What else can I help you with?
The weaker of two alleles in a pair that is often masked by the dominant allele?
The recessive allele.
What is called when you have a pair of genes that cnsits of a dominant allele and a recessive allele?
heterozygous
What is a term for a gene pair dictating trait?
its a allele
What is the term used to describe the strongest gene from a pair of genes?
The dominant allele.
What is a recessive genes?
Recessive is a relative term used to describe the relationship to another allele termed the dominant allele. That traits of the recessive allele will only be shown if the person has two copies of the recessive allele. If a dominant allele is present, then the recessive trait will not be shown.
What gene pair is made up of one dominant allele and one ressecive allele?
A heterozygous condition resulting in the dominant genes expression in the phenotype.
Which one pair of genes is the weakest?
It is difficult to determine a specific pair of genes as the "weakest" because gene strength can vary depending on context. Generally, genes may be considered weaker if they have lower expression levels or if mutations in them have a milder effect on the phenotype.
One member of a pair or series of genes that occupies a specific position on a specific chromosome is referred to as?
An allele is one member of a pair or series of genes that occupies a specific position on a specific chromosome. Each allele can encode a specific trait or characteristic. When two alleles are present in an individual, they can interact to determine the physical and physiological traits of that individual.
What type of allele masks the expression of the recessive allele?
Two recessive alleles can not take over a dominant allele because there are only two alleles in a pair. This can only happen if there is a mutation because the dominant always takes over the recessive.
Does a gamete only receive one allele or another from a pair?
A gamete receives one of two genes from one parent and one of two genes from the other parent.
What is an alternate forms of genes?
An Allele
What is name of the two genes one on each chromosome of a pair that control the same trait are called?
They are called alleles. Each allele is a different form of the gene, and they can be dominant or recessive.
