What type of allele is masked when a dominant allele is present?
The recessive allele is masked when a dominant allele is present. Dominant alleles are expressed over recessive alleles in heterozygous individuals.
What happens to the recessive allele in a heterozygous offspring?
In a heterozygous offspring, the recessive allele is present but not expressed because the dominant allele masks its effects.
What is it called having a dominate and recessive allele?
Having a dominant and recessive allele is known as Mendelian inheritance, named after Gregor Mendel, the scientist who first described it. In this type of inheritance, the dominant allele masks the expression of the recessive allele in heterozygous individuals.
Is an allele that produces a trait in the heterozygous condition recessive?
No. A recessive allele will not be expressed phenotypically in the heterozygous state. A recessive allele can only be expressed phenotypically in the homozygous state.
What type of allele masks the expression of the recessive allele and is therefore expressed in the heterozygous?
A dominant allele will mask the prsence of a recssive allele
What is the term for an allele that is not expressed in the phenotype of a heterozygous individual?
incomplete dominance source: PH Bio textbook

What is the type of allele that only effect the phenotype in the homozygous chromosome?
Recessive. Dominant alleles are expressed in both homozygous and heterozygous individuals (DD or Dd), but recessive alleles are only expressed in homozygous individuals (dd).
Is an allele that produces a trait in the heterozygous condition recessive?
No. A recessive allele will not be expressed phenotypically in the heterozygous state. A recessive allele can only be expressed phenotypically in the homozygous state.
If an allele for a particular trait is not expressed at all when another allele for the trait is present the allele is?
The allele not expressed would be recessive whilst the other is dominant. This would be the case in a heterozygous genotype. Hope this helps
What type of allele masks the expression of the recessive allele and is therefore expressed in the heterozygous?
A dominant allele will mask the prsence of a recssive allele
The difference between a dominate and a recessive trait is?
A dominant trait is expressed when an individual has one or two copies of the dominant allele, while a recessive trait is only expressed when an individual has two copies of the recessive allele. Dominant traits mask the expression of recessive traits in heterozygous individuals.
Which traits oberved were dominant and recessive?
In genetics, dominant traits are those that are expressed when an individual has one or two copies of the dominant allele, while recessive traits are only expressed when an individual has two copies of the recessive allele and no dominant allele present. Dominant traits often mask recessive traits in heterozygous individuals.
What makes a dominant allele different from recessive Allie?
A dominant alle masks the expression of the recessive trait in a heterozygous genotype, a recessive allele is the phenotpye expressed is the recessive trait.
When is a recessive allel expressed in offspring?
A recessive phenotype is expressed in an offspring that has a homozygous recessive genotype for that trait.
