the form of a given gene that inheriting only one copy of results in the expression of the trait coded by that allele of the gene

if it was recessive instead inheriting two copies would be required for its expression

An allele that is dominated or cover up by another allele is called what?

An allele that is dominated or covered up by another allele is called a recessive allele. This means that the trait associated with the recessive allele is only expressed when an individual carries two copies of that allele.

If you mean allele, then the answer is a recessive allele. A recessive allele is dominated by a dominant allele, and generally does not show up physically.

What is allele masked by the dominant allele?

An allele that is masked by the dominant allele is called a recessive allele. When an individual has one dominant allele and one recessive allele, only the trait determined by the dominant allele will be expressed. The recessive allele will only be expressed if an individual has two copies of it (homozygous recessive).

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.


When one allele of a gene masks the presence of the allele what form can be seen in the phenotype?

When one allele for a particular trait masks or overrides another allele for a trait, it is called dominance. The allele that is masked is called the recessive allele. The allele that is dominant will determine the phenotype.
