"recessive"
The allele not expressed is referred to as a recessiveallele.
Dominant allele as opposed to recessive allele.
expressed in the phenotype even when paired with a different allele.
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.
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.
The recessive allele.
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 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.
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.
I think it is dominant in heterozygote form
The organism is heterozygous for that allele.
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.
