It is the phenotype of a genotype...meaning, it is the actual- physical look of a specific gene not the gene sequence.

What is allele masked by the dominant allele?
The Allele That Is Covered By The Dominant Allele Is The Recessive Allele.
If a trait made an organism less likely to survive and reproduce what would happen to the allele for the trait?
The allele would not be passed on to further generations, as the organism cannot reproduce. There would be a smaller population of that organism who's genetic code does not contain the allele for that particular trait.
Allele that prevents the expression of a recessive allele?
A dominant allele
What is the difference between an inactive allele and an expressed allele?
The inactive allele is invisible in an organism while an expressed allele is the dominant allele and therefor is the phenotype.
What is an allele that always shows up in an organism's phenotype called - an allele that masks the other allele?
The dominant allele.
Many people use the terms gene and allele interchangeably Are they the same please explain?
Gene and allele are not the same thing. An allele is one variation of a gene. A gene refers to the entire genetic code for a trait.
Where does messenger RNA mRNA carries the genetic code from an allele of DNA to?
The site of protein synthesis.
A gene whose code is not expressed unless a similar allele is present is called an?
recessive gene
What is allele masked by the dominant allele?
The Allele That Is Covered By The Dominant Allele Is The Recessive Allele.

What is the difference between a gene allele Chromosome and trait?
Alleles are alternate versions of genes that code for certain phenotypes, or traits. The traits of an individual are a result of the interaction between their genotype (alleles) and the environment.
What is the alternate form of a gene?
The answer is allele
An allele that is dominated or cover up by another allele is called what?
It should be a dominant allele--a dominant allele's trait will be expressed over the recessive allele's trait.
What is a dominent allele?
A dominant allele is an allele that can take over a recessive allele, so if you have a dominant allele and a recessive allele, then the offspring will most likely have a dominant allele over a recessive allele. The dominant allele is expressed over the recessive allele.
In pea plants individuals that are Pp for the alleles that code for flower color will have purple flowers What is the phenotype?
Pp, where P represents the dominant allele and p represents the recessive allele.
Allele that prevents the expression of a recessive allele?
A dominant allele
What is the difference between an inactive allele and an expressed allele?
The inactive allele is invisible in an organism while an expressed allele is the dominant allele and therefor is the phenotype.
