| What happens if you have 2 Different Alleles?
-What can this mean? | -This pretty much means you have Instruction for 2 Different Versions of the Characteristic
-But only 1 of the Versions will show its Characteristic, making it a Dominant Allele, because its the one that's showing
-The other Allele, or Version, is a Recessive Allele, so meaning its Insignificant |
| In Genetic Diagrams:
-What are Dominant Alleles presented as?
-What are Recessive Alleles presented as? | -Dominant Alleles have a Capital Letter to show it
-Recessive Alleles have a Lower Case Letter to show it |
| What does it mean if your a Homozygous? | -This means the 2 Alleles you have, for that gene, are the Same, so both Dominant [CC] or both Recessive [cc] |
| What does it mean if your a Heterozygous? | -This means the 2 Alleles you have, for that gene, are Different [Cc] |
| So what would happen if 2 Heterozygous Hamsters that have a Gene about Fur Length [Example] breed? What are the Possibilities and why? | -If the Hamsters are Heterozygous, then it'll look like
-Bb, Bb which is equal to --> B b B b
-Now how you a Times Table Square looks like, you simply do it with the Letter [One Pair on the Left, one at the Top]
-The Possibilities are BB, Bb, Bb, bb
-So 50% of the Outcomes are going to be Heterozygous, and Homozygous
-75% of the Outcomes are going to have a Dominant Allele, so it'll show whatever that Allele will code for |
| What does Single Gene Inheritance mean? | -Its in the name really, simply means the Characteristic is controlled by 1 Gene [Allele] |
