When a gene inherited from one parent masks the expression of the gene inherited from the other parent that gene is said to be?
That gene is said to be dominant. Dominant genes will be expressed over recessive genes in a heterozygous individual.
What is the form of a gene that is hidden or masked when any other form of that same gene is present?
The hidden or masked form of a gene is called recessive. Recessive genes are only expressed when an individual carries two copies of the recessive allele. When a dominant allele is present, it will be expressed instead of the recessive allele.
What is allele masked by the dominant allele?
An allele that is masked by the dominant allele is called a recessive allele. When an individual has one dominant allele and one recessive allele, only the trait determined by the dominant allele will be expressed. The recessive allele will only be expressed if an individual has two copies of it (homozygous recessive).
What is The general term for an allele that masks the presence of another allele in the phenotype?
The general term for an allele that masks the presence of another allele in the phenotype is "dominant." Dominant alleles are expressed phenotypically when present, masking the effects of recessive alleles.
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 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 gene inherited from one parent masks the expression of the gene inherited from the other parent that gene is said to be?
That gene is said to be dominant. Dominant genes will be expressed over recessive genes in a heterozygous individual.
A gene that is not expressed when paired with a dominant allele is called?
A recessive gene. These genes are masked by dominant genes when they are present together in an individual's genetic makeup.
What is the form of a gene that is hidden or masked when any other form of that same gene is present?
The hidden or masked form of a gene is called recessive. Recessive genes are only expressed when an individual carries two copies of the recessive allele. When a dominant allele is present, it will be expressed instead of the recessive allele.
When on e allele of a gene masks the presence of the other allele what form is masked?
The recessive allele.
Traits seem to disappear when two different genes for the same trait are present?
This phenomenon is known as dominance, where one gene masks the expression of another gene for the same trait. When an organism carries two different genes for a trait, one gene is dominant and determines the observable trait, while the other gene, known as recessive, is not expressed in the presence of the dominant gene.
When one allele of a gene masks the presence of the allele what form can be seen in the phenotype?
When one allele for a particular trait masks or overrides another allele for a trait, it is called dominance. The allele that is masked is called the recessive allele. The allele that is dominant will determine the phenotype.
When allele of a gene masks the presence of the other allele what form can be seen in the phenotype?
When one allele for a particular trait masks or overrides another allele for a trait, it is called dominance. The allele that is masked is called the recessive allele. The allele that is dominant will determine the phenotype.
What one allele of a gene masks the presence of the other allele what form can be seen in the phenotype?
When one allele for a particular trait masks or overrides another allele for a trait, it is called dominance. The allele that is masked is called the recessive allele. The allele that is dominant will determine the phenotype.
When one allele of a gene masks the presence of the other allele what form can seen in the phenotype?
When one allele for a particular trait masks or overrides another allele for a trait, it is called dominance. The allele that is masked is called the recessive allele. The allele that is dominant will determine the phenotype.
What is allele masked by the dominant allele?
An allele that is masked by the dominant allele is called a recessive allele. When an individual has one dominant allele and one recessive allele, only the trait determined by the dominant allele will be expressed. The recessive allele will only be expressed if an individual has two copies of it (homozygous recessive).
When one allele of a gene mask the presence of the allele what form is masked?
Dominant
