Klinefelter syndrome is not a trait; it is the result of nondisjunction during meiosis (the production of sex cells), when either the egg cell ends up having two X chromosomes or the sperm carries both X and Y, giving the fertilized egg XXY.
recessive
A living thing with a dominant and a recessive gene for a trait is heterozygous. This individual will display the dominant phenotype for that trait but may have offspring that display the recessive trait.
Most cases of triple X syndrome are not inherited so it is not a dominant or recessive trait.
The dominant trait is shown in that organism with the possibility of carrying either the dominant or recessive gene to the next generation
Alleles can either be recessive or dominant. Dominant alleles produce a dominant trait which is normally seen, whereas although the recessive allele is present, the recessive trait is not normally visible. However, in cases of codominance and complete dominance the dominant trait does not completely hide the recessive trait and it can show through.
A dominant trait is a genetic trait which may cause a hereditary condition, a recessive trait disappears or goes in the background and only shows in a few generations.
Cockayne syndrome is a recessive trait.
Down syndrome is neither dominant nor recessive. Actually, it is considered to be an "autosomal" trait. This occurs when there is damage to the chromosome.
recessive
A trait that masks another trait is called dominant, or a dominant trait.
It is a recessive trait
Recessive, but dominant in some rare cases.
When two recessive genes are inherited, and the portion of recessive inheritance is 51% or greater in favor of the recessive trait.
A living thing with a dominant and a recessive gene for a trait is heterozygous. This individual will display the dominant phenotype for that trait but may have offspring that display the recessive trait.
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.
A recessive trait is a trait that is not shown or expressed physically but is retained within the persons genes, whereas a dominant trait is a trait which opresses the recessive trait and is prodominantly shown or expressed physically. For example it is possible for two red-haired parents, both with recessive dark haired genes, to have a dark haired child. they must both have the recessive gene or the dominant gene of red - hair will be expressed in the child
A recessive trait is a trait that is not dominant, and is not really seen in ones phenotype.
