my paper says give an example of a person that has two different genes for genotype (hint: a hybrid)...whats that mean?

(Broken Link Removed)

ESPECIALLY SCROLL DOWN TO TONGUE ROLLING (which is a dominant trait)

thanks..im not that heterozygous..im the other h one...ad i cant role my tongue...thank you

Genotype refers to the genetic makeup of an individual, specifically the combination of alleles (different versions of a gene) they possess for a particular trait. A hybrid, in the context of genetics, refers to an individual that has two different genes for a particular trait.

To give an example of a person with two different genes for genotype, let's consider the trait of tongue rolling. Tongue rolling is a dominant trait, meaning that if a person possesses at least one dominant allele for this trait, they will have the ability to roll their tongue.

Now, to answer your question and give an example, please follow the steps below:

1. Start by reading the article on About.com about heterozygosity (the condition of having two different alleles for a specific trait) found here: http://biology.about.com/bldefhetzyg.htm. This article will provide a basic understanding of genotypes and heterozygosity.

2. Next, access the second link provided in your question. Unfortunately, the link appears to be broken, so you may need to search for another source that specifically explains the concept of tongue rolling as a dominant trait. You can do this by searching for "tongue rolling dominant trait genetics" in a search engine.

3. Once you find a source that explains tongue rolling as a dominant trait, scroll down within the article or webpage to find the relevant information. It will likely describe how having at least one copy of the dominant allele for tongue rolling enables an individual to roll their tongue, while not having the dominant allele results in the inability to perform this action.

Although you mentioned not being able to roll your tongue, it's important to note that tongue rolling is not a trait that everyone can do, as it depends on the specific allele combination an individual possesses. Thank you for your question, and I hope this explanation helps clarify the concept of genotype and provides guidance on finding an example of a person with two different genes for genotype.
