In order to express a recessive trait, an organism must have two copies of the recessive allele, one inherited from each parent. This is because the presence of a dominant allele will mask the effect of the recessive allele, preventing the recessive trait from being expressed. Thus, only when both alleles are recessive will the trait be visible in the organism's phenotype.
