How do genetics indicate a dominate allele and a recessive allele?

∙ 12y ago
I only have basic genetic knowledge, but I'm fairly certain that a dominant allele would be indicated by an uppercase letter and a recessive one would be indicated by a lower-case one. For example, the color bi-black would be indicated as "bb" for two recessive alleles, "Bb" for one, and "BB" for only dominant alleles. Make sense? :)

What is e difference between a dominate and recessive allele?
The answer is that The difference is that dominant dominates, and recessive is dominated.
Every allele is a what allele?
No! they are different
How is a recessive allele from a dominant allele?
its different because adominant allele is in charge
What form of gene that always shows even in the presence of recessive allele?
Dominate
How do you read a Punnet Square?
Reading a punnet square is much like reading a grid map. Start with one finger on the father allele and one on the mother allele and find where they meet in the middle, the combination of both the father allele and the mother allele will give you the genotype. Repeat for all four middle squares. In all punnet squares, the dominate gene is the capital letter (e.g R) and the recessive gene is the normal letter (e.g r). When two dominate alleles show (RR) the phenotype will show the dominate gene. When one dominate and one recessive allele show the dominate gene will still show (Rr), in females they call it them a carrier female because they carry the recessive allele as well. When two recessive alleles show (rr) the recessive feature will show in the phenotype.
Dominate allele will mask any other allele that is considered what?
recessive
What gene pair that consists of a dominate allele and a recessive allele?
the tiger of ireland
How many alleles are usually in the gene pool for each trait?
Each gene has a dominate and recessive allele, so there are two types of alleles in each gene. The dominate allele is stronger than the recessive allele unless there are two recessive alleles.
What letters are given in genetics to represent the dominate allele?
capital letters, such as PP equals two dominant alleles, pp equals two recessive alleles.
What is e difference between a dominate and recessive allele?
The answer is that The difference is that dominant dominates, and recessive is dominated.
Recessive allele different from dominate allele?
You need two recessive alleles to get their trait, but only one dominant allele to get that trait. A dominant allele basically overrides a recessive one if they are together, but the recessive gene can show up in offspring.
Are alleles dominant or recessive?
Alleles are neither entirely recessive nor entirely dominate. An allele is any one of a number of alternative forms of the same gene on a chromosome.For example: say a flower only blooms either red or white flowers. There is a different allele for each color-- a red allele and a white allele. Now, one color may be dominate over the other recessive gene. For example, if the red color was dominate and the white color was recessive, then those certain alleles would be dominate and recessive, respectively. But alleles in general cannot be either recessive or dominate. It depends on the gene and it depends on the trait.
What is it called having a dominate and recessive allele?
If an individual has one recessive allele and one dominant allele, they are known as heterozygous. The dominant trait will be expressed.
An allele that is hidden by other alleles is called?
i think the answer your lokking for is recessive Recessive is when you have a trait in your genome but it doesn't show in your physical appearance
Every allele is a what allele?
No! they are different
How is a recessive allele from a dominant allele?

What form of gene that always shows even in the presence of recessive allele?
Dominate
