, we need to know the genotypes of the parents. If one parent is homozygous dominant (BB) and the other is homozygous recessive (bb), all offspring will be heterozygous (Bb) and will have black hair. If both parents are heterozygous (Bb), approximately 25% of the offspring are expected to be homozygous dominant (BB), 50% heterozygous (Bb), and 25% homozygous recessive (bb), resulting in a 75% chance of black hair and a 25% chance of white hair.
100% of the offspring will display the dominant trait because the homozygous dominant parent can only pass on the dominant allele. The offspring will inherit one dominant allele from the dominant parent and one recessive allele from the recessive parent, resulting in a heterozygous genotype expressing the dominant trait.
No, inbreeding increases the likelihood of offspring being homozygous for many traits, rather than heterozygous. This can lead to an increased expression of deleterious recessive genes, potentially resulting in health issues or genetic disorders.
The 3:1 ratio for a particular trait suggests that the trait is determined by a single gene with two alleles. It indicates that one parent is homozygous dominant for the trait, one parent is homozygous recessive, and the offspring are heterozygous.
A monohybrid cross between two heterozygous parents (Aa x Aa) would produce 100% heterozygous offspring. Each parent contributes one allele for the trait, resulting in all offspring being heterozygous.
The ratio produced would be 1:1 for heterozygous (Tt) offspring to homozygous recessive (tt) offspring. This is because the parent with genotype Tt will pass on one dominant allele (T) and one recessive allele (t) to its offspring, resulting in a 50% chance of either genotype in the offspring.
The child will inherit one allele from each parent. Since the mother is homozygous dominant (AA) and the father is homozygous recessive (aa), the child will inherit one dominant allele from the mother and one recessive allele from the father, resulting in a heterozygous genotype (Aa).
The only genotype that can produce a recessive phenotype is homozygous for the recessive allele (aa). This means that both copies of the gene are the recessive allele, resulting in the expression of the recessive trait.
