Question

I need help with these few questions .. 2. Phenotype describes: a. a set of alleles carried for One trait. b. the genetic make-up encoded on chromosomes c. the physical appearance of an organism. d. only homozygous genotypes 3. A child in born from a brown-eyed, heterozygous father with genotype (Ee) and a brown-eyed, heterozygous mother (Ee). What are the chances a child will have blue eyes, which is a recessive trait (e)? a. 100% b. 75% c. 50% d. 25% 4. Dominant traits are expressed over recessive traits when an organism has two differen alleles for a given characteristic. This describes: a. Mendel's Law of Segregation. b. Mendel's Law of Dominance. c. Mendel's Law of Independent Assortment. d. All of the above. can inheritance deviate from Mendel's Laws? When alleles are not completely dominant or recessive. When a gene has more than two alleles. than two phenotypes. When a gene produces more All of the above. None of the above, Mendel's Laws are scientific laws and are therefore absolute.

Explanation / Answer

Phenotypes are the actual visible characteristcs.

So, phenotypes describes c. the physical appearance of the organism.
