What is dominant recessive?

There is dominant and there is recessive. There is no dominant recessive. A dominant gene will always be expressed when present, such as in the homozygous dominant genotype (RR), or heterozygous genotype (Rr). A recessive allele is only expressed when the genotype is homozygous recessive (rr).


In order for a child to inherit a recessive trait both parents must be carriers of the recessive gene?

No. A recessive gene can be inherited from one parent, a dominant from another, or two alike dominants. (No such thing as two alike recessive, the gene with the furthest back dominant gene. Say a blonde little girl has a blonde hybrid mother and a brown hybrid father. She ended up getting brown recessive. Since both of her parents were hybrid, she only had a recessive hair color gene from one parent.


Is vulcan dominant or recessive?

The Vulcan is the dominant expression.The earthling sign is recessive.


Which form of gene pair is expressed when both dominant and recessive are present?

If the gene is governed by a dominant and recessive allele, then if the dominant allele is present, the dominant trait will be expressed. If both alleles are recessive, then the recessive trait will be expressed.


What is the different between dominant and recessive?

Dominant trait is the one which is expressed when the homologous pair of genes controlling it are either homozygous or Hetrozygous dominant; on the other hand recessive trait has both genes to be homozygous recessive. in fact trait is controlled by the form of genes. Dominant gene expresses even when it is in the company of recessive gene. However recessive gene expresses only when in company of recessive gene

Is a situation in which a dominant allele completely masks a recessive allele for a gene.?

If you have 2 dominant alleles, the gene will be dominant, if you have 2 recessive alleles, the gene will be recessive. But if you have 1 recessive and 1 dominant, the Dominant allele will mask the recessive one.
