Question

Some cats have bobtails, which are short, stumpy tails that result from an inherited, recessive genotype (tt). normal length tails are dominant in cats (tt, tt). when a cat with a bobtail is crossed with a cat that is heterozygous for normal tail length, what is the likelihood that the offspring will have a bobtail? 75% 50% 25% 0%

Answer 1

There is a 50% chance that the offspring of a bobtail cat and a cat with heterozygous normal tail length will have bobtails.

Is the TT phenotype dominant or recessive?

An organism is homozygous (homo meaning "same") for a gene when it possesses two copies of the same allele. An organism may be homozygous recessive (RR) or homozygous dominant (TT) (tt).

Is TT a recessive gene?

An organism may be homozygous recessive (RR) or homozygous dominant (TT) ( tt ). Heterozygous refers to an organism that possesses two distinct alleles (Tt) for a certain gene (hetero- means different). The traits that are visible are referred to as phenotypes.

Are recessive traits common?

Due to the rarity of most recessive illnesses, a kid is more likely to have one if their parents are related. It is more likely for related people to share a rare gene from a common ancestor.
