A dominant gene is always expressed if present, and the recessive gene is only expressed with the homozygous recessive genotype. For example, if the dominant gene is red (represented by the letter R) and the recessive gene is white (represented by the letter r), then a homozygous dominant organism's genotype will be RR, and its phenotype will be red. If the organism is homozygous recessive, then the genotype will be rr and the phenotype will be white. If the organism is heterozygous, then the genotype will be Rr, and the organism will be red.
Actually, it is the recessive.................................................................UR WELCOME! :)
The phenotype associated with a recessive gene is only expressed when two copies of the gene are present. For example, if a person has both a recessive allele and a dominant allele for CF, the person does not have CF. The person only has CF if he/she has two copies of the recessive allele.
Phenotype. The physical expressed characteristics of an organisms genotype is known as its phenotype. Two organisms may have the same phenotype, but different genotype depending on the dominate or recessive genes present. Just remember physical=pheno.
Yes. the phenotype is the visible manifestation of a genotype. In the example of fruit flies, if red eyes are dominant and white eyes recessive, than the genotypes "AA" and "Aa" will give a dominant phenotype of red eyes. Conversely, a recessive "aa" will give a phenotype of white eyes.
When genes are expressed, the result is called phenotype. What is actually in all the genes (some are recessive) is called the genotype.

The different forms of a gene are called alleles. In Mendelian genetics, a gene has a dominant allele and a recessive allele. The dominant allele masks the recessive allele if present. So there are two possible dominant genotypes: homozygous dominant, in which both dominant alleles are present; and heterozygous, in which one allele is dominant and the other allele is recessive. The only way to express a recessive trait is to have the homozygous recessive genotype.
A dominant gene is always expressed if present, and the recessive gene is only expressed with the homozygous recessive genotype. For example, if the dominant gene is red (represented by the letter R) and the recessive gene is white (represented by the letter r), then a homozygous dominant organism's genotype will be RR, and its phenotype will be red.

The recessive allele is present, but not shown in complete dominance. This is because the dominant allele is completely dominant over the recessive allele, therefore it is shown, while the recessive allele is hidden.
If the gene is governed by a dominant and recessive allele, then if the dominant allele is present, the dominant trait will be expressed. If both alleles are recessive, then the recessive trait will be expressed.
The phenotype associated with a recessive gene is only expressed when two copies of the gene are present. For example, if a person has both a recessive allele and a dominant allele for CF, the person does not have CF. The person only has CF if he/she has two copies of the recessive allele.

The genotype AA represents a homozygous dominant genotype. The capital letter "A" represents the dominant allele, while the lowercase letter "a" would represent the recessive allele. If both dominant alleles are present in a genotype (homozygous dominant) then the phenotype is "A" phenotype. If one dominant allele and one recessive allele are present (heterozygous dominant) then the phenotype is "A". Finally, if both recessive alleles "a" are present (homozygous recessive) then the phenotype is "a". Therefore, the answer to your question is the genotype AA would result in an "A" phenotype because the genotype is homozygous dominant.
I think the answer your looking for is "the dominant". However depending on what the gene codas for occasionally if both a dominant and recessive are present a different expression will be observed compared to just dominant or just recessive.
