Each gene has two alleles. When an allele is dominant, it will express the phenotype of that allele. Recessive alleles are only expressed when there are two copies of that allele.
Edited answer:
Only those genes are called dominant which show their phenotypic expression in an individual.
A baby's dominent hand is simply just its dominent hand
=== === If you have green eyes and your husband has brown eyes the brown eyes will be more dominent but it is still possible for the child to have green eyes (but less likely)... Darker colours more dominent as opposed to lighter colours being more recessive etc. === ===
mendel is known as the father of genetics. he figured out how genes work using pea plants. he figured out how dominent, recessive genes work. he also figured out how genotypes and phenotypes work.
i think you mean dominent, if not then i don't know. but dominent is used when studying genes or traits. it means that one trait has a higher chance of being shown. dominent traits are easy to find you just look at the person. like say your mother had brown hair and your father had blonde.you and your brother both had brown hair. that would mean that brown was mos likely dominent and blonde was recessive. most likely your children would have brown hair depending on who you married, but being that blonde was recessive or (hidden) then theres chance that they or your third sibling could have blonde hair.
It depends on your genetics. If you have a lot of dominent male genes then chances are greater that you will have another boy. Though, for the most part, it's luck of the draw.
GENES
They are both used to format your genetic make up.
Gametophyte
dominant. It has no "e".
The genes carried on the X chromosome are called X-linked genes, while the genes carried on the Y chromosome are called Y-linked genes. These genes play a role in determining various traits and characteristics in individuals.
different form of genes are called allele
