I think you mean to ask what is the difference between RECESSIVE and dominant traits. Simply put, recessive means weaker, dominant means stronger. Every person has 23 pairs of chromosomes. We get 23 chromosomes from our mother and 23 chromosomes from our father. The chromosomes contain genes, which code for our traits - hair colour, eye colour, nose, height etc etc. When the chromosomes join, there can be 3 results:
1). two recessive traits, e.g two genes for blue eye colour
2). one recessive and one dominant traits, e.g one gene for blue eyes, one gene for brown eyes
3). two dominant traits, e.g two genes for brown eye colour.
If 1). occurs, the recessive trait will be expressed. ---> blue eyes
If 2). occurs, the dominant trait will be expressed. ---> brown eyes
If 3). occurs, the dominant trait will be expressed. ---> brown eyes.

What is the difference dominant and recessive trait?
Dominant traits are the traits that mask the recessive traits. The dominant traits are stronger than recessive!
How is dominant trait and recessive trait related?
They are related to each other because whether they are dominant or recessive they are both homozygous, meaning the same. They can either be homozygous dominant or homozygous recessive. If they are heterozygous then they are different because it contains one dominant and one recessive allele each. EX: AA=homozygous dominant allele aa=homozygous recessive allele Aa=heterozygous allele
Which traits oberved were dominant and recessive?
In genetics, dominant traits are those that are expressed when an individual has one or two copies of the dominant allele, while recessive traits are only expressed when an individual has two copies of the recessive allele and no dominant allele present. Dominant traits often mask recessive traits in heterozygous individuals.
What do organisms pass to their offspring?
They pass on traits. There are recessive traits and dominant traits. The dominant trait is normally the one that overpowers recessive
How is codominance different from a dominant and recessive relationship?
In codominance, both alleles in a gene pair are expressed equally, resulting in a blending of traits. This is different from a dominant and recessive relationship, where one allele is dominant and masks the expression of the recessive allele.
How is Dominant and Recessive differ?
Dominant traits are expressed when just one copy of the gene is present, while recessive traits require two copies to be expressed. Dominant traits mask recessive traits when they are both present.
How are dominant and recessive genes related?
Dominate them. Recessive alleles do not show in your phenotype unless you have two of the same recessive allele. But if you inherit one dominant and one recessive, it is the dominant that always shows in your phenotype.
When does a recessive trait dominant over a dominant trait?
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.
How are dominant and recessive genes?
If you are talking about traits, dominant traits and recessive traits both have alleles. Dominant traits are alleles that cover up the expression of other alleles. One dominant allele with one recessive allele makes a dominant trait. Two dominant alleles together also make a dominant trate. Recessive traits are alleles that are only expressed when there is no dominant trait to cover them up. Two recessive alleles make a recessive trait. Traits can be passed over to the next generation. Two alleles together make a genotype, which is the inherited combination of alleles. Alleles: different versions of the same gene. Heredity: determined by genes. Genes: piece of DNA that shows the cell how to make a protein it needs.
What genes are recessive traits?
These traits are called dominant traits. They will overcome the recessive gene and the dominant trait will be expressed. A recessive gene needs two alleles present in its genotype to be expressed.
What are the type of traits?
I think it is Dominant and recessive.
How are recessive and genes related?
If you are talking about traits, dominant traits and recessive traits both have alleles. Dominant traits are alleles that cover up the expression of other alleles. One dominant allele with one recessive allele makes a dominant trait. Two dominant alleles together also make a dominant trate. Recessive traits are alleles that are only expressed when there is no dominant trait to cover them up. Two recessive alleles make a recessive trait. Traits can be passed over to the next generation.
