it's possible
Let's see what combinations can be formed.HH, HH, Hh, Hh.So, yes their offspring can contain the recessive allele.(THe offspring can be a carrier of the recessive allele.)However, since it is impossible for the offspring to be homozygous recessive,the recessive trait/gene will not show in the offspring's phenotype.Hope that helps!
If both parents carry a recessive gene for a particular trait, there is a 25% chance that their offspring will inherit two copies of the recessive gene and exhibit the corresponding trait. This can be determined through genetic Punnett square analysis to predict the probability of different genetic outcomes in offspring.

Their offspring will have dominant genes. However, if these offspring have offspring with an amimal with recessive genes, the recessive genes will show up.
If a genetic disorder is carried on a recessive gene, offspring will only have the disorder if both parents have the recessive gene.
No, because he or she cannot pass the gene on to his or her offspring (because he or she does not have a copy of the gene).
No, because he or she cannot pass the gene on to his or her offspring (because he or she does not have a copy of the gene).
More information is needed. The percent of offspring that will display the recessive trait from parents with Hh and HH will be different than the percent of offspring that will display the recessive trait from parents with hh and Hh.
It depends on the parents. The parent could have two dominant genes which would give a 0% chance of the offspring being recessive. The only way that the offspring could have a recessive characteristic is if the both parents have one dominant and one recessive gene, a 25% chance. The chance that both parents would pass on the recessive gene (if they have one dominant and recessive gene) is also 25%, because there is a 50% chance for each parent.
As long as a persons genotype consists of at least one recessive gene, they can pass it on to offspring to give them the disease, which makes them a carrier. Since this persons genes are both recessive, it is definite that they will pass on the recessive gene.

hh X Hh You get two recessives; hh and hh and two heterozygous plants; Hh and Hh
