What is the name of a weak trait that is masked by a stronger trait?
A weak trait that is masked by a stronger trait is often referred to as a "shadow trait" or a "secondary trait". These traits may not be immediately apparent due to the dominance of the stronger trait.
13 What is the name of a weak trait that is masked by a stronger trait?
The weaker trait is called the recessive trait The stronger one is called the dominant trait
Trait of an organism that can be masked by the dominant by the dominant form of a trait?
A recessive trait is a characteristic of an organism that can be masked by the dominant form of a trait. It is only expressed when an individual inherits two copies of the recessive allele. Examples include blue eye color being masked by brown eye color.
What type of trait that is masked or covered?
dominant
What is traits covering up other traits called?
A trait that masks another trait is epistatic...the masked trait is hypostatic.
In a heterozygote the allele that does not affect the trait?
The allele that does not affect the trait in a heterozygote is known as the recessive allele. This allele is masked by the dominant allele, which determines the observable trait. However, the recessive allele can still be passed on to offspring if both parents are carriers.
What is it called when a trait that is not seen when a dominant gene is paired with a recessive gene?
Heterozygous dominant. Could also be called a masked trait.
When a trait is not expressed when paired with a dominant allele is the definiton of?
The trait that is not expressed when paired with a dominant allele is known as a recessive trait. It is masked by the dominant trait in individuals carrying both alleles.
Trait of an organism that can be masked by the dominant form of a trait?
A recessive trait is one that is not expressed when paired with a dominant trait. It may only be visually evident when both copies of the gene carry the recessive form.
In a hybrid individual the trait that is covered and not expressed is the what trait?
recessive
What is the type of trait that can be masked?
The type of trait that can be masked is known as a recessive trait. In genetics, recessive traits require two copies of the recessive allele (one from each parent) to be expressed phenotypically, while a dominant allele can overshadow or mask the expression of the recessive allele. As a result, individuals with one dominant and one recessive allele will display the dominant trait, concealing the presence of the recessive trait.
When traits seem to disappear when two different genes for the same trait are present?
NO, the traits do not disappear they are simply "masked". According to Mendelian theory there are DOMINANT (A) and RECESSIVE (a) traits. When Aa is present the recessive trait is masked therefore it does not show up. These are called alleles.
