Help please!! :) The genotype represents: A. a paired combination of genes B. either a dominate or recessive gene C. a given phenotype D. two alleles
What do you think it should be?
I was thinking either B or D but I'm still not sure. @Abhisar
i think its D
Genotype is basically the genetic make-up/description of a cell. It tells about what kind of genes are present inside a cell. Does this rings a bell?
okay so that would narrow my choices down to A or C sooooo iam thinking C ? @Abhisar
is can be....two alleles e:g AA or Aa (for albinism) showing two alleles
Why I think it is not D It will be the answer only if we are considering one trait like say tallness but there are many traits in a cell for example do you remember dihybrid cross ? there are four alleles in a dihybrid cross.
hmmmm...
But if we consider option A i.e paired combination of genes then i think it's true
hmm yeh it can be the word PAIRED matters alot ..
Also for D, there are sometimes like say ABO blood grouping which has more than two alleles for the same trait.......
yeh homozygous
Overall the options are two close but if we have to select only one my opinion will be A, i.e paired combination of genes.
*too
hmmm well this question really is confusin ..
Ohhh okay i sorta see what you are talking about now! @Abhisar
i think its option A and i will agree with abhisar
hmmm still confused...
I think it is Option A also. But thanks you guys for the Help!!
genotype represent a paired combinations either dominant or reccesive or both
Let's call @aaronq for his opinion
ur welcum
I also think it's A. D would be true if all organisms had only two possible alleles for a gene which isn't the case(plants can have many more)
Well yes, that makes much more sense !
