Traits of both parents
The health of the paretns
The pollenation of the parents
The traits of one parent
Which of the following describes the difference between genotype and phenotype?
genotype is the physical traits we see and phenotype is the names given to alleles of a gene
genotypes are the genes that are passed down; phenotypes are the different versions of those genes
phenotypes are the genes that are passed down; genotypes are the different versions of those genes
genotype refers to the alleles for a given gene; phenotype refers to the trait that you can see

There are three alleles
What happens to a patient is given the wrong blood type during a transfusion?
Nothing blood type does not matter much when giving someone a blood transfusion
The patient would be fine after a period of adjustment and would go home feeling better
The antibodies in the patient would reject the antibodies in the blood recieved causing problems
The antibodies in the patient would adapt to the antibodies that were recieved causing pain

codominance
polygenic traits
incomplete dominance
