Dominant 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.
A trait that is covered over or dominated by another form of the trait and seems to disappear is called a recessive trait. In genetics, recessive traits only manifest when an individual has two copies of the recessive allele.
A recessive gene will not display its trait in the presence of a dominant trait. A recessive gene only expresses its trait when paired with another copy of the same recessive gene.
Incomplete dominance is when one allele does not completely mask another allele, resulting in an intermediate phenotype. This can occur when both alleles contribute to the trait, rather than one completely dominating the other.
A variant is one version or form of a trait.

alleles
The form of a combination of two traits that may be hidden is called a recessive trait. This means that the trait is not expressed unless an individual has two copies of the recessive allele.
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 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 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 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.
Polydactyly is a genetic trait that can mask the presence of the recessive trait for normal digit number in humans. This means that individuals with polydactyly (extra fingers or toes) can carry the recessive allele for normal digit number without expressing it themselves.
Incomplete dominance is when one allele does not completely mask another allele, resulting in an intermediate phenotype. This can occur when both alleles contribute to the trait, rather than one completely dominating the other.
The form is called a Pedigree chart.
