Is normal color vision dominant or recessive Is colorblindness dominant or recessive?

Normal color vision is typically considered the dominant trait, while colorblindness is recessive. This means that a person needs to inherit two copies of the colorblindness gene (one from each parent) to express the condition. In contrast, inheriting just one copy of the normal color vision gene is sufficient to have normal color vision.

a dominant allele will express its trait , as well as be carried by the person. the word carrier is commonly used for a person who bears an allele which does not express itself(i.e. a recessive gene).
