What is the relationship between genotype and phenotype?

In a certain plant, the alleles A, B, and C are completely dominant to the alleles a, b, and c. A plant with the genotype AABbcc will have the same phenotype as a plant with the genotype __________.

Color in squash is controlled by epistatic interactions in which color is recessive to no color. At the first locus, white squash (W) is dominant to colored squash (w). At the second locus, yellow (Y) is dominant to green (y). What is the phenotype of a squash with the genotype wwYy?

Complete this concept map to help you review some key concepts of genetics. a. b. c. d. e. f.

Whether an allele is dominant or recessive depends ona. how common the allele is, relative to other alleles.b. whether it is inherited from the mother or the father.c. whether it or another allele determines the phenotype when both are present.d. whether or not it is linked to other genes.

Why is the pea wrinkle-seed allele a recessive allele?a. It 'recedes' in the F2 generation when homozygous parents are crossed.b. The trait associated with the allele is not exhibited in heterozygotes.c. Individuals with the allele have lower fitness than that of individuals with the dominant allele.d. The allele is less common than the dominant allele. (The wrinkled allele is a rare mutant.)

The alleles found in haploid organisms cannot be dominant or recessive. Why?a. Dominance and recessiveness describe which of two possible phenotypes are exhibited when two different alleles occur in the same individual.b. Because only one allele is present, alleles in haploid organisms are always dominant.Ac. lleles in haploid individuals are transmitted like mitochondrial DNA or chloroplast DNA.d. Most haploid individuals are bacteria, and bacterial genetics is completely different from eukaryotic genetics.
