Dominant traits are represented as capital letters (D, R, H, J, etc) and recessive traits are represented as lower case letters (d, r, h, j, etc)

Which traits oberved were dominant and recessive?

In genetics, dominant traits are those that are expressed when an individual has one or two copies of the dominant allele, while recessive traits are only expressed when an individual has two copies of the recessive allele and no dominant allele present.

Dominant traits in terms of heredity?

Dominant traits are traits that are expressed when an individual carries at least one copy of the dominant allele. These traits mask the expression of recessive alleles.
