The gene for fangs is recessive yet most of the dragons have fangs how can this happen?
If the gene for fangs is recessive, it means that both parents must carry the gene for their offspring to have fangs. It is possible for two dragons that both carry the recessive gene to mate and produce offspring that express the trait. This can happen if the gene for fangs is present in the genetic background of the dragons, even if it is not always visible.
What else can I help you with?
Which of these is a gene that does not express itself and is concealed by the presence of another gene of the same trait?
A recessive gene is a gene that does not express itself in the presence of a dominant gene of the same trait. When an individual inherits two recessive genes for a trait, the recessive gene will be expressed.
Genes that are only seen when paired with a recessive gene?
if u have a recessive gene with a recessive gene then u can see the recessive gene but if you have a dominant gene with a recessive gene you can only see the dominant gene hope that helps:)
A gene that can be masked by another gene is called?
A gene that can be masked by another gene is referred to as a recessive gene. This means that the trait associated with the recessive gene is expressed only when two copies of the gene are present.
What gene won't display its trait in the prescience of a dominate trait?
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.
When both parents contribute to the gene pair are recessive the pair is referred to as the?
The gene pair is referred to as homozygous recessive. This means that both copies of the gene are recessive, resulting in the expression of the recessive trait.
What would happen is selective pressure changed and the recessive gene was selected for?
If selective pressure changed and the recessive gene was selected for, individuals carrying the recessive gene would have a higher chance of surviving and reproducing, leading to an increase in the frequency of that gene in the population. Over time, this could result in the recessive gene becoming the dominant trait in the population.
Which of these is a gene that does not express itself and is concealed by the presence of another gene of the same trait?
A recessive gene is a gene that does not express itself in the presence of a dominant gene of the same trait. When an individual inherits two recessive genes for a trait, the recessive gene will be expressed.
A gene is recessive when?
Most genes have two copies of each gene with dominant gene "trumping" the recessive one. The gene is recessive because it is said not to do much of anything unless paired with another recessive gene, but if paired with a dominant gene, the dominant gene wins.
Genes that are only seen when paired with a recessive gene?
if u have a recessive gene with a recessive gene then u can see the recessive gene but if you have a dominant gene with a recessive gene you can only see the dominant gene hope that helps:)
Is leukemia a recessive gene?
recessive.
A gene that can be masked by another gene is called?
A gene that can be masked by another gene is referred to as a recessive gene. This means that the trait associated with the recessive gene is expressed only when two copies of the gene are present.
What gene won't display its trait in the prescience of a dominate trait?
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.
You can be a carrier of a recessive gene as part of your?
You can be a carrier of a recessive gene as part of your genotype.
The weaker of two genes is called what?
The weaker of two genes is called the recessive gene. In the presence of a dominant gene, the recessive gene is not expressed in the organism's phenotype.
When both parents contribute to the gene pair are recessive the pair is referred to as the?
The gene pair is referred to as homozygous recessive. This means that both copies of the gene are recessive, resulting in the expression of the recessive trait.
How many copies of a recessive gene does it take to overpower a dominant gene?
It takes 8 copies of a recessive gene to overpeower dominant gene
Which type of gene or gene combination can be present in a generation without affecting phenotype?
A recessive gene or gene combination can be present in a generation without affecting the phenotype if it is masked by a dominant gene. This means that the trait associated with the recessive gene will only be expressed if an individual inherits two copies of the recessive gene.
