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.
What else can I help you with?
What makes a dominant alleles different from a recessive alleles?
A dominant alle masks the expression of the recessive trait in a heterozygous genotype, a recessive allele is the phenotpye expressed is the recessive trait.
What can be dominant or recessive?
Alleles can be dominant or recessive
What are alleles and what are the two forms?
Alleles are different versions of a gene that can code for different traits. The two forms of alleles are dominant and recessive. Dominant alleles mask the effects of recessive alleles when present together in an individual's genotype.
If a gene has one completely dominant allele and two recessive alleles how many different traits can these alleles produce?
A gene with one completely dominant allele and two recessive alleles can produce two different traits. The dominant allele will express its trait regardless of whether it is paired with another dominant or a recessive allele, while the two recessive alleles will express their trait only when paired together. Therefore, the possible combinations of alleles result in one dominant trait and one recessive trait.
What are the different forms of a gene either dominant or recessive?
Genes can exist in different forms called alleles. Dominant alleles are expressed when present, masking the effects of recessive alleles. Recessive alleles are only expressed when two copies are present, one from each parent. This results in a wide range of possible genetic combinations and expressions.
How are dominant and recessive alleles are represented in a punnet square?
Dominant alleles are shown by a capital letter and recessive alleles are lowercase letters.
How are Dominant and recessive alleles are represented in Punnet Square?
Dominant alleles are shown by a capital letter and recessive alleles are lowercase letters.
What is gene pair consists of two dominant alleles or two recessive alleles?
A gene pair that consists of 2 dominant or 2 recessive alleles is considered homozygous dominant or homozygous recessive.
What type of alleles mask recessive alleles?
Dominant alleles :-)
What are the two terms for having matching alleles for a certain trait?
The two terms for having matching alleles for a certain trait are "homozygous dominant" (two dominant alleles) and "homozygous recessive" (two recessive alleles).
How dominant and recessive alleles are represented in a Punnett Square?
Dominant alleles are written in upper case (i.e, 'A'), while recessive alleles are lower case (i.e, 'a')
What is two dominant alleles called?
In eyes, it would be brown is dominant, and blue is recessive. Free earlobe allele is said to be dominant over the attached earlobe allele. When an organism has two dominant alleles for a trait, it is called homozygous dominant. Two recessive alleles for a trait is homozygous recessive.
