How does a dominant form of an allele affect the expressions of a recessive form of an allele?

If you have a heterozygous (one dominant and one recessive) individual, it will only express the dominant allele in complete dominance; if it's codominance then some sort of "combined property" resulting from both the dominant and recessive allele would be expressed.
On the other hand if you have a homozygous (both dominant or both recessive) you needn't bother.

An allele is either large or small?
An allele is not just small....it is microscopic. An allele is a gene of different expressions (dominant and recessive)
What is allele masked by the dominant allele?
The Allele That Is Covered By The Dominant Allele Is The Recessive Allele.
How is dominant trait and recessive trait related?
They are related to each other because whether they are dominant or recessive they are both homozygous, meaning the same. They can either be homozygous dominant or homozygous recessive. If they are heterozygous then they are different because it contains one dominant and one recessive allele each. EX: AA=homozygous dominant allele aa=homozygous recessive allele Aa=heterozygous allele
What is it Dominant allele What is a recessive allele?
A genotype in which there are both a dominant and a recessive allele is called heterozygous.
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.
Is albinism controlled by a dominant allele or by a recessive allele?
Recessive allele.
What allele is covered up by the dominant allele?
An allele that's masked by a dominant gene is called a "Recessive"recessiverecessive traitThe recessive allele. Often depicted as the "small r" in examples: Rr, R=dominant, r= recessive.
When on e allele of a gene masks the presence of the other allele what form is masked?
The recessive allele.
If and individual has one dominant allele and one recessive allele will the recessive allele show up?
YES ALWAYS!!! Even if you have for example, Aa (A being the dominant allele and a being the recessive allele) that trait will always be dominant!
What is e difference between a dominate and recessive allele?
The answer is that The difference is that dominant dominates, and recessive is dominated.
In one allele is dominant to a recessive allele?
In _____, one allele is dominant to a recessive allele.
Is a recessive allele different from a dominant allele?
Yes, they are different. A recessive allele gets its name because when in the presence of a dominant allele, it will "recede" and not show, hence the name for the dominant allele.
