A trait that is hidden?
The trait that is hidden is recessive trait.
One trait masking another form of a trait?
The trait that is masked is recessive. The trait that does the masking is dominant.
What is the relation between dominant and recessive alleles?
the dominant trait is the stronger one and the recessive trait is the weaker one
In a hybrid individual the trait that is covered and not expressed is the what trait?
recessive
What type of trait prevents the other type from being seen?
A recessive trait. When a recessive allele is with a dominant allele, only the dominanate trait can be seen.
What does reccesive trait mean?
A recessive trait is one that will only be expressed when in the presence of two recessive alleles.
What does it mean that an organism is homozygous recessive for a trait?
That organism has two recessive alleles for that trait, one from each parent. It will display the recessive trait.
What does it mean when a trait is recessive?
The principle of excessiveness is defined as the explanation of why one trait will not show over another. If a trait is recessive it will not show when a dominant trait is present.
Why are two recessive alleles needed for a recesssive trait to be shown?
bcoz in case of one dominant and one recessive, dominant allele will express its characters and suppresses the recessive ones. so for the expression of recessive characters both allele should be recessive.
What is a trait that is expressed even if only one gene for that form of the trait is inherited?
It is a dominant trait. You only need one gene of a dominant trait for that trait to be expressed. You need two copies of the recessive trait in order for the trait to be expressed.
What is the only way a recessive trait will be expressed?
Breed/use only organisms showing the recessive trait for starters. If one of the parents or progenitor lines show the dominant trait then don't use their offspring. If the offspring of one of the oranisims show the dominant trait then remove both the parent of this offspring and this offspring showing the dominant trait from your program.
