It depends on what your trait is. Let's say that your trait was tongue roller. Rolling your tongue is dominant over non-tongue rollers so we would use R for Rolling your tongue. For the recessive trait, non-tongue roller, we use the same letter as the dominant trait except it is lowercase. So non-tongue roller would be r.

Not expressed when the dominant form of a trait is present?
The recessive trait isn't present when the dominant form of the trait is there. Whenever a trait is dominant trait is present it ALWAYS takes over the recessive one. the law of Dominance
Trait of an organism that can be masked by the dominant by the dominant form of a trait?

Trait of an organism that can be masked by the dominant form of a trait?
Recessive trait
One trait masking another form of a trait?
The trait that is masked is recessive. The trait that does the masking is dominant.
What trait masksthe othor form of a trait?
The dominant trait masks the recessive trait.
Which form of gene pair is expressed when both dominant and recessive are present?
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.
What gene won't display its trait in the prescience of a dominate trait?
The recessive form of a gene, called a recessive allele, will not be expressed in the presence of the dominant form of the gene, called a dominant allele.
What is a trait that is overridden by another trait?
Dominant- Covers up another form of a trait. Recessive- Is covered up by a dominant trait.
Why is it not necessary when the dominant and recessive traits are known to use the term homozygous when referring to the genotype of an individual that has a recessive phenotype?
An organism with a recessive allele from a particular form of a trait will exhibit that form only when the dominant allele for the trait is not present.
What is a trait that is expressed even if only one gene for that form of the trait is inherited?
It is a dominant trait. You only need one gene of a dominant trait for that trait to be expressed. You need two copies of the recessive trait in order for the trait to be expressed.
What describes a trait that is covered over or dominated by another form of the trait and seems to disappear?
The trait that is being masked is recessive, and the trait that is doing the masking is dominant.
