Results from our forumHow dominance works at the DNA/RNA/protein... mental model now: Suppose we have a gene G which comes in two forms, G (dominant) and g (recessive), and we have an individual who is Gg (heterozygous ... plants are Green. So, green is dominant. At that point it’s called a trait locus. Than you do a lot of research and discover that this locus ...

difficult biology problem, appriciate ANY help!... Human beings are very complex and so is human genetics. There are some traits in humans determined by a single gene such as tongue rolling. Some ... able to roll their tongue up at the edges; others are not. Is this a dominant or recessive trait? Study this pedigree which shows the appearance ...

Determining (P) plants from F2 dataFirst of all, there is nothing like heterozygous dominant. Heterozygous organism is simply heterozygous ;) so, the color is yeallow : purple - 203 : 467 - 1 : 2,3, that seems pretty close to 1 : 3 the other trait is plump : shriveled - 513 : 157 - 1 : 3,27, -"- since purple and plump ...
