Recessive. The trait will only show up if both parents have the gene recessively (aa). If the genetic make up is Aa or AA, there will be melanin production, meaning albinism is an aa gene only. Albinism is a recessive allele.
Albinism is a recessive trait.
Albinism is a recessive trait which will result in a lack of pigmentation in the skin eyes and hair. It occurs about 1 in every 17,000 people in the U.S.
Albinism is typically caused by a recessive gene.
A recessive trait cannot be dominant over a dominant trait. Dominant traits are always expressed over recessive traits in heterozygous individuals because they mask the expression of the recessive trait.

A recessive trait. When a recessive allele is with a dominant allele, only the dominanate trait can be seen.
It is a recessive trait
recessive
Recessive allele.
False because a living thing that shows a dominant trait can not be homozygous recessive. If it is homozygous recessive it will show recessive trait. A living thing that shows dominant trait may be homozygous dominant or hetrozygous.
Albinism is a recessive, autosomal trait. So no, it is not sex-linked.
The observable characteristic are called the genotype and any dominant trait can mask the recessive. An example would be Black Angus cattle can actually carry a red recessive trait because black is the dominant trait in cattle breeding
