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.
What else can I help you with?
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?
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).
In a heterozygote the allele that does not affect the trait?
The allele that does not affect the trait in a heterozygote is known as the recessive allele. This allele is masked by the dominant allele, which determines the observable trait. However, the recessive allele can still be passed on to offspring if both parents are carriers.
In one allele is dominant to a 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.
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.
Which form of gene pair is expressed when both dominant and recessive are present?
In a situation where both a dominant and recessive allele are present in a gene pair, the dominant allele will be expressed phenotypically. The presence of a dominant allele overrides the expression of the recessive allele.
Is albinism controlled by a dominant allele or by a recessive allele?
Recessive allele.
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.
Does recessive allele is expressed if there is no dominant allele present?
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.
If and individual has one dominant allele and one recessive allele will the recessive allele show up?
No, the dominant allele will be expressed in the individual's phenotype, masking the presence of the recessive allele. The recessive allele will only be expressed if an individual inherits two copies of the 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.
Allele that prevents the expression of a recessive allele?
A dominant allele
