Is albinism caused by a recessive or dominant gene?
Albinism is typically caused by a recessive gene.
Albinism is a recessive trait in humans that is controlled by a single gene how many recessive alleles must a person have to have albinism?

When does a recessive trait dominant over a dominant trait?
A recessive trait cannot be dominant over a dominant trait. Dominant traits are always expressed over recessive traits in heterozygous individuals because they mask the expression of the recessive trait.
What type of trait prevents the other type from being seen?
A recessive trait. When a recessive allele is with a dominant allele, only the dominanate trait can be seen.
In a hybrid individual the trait that is covered and not expressed is the what trait?
recessive
Is albinism a recessive trait or dominant?
Recessive. The trait will only show up if both parents have the gene recessively (aa). If the genetic make up is Aa or AA, there will be melanin production, meaning albinism is an aa gene only. Albinism is a recessive allele.
Albinism is a recessive trait what is the only genotype that would express albinism?
Albinism is expressed only in individuals with the homozygous recessive genotype, represented as "aa." This means that both alleles for the trait must be the recessive form for the characteristic to manifest. Individuals with at least one dominant allele ("AA" or "Aa") will not express albinism.
Is albinism a dominat or reccesive trait?
Albinism is a recessive trait which will result in a lack of pigmentation in the skin eyes and hair. It occurs about 1 in every 17,000 people in the U.S.

Is diabetes dominant or recessive trait?
It is a recessive trait
In a hybrid individual the trait that is covered and not expressed is the what trait?
recessive
Is albinism controlled by a dominant allele or by a recessive allele?
Recessive allele.
Two parents with normal pigmentation give birth to a child with albinism albinism is not a what?
Albinism is not a dominant trait; it is a recessive genetic condition caused by mutations in genes responsible for melanin production. Both parents can be carriers of the recessive allele for albinism, meaning they have normal pigmentation but can pass the allele to their child, resulting in the child having albinism.
A living thing that shows a dominant trait may be homozygous dominant or homozygous recessive for the trait true or false?
False because a living thing that shows a dominant trait can not be homozygous recessive. If it is homozygous recessive it will show recessive trait. A living thing that shows dominant trait may be homozygous dominant or hetrozygous.
