MENDELIAN GENETICS

This type of allele is less likely to be prominent (to show up) in offspring

• Dominant genotype

• Recessive allele

• Dominant allele

• Recessive phenotype

If tall eyeballs (T) are dominant to short eyeballs (t), give the genotypes that are possible for tall eyeballs.

If a pea plant were homozygous recessive for height, how would its alleles be represented?

• TT
• Tt
• tt
• tT

What do we call the result of the genotype (for example, the color of the peas)?

• Visible traits
• Physiotrait
• Genotype 2
• Phenotype

In watermelons, green rinds (G) are dominant to striped rinds (g).  What is the genotype of a heterozygous green watermelon?

• GG
• Gg
• gg
• green

Genotype: Aa

• homozygous dominant

• homozygous recessive

• heterozygous dominant

If green is dominant over purple, then what is the genotype for this individual?

• Purple
• Green
• GG
• gg
