What is a gene whose effect can be hidden?

A recessive gene is a gene whose effect can be hidden in the presence of a dominant allele. This means that an individual needs to inherit two copies of the recessive allele in order for its effects to be observed.


A gene is recessive when?

Most genes have two copies of each gene with dominant gene "trumping" the recessive one. The gene is recessive because it is said not to do much of anything unless paired with another recessive gene, but if paired with a dominant gene, the dominant gene wins.


What is a version of a gene that masks the effect of another version?

A dominant gene is a version of a gene that will be expressed and mask the effect of a recessive gene in a heterozygous individual.


What gene produces an effect only in the homozygous state?

Recessive genes typically produce effects only when an individual is homozygous for them, meaning they have two copies of the recessive allele. If an individual is heterozygous for a recessive gene, the dominant allele will often mask the effects of the recessive allele.


A plant with two recessive genes for height is crossed with a plant with one dominant and one recessive gene for height What genes will their offspring have?

hh X Hh You get two recessives; hh and hh and two heterozygous plants; Hh and Hh


Which of these is a gene that does not express itself and is concealed by the presence of another gene of the same trait?

A recessive gene is a gene that does not express itself in the presence of a dominant gene of the same trait. When an individual inherits two recessive genes for a trait, the recessive gene will be expressed.


Genes that are only seen when paired with a recessive gene?

if u have a recessive gene with a recessive gene then u can see the recessive gene but if you have a dominant gene with a recessive gene you can only see the dominant gene hope that helps:)


Is leukemia a recessive gene?

recessive.


A gene that can be masked by another gene is called?

A gene that can be masked by another gene is referred to as a recessive gene. This means that the trait associated with the recessive gene is expressed only when two copies of the gene are present.


In a heterozygous organism one gene shows itself while the other gene is?

In a heterozygous organism, one gene may be dominant while the other is recessive. The dominant gene expresses its trait, overshadowing the effect of the recessive gene, which does not manifest in the organism's phenotype. This relationship is a fundamental principle of Mendelian genetics, where the dominant allele can mask the presence of the recessive allele in a heterozygous pairing.


What gene won't display its trait in the prescience of a dominate trait?

A recessive gene will not display its trait in the presence of a dominant trait. A recessive gene only expresses its trait when paired with another copy of the same recessive gene.


You can be a carrier of a recessive gene as part of your?

You can be a carrier of a recessive gene as part of your genotype.
