with the traits first letter as a capital { ex: tall will be represented as T} the recessive allele will be the same letter as a lowercase letter { tall, dominant, is T, short ,recessive, so it would be t
Yes, geneticists use letters to represent alleles of organisms. Typically, uppercase letters are used to represent dominant alleles, and lowercase letters are used to represent recessive alleles. For example, "A" may represent a dominant allele and "a" a recessive allele for a specific gene.
2 capital letter together represents a dominant trait. Ex... (PP)
The recessive allele.
Yes, a recessive allele will be expressed if there is no dominant allele present in the genotype. This is because in the absence of a dominant allele, the recessive allele has the opportunity to be expressed in the phenotype.
A dominant allele is an allele that can take over a recessive allele, so if you have a dominant allele and a recessive allele, then the offspring will most likely have a dominant allele over a recessive allele. The dominant allele is expressed over the recessive allele.

A capital letter, example, Ff, F would be the dominant letter. Also, in Nn, N will be the dominant letter because its capital and dominant

An allele that is masked by the dominant allele is called a recessive allele. When an individual has one dominant allele and one recessive allele, only the trait determined by the dominant allele will be expressed. The recessive allele will only be expressed if an individual has two copies of it (homozygous recessive).
The recessive allele.
In a dominant-recessive allele relationship, the dominant allele will be expressed phenotypically over the recessive allele. This means that even if an organism carries one dominant and one recessive allele for a particular trait, the dominant allele will determine the observable characteristic.
The dominant allele is the trait that shows up in the organism when the allele is present
An allele that is always expressed when it is present is the dominant allele.
For a dominant trait to be expressed, you either need a RR or an Rr genotype. The other genotype, rr, is recessive only. In genetics, capital letters represent a dominant allele, and lower case letters represent the recessive allele.
A genotype in which there are both a dominant and a recessive allele is called heterozygous.
Yes, a recessive allele will be expressed if there is no dominant allele present in the genotype. This is because in the absence of a dominant allele, the recessive allele has the opportunity to be expressed in the phenotype.
