Question
q8 a ____ organism is the offspring of many generations that have the same form of a trait. true - breeding tall hybrid original cross - pollinated
In genetics, a true - breeding organism is one that, when self - fertilized or crossed with another true - breeding organism of the same type, always passes down a particular trait to its offspring. This is because true - breeding organisms are homozygous for the trait in question. Tall is just one possible trait and not the general term for this concept. Hybrid organisms have mixed genetic traits from different parents. Original and cross - pollinated do not describe the concept of an organism being the offspring of many generations with the same trait form.
