"Life is a great adventure, full of excitement and opportunity." This quote is not a dominant characteristic of Robinson Crusoe as the novel primarily focuses on the themes of survival, self-reliance, and isolation.

This describes a heterozygous trait.
A dominant allele is the gene that hides the other allele for a given trait. It is also a trait or characteristic that came from just one parent.
A dominant allele is a gene that holds a certain characteristic that is superior to a recessive allele. The dominant allele ALWAYS has its trait shown in the body of the recipient, except when both alleles in a gene are recessive.
Depends on the characteristic. Assuming you're talking about a very simple monogenic characteristic (ie. a characteristic which is dependent on one gene only) your dominant allele will always trump your recessive allele. So, one copy of your dominant allele is all that's needed to give you that characteristic (final genotype is either homozygous dominant or heterozygous), whereas you'd need two copies of your recessive allele (homozygous recessive) to get that characteristic. Much beyond that and it gets verycomplicated.
