What allele is expressed in a heterozygote?

The allele not expressed is referred to as a recessiveallele.


What is an expressed allele in a heterozygote?

Dominant allele as opposed to recessive allele.


An allele is dominant in a heterozygote when it is?

expressed in the phenotype even when paired with a different allele.


What is hidden in the heterozygote?

In a heterozygote, there are two different alleles for a specific gene. One allele is dominant and will be expressed, while the other allele, called the recessive allele, is not expressed but is still present in the genetic makeup of the individual. The recessive allele is "hidden" in the heterozygote because its presence does not affect the outward appearance or expression of the dominant allele.


What is the trait being studied in the heterozygote?

The trait being studied in the heterozygote is typically the dominant trait, as it is the one that is expressed in the presence of at least one dominant allele. This allows researchers to observe how the dominant allele interacts with the recessive allele in terms of phenotype expression.


What allele does affect the trait in a heterozygote?

The recessive allele.


In a heterozygote the allele that does not affect the trait?

The allele that does not affect the trait in a heterozygote is known as the recessive allele. This allele is masked by the dominant allele, which determines the observable trait. However, the recessive allele can still be passed on to offspring if both parents are carriers.


When two alleles overshadows the other what is demonstrated?

When one allele completely masks the expression of another allele at the same locus in a heterozygote, it is known as complete dominance. In this case, the dominant allele is expressed in the phenotype while the recessive allele is not observable.


If both alleles are equally expressed in a heterozygote the relationship is called?

The expression of more than one allele is referred to as incomplete dominance. For example a flower that is heterozygous red and white will have a pink phenotype.


Is the allele for retinal blindness dominant?

I think it is dominant in heterozygote form


This is the name of an organism with two different alleles?

The organism is heterozygous for that allele.


What is dominant expression?

Dominant expression refers to the situation where a specific gene allele is more likely to be expressed in an individual, resulting in the appearance of a certain characteristic or trait. This can mask the presence of a recessive allele that carries a different trait.
