Apparently so they are, in human society it has always been said for the men to be dominant and the women to be lower, however, to add some humour, when you see a husband and wife, it is normally the wife hassling and scaring the husband ;)
Meerkats tell each other apart with smell and dominant
Meerkats live in groups called gangs, mobs, or clans. Each clan has an alpha male and female, but the female is dominant over the male. Only the dominant male and female are allowed to breed, and if any other females have pups, the alpha female usually kills the pups. The group consists of the alpha pair's pups that have grown up, but haven't yet left to start their own group. The adults in the group work together to raise the alpha pair's young pups. The meerkats sleep in burrows, and young pups stay home at the burrow, while one or two meerkats keep an eye on them, when the rest of the group leaves to hunt for insects, scorpions, etc. While foraging, there is always at least one meerkat on lookout to warn the rest of threats such as birds of prey. If there is a threat, they run to an emergency burrow, which they have scattered across their territory. Meerkats are strictly territorial, and clans often fight each other for land when food is scarce.

A wolf can't just become dominant. Either they are submissive oir dominant. No matter how low they are, they always try to climb higher in the pack and challenge their position. Wolves seem to love being alpha.

The orca hierarchy is matriarchal meaning female dominant
Meerkats do not usually mate for life. The alpha male and alpha female of a group mate, and stay together as long as they can. However, for various reasons the one or the other is not always able to be the alpha, or one may die, leaving the mate to find someone else.
The term femdom can be used to mean a dominant female, or a dominatrix.
Meerkats have many predators such as snakes, martial eagles, jackals and other rival meerkat mobs.So therefore meerkats have big mobs tp protect themselves.It is like I scratch your back you scratch mine.If one meerkat protects another meerkat like when it is sleeping then that meerkat will return the favour.Everyone is always on watch for predators and various alarm calls mean different predators.A meerkat mob is like a giant family with the alpha female being at the head of it all.the alpha female does most of the breeding and meerkats are very social animals. To conclude meerkats live together so then they can protect ceach other and they are very social creatures so they do not fight often unless it is rival meerkats.
No - the father's genes are not always the dominant genes.
Male jaguars are generally more dominant in the animal kingdom. However, when it comes to the female jaguar protecting her children, the female can become pretty aggressive and controlling/dominant.
