The recessive trait isn't present when the dominant form of the trait is there. Whenever a trait is dominant trait is present it ALWAYS takes over the recessive one. the law of Dominance

Which form of gene pair is expressed when both dominant and recessive are present?
If the gene is governed by a dominant and recessive allele, then if the dominant allele is present, the dominant trait will be expressed. If both alleles are recessive, then the recessive trait will be expressed.
What is a trait that is expressed even if only one gene for that form of the trait is inherited?
It is a dominant trait. You only need one gene of a dominant trait for that trait to be expressed. You need two copies of the recessive trait in order for the trait to be expressed.
What gene won't display its trait in the prescience of a dominate trait?
The recessive form of a gene, called a recessive allele, will not be expressed in the presence of the dominant form of the gene, called a dominant allele.
Is a recessive gene expressed?
Ok, im assuming your question is "if two recessive alleles are present will the trait be expressed" A trait will be expressed if two alleles are recessive but it will not be the same representation as two dominant alleles. For example, T being a tall pea plant and t being a small pea plant. Two recessive alleles or, homozygous recessive, alleles The other option would be there is one dominant and one recessive, heterozygous, which would look like Tt. This would take on the trait of the dominant allele usually expressed by the capital letter. So this heterozygous plant would be tall.
The form of a trait that appears to mask another form the same trait is called what?
Dominant Trait

The form of a trait that appears to mask another form the same trait is called what?
Dominant Trait
Why is it not necessary when the dominant and recessive traits are known to use the term homozygous when referring to the genotype of an individual that has a recessive phenotype?
An organism with a recessive allele from a particular form of a trait will exhibit that form only when the dominant allele for the trait is not present.
Trait of an organism that can be masked by the dominant form of a trait?
Recessive trait
What is a trait that is overridden by another trait?
Dominant- Covers up another form of a trait. Recessive- Is covered up by a dominant trait.
What trait masksthe othor form of a trait?
The dominant trait masks the recessive trait.
What describes a trait that is covered over or dominated by another form of the trait and seems to disappear?
The trait that is being masked is recessive, and the trait that is doing the masking is dominant.
