NO, the traits do not disappear they are simply "masked". According to Mendelian theory there are DOMINANT (A) and RECESSIVE (a) traits. When Aa is present the recessive trait is masked therefore it does not show up. These are called alleles.

recessive
This phenomenon is known as dominance, where one gene masks the expression of another gene for the same trait. When an organism carries two different genes for a trait, one gene is dominant and determines the observable trait, while the other gene, known as recessive, is not expressed in the presence of the dominant gene.
They have different genes just as humans do.
genes are the traits past down to their offsprings.
recessive
heterozygous
A person's genes are what control what traits. Genes can either be recessive or dominant and the combination of many different genes are what make up different traits.
Traits in organisms are controlled by genes, which are specific segments of DNA that code for different characteristics. Genes can be inherited from parents and influence the physical and behavioral traits of an organism. Environmental factors can also play a role in determining which genes are expressed and how traits are developed.
