What is the difference between homzyguos and heterozyous?

Homozygous recessive: is when the genes are both recessive Homozygous dominant: is when the genes are both dominant (traits show) Heterozygous dominant: is when one gene is dominant and one is recessive (traits show) Heterozygous recessive: is the same as heterozygous dominant but the dominant genes are inactive


When neither of the genes are dominant or recessive the genes are said to be?

genes can be codominant for example in blood groups a person can be A,B,AB or O. neither A nor B is more or less dominant than each other but they are dominant over O. there are many other types of dominance/recessive relationships in genes. you could look up epistasis on wikipedia to get a better idea of the bigger picture.


The most powerful genes are said to be?

Dominant, as in dominant and recessive (weaker) genes.


What are the difference between dominant and recessive genes?

Dominant genes will cover up recessive genes. Take a simplified version of eye color for example. Brown is dominant and blue is recessive. Someone might have the allele for both brown and blue, but their eyes will be brown because of the dominent brown gene. If there are two parents that carry the recessive gene, neither will be blue eyed, but they will have a chance of having a blue eyed child if both pass on the recessive gene.


What is the difference between dominant and recessive gene?

There are no such things as dominant and recessive genes. There are only dominant and recessive alleles. Dominant alleles are parts of a gene that present its features over the recessive allele, which is the one that is always masked by the dominant allele. The recessive allele's trait only shows if both of the alleles in a trait are recessive.
