Question

A sex-linked dominant gene, barred (feather pattern) can be used to sex newly hatched chicks. If a
barred hen is mated to non-barred rooster, what are the phenotypes of the males and female chicks?

Definition Definition Observable physical traits or characteristics of an organism, which are determined by its genetic makeup (genotype) as well as environmental factors. These traits can include anything from eye color or height to behavior or disease susceptibility. Understanding an organism's phenotype is important in fields such as genetics, medicine, and ecology.
