The recessive hair type refers to the genetic trait responsible for straight hair. This means that an individual must inherit two copies of the straight hair gene (one from each parent) in order to have straight hair. If only one copy is inherited, the dominant curly hair gene will be expressed instead.
Statement B, "Bill is recessive for height and dominant for hair," most clearly refers to a person's genotype. This statement indicates specific genetic traits (height and hair type) and whether the traits are dominant or recessive in the individual.
The baby goat is likely to display the dominant trait for curly hair, as the dominant gene overrides the recessive gene. Therefore, the baby goat will have curly hair.
There is no simple dominant or recessive pattern for hair whorl direction. It is influenced by multiple genetic factors and can be different among individuals in the same family.
The trait received is recessive.
If one parent has black hair (dominant) and the other parent has white hair (recessive), the offspring will likely have black hair, as the dominant gene for black hair will override the recessive gene for white hair.
Melanin recessive are those with light skin, light eyes, and light hair.
No, it is recessive.
Straight hair is typically controlled by a dominant allele. Curly hair is usually controlled by a recessive allele.
Black hair would be dominate.
A recessive trait for blonde hair and a recessive trait for red hair will likely result in a child with red hair, as the trait for red hair is typically more dominant than blonde hair. This is because red hair is usually caused by a different gene (MC1R) compared to blonde hair.
1. Shape of face (probably polygenic) Oval dominant, square recessive 2. Cleft in chin No cleft dominant, cleft recessive 3. Hair curl (probably polygenic) Assume incomplete dominance Curly: homozygous Wavy: heterozygous Straight: homozygous 4. Hairline Widow peak dominant, straight hairline recessive 5. Eyebrow size Broad dominant, slender recessive 6. Eyebrow shape Separated dominant, joined recessive 7. Eyelash length Long dominant, short recessive 8. Dimples Dimples dominant, no dimples recessive 9. Earlobes Free lobe dominant, attached recessive 10. Eye shape Almond dominant, round recessive 11. Freckles Freckles dominant, no freckles recessive 12. Tongue rolling Roller dominant, nonroller recessive 13. Tongue folding Inability dominant, ability recessive 14. Finger mid-digital hair Hair dominant, no hair recessive 15. Hitch-hiker's thumb Straight thumb dominant, hitch-hiker thumb recessive 16. Bent little finger Bent dominant, straight recessive 17. Interlaced fingers Left thumb over right dominant, right over left recessive 18. Hair on back of hand Hair dominant, no hair recessive 19. Tendons of Palmar Muscle Two tendons dominant, three tendons recessive
The boys genotype consisted of two recessive genes coding for brown hair.
A recessive trait is a genetic trait that is only expressed when an individual has two copies of the recessive allele. In a heterozygous individual (having one dominant and one recessive allele), the dominant trait will be expressed while the recessive trait remains hidden. Recessive traits typically show up in offspring when both parents carry the recessive allele.
Statement B, "Bill is recessive for height and dominant for hair," most clearly refers to a person's genotype. This statement indicates specific genetic traits (height and hair type) and whether the traits are dominant or recessive in the individual.
The baby goat is likely to display the dominant trait for curly hair, as the dominant gene overrides the recessive gene. Therefore, the baby goat will have curly hair.
There is no simple dominant or recessive pattern for hair whorl direction. It is influenced by multiple genetic factors and can be different among individuals in the same family.
Blonde hair is typically considered a recessive trait, meaning both parents must pass on the blonde hair gene for a child to have blonde hair. If one parent has a dominant brown hair gene, the child is more likely to have brown hair.
