Dominance.
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.
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.

An allele that always shows up in an organism's phenotype and masks the expression of another allele is called dominant. Dominant alleles are always expressed, even when paired with a recessive allele.

The recessive allele.
This is called complete dominance, where one allele completely masks the expression of another allele in a heterozygous individual. The dominant allele is expressed phenotypically, while the recessive allele remains hidden.
Aa. This is the heterozygous condition. Two alleles, one of which is dominant and masks the expression ( to varying degrees ) of the other allele. 'A' dominant and 'a' recessive. So, if the trait in question is the recessive allele the dominant allele masks its expression and the organism is a ' carrier ' of the trait and can pass it on to progeny.
If this happens, the dominant allele masks the recessive allele.
because it dominates the phenotype
