What controls the traits that a person exhibits and the traits that are hidden deep down‚ sometimes for generations at a time

Extended Experimental Investigation | May 28 2013 | Drosophila melanogaster lab experiment Question: How do the dominant or recessive genes in particular traits in a cross between a male and female Drosophila determine the traits of its offspring? Aim: to establish whether characteristics produced from the offspring of a drosophila cross are recessive or dominant traits. Hypothesis: If certain phenotypes are expressed in the offspring from the cross of certain Drosophila‚ then the determination

Gregor Mendel wondered is his principle of segregation worked with individuals who differed in two traits. To test this‚ Mendel crossed pure lined round‚ yellow seeds with pure lined wrinkled‚ green seeds. He predicted that the F_1 offspring would be heterozygous for both genes. Experiments had established that the allele for yellow seeds were the dominant allele (Y) and green seeds were the recessive allele (y). There were two different ways as to how seed shape and seed color would be passed onto
