Dominant genes will cover up recessive genes.
Take a simplified version of eye color for example. Brown is dominant and blue is recessive. Someone might have the allele for both brown and blue, but their eyes will be brown because of the dominent brown gene.
If there are two parents that carry the recessive gene, neither will be blue eyed, but they will have a chance of having a blue eyed child if both pass on the recessive gene.
What else can I help you with?
What is the difference between dominant and recessive gene?
There are no such things as dominant and recessive genes. There are only dominant and recessive alleles. Dominant alleles are parts of a gene that present its features over the recessive allele, which is the one that is always masked by the dominant allele. The recessive allele's trait only shows if both of the alleles in a trait are recessive.
What do you call oransim that posssses two dominant or two recessive genes for a single trait?
Homozygous dominant for two dominant genes or homozygous recessive for two recessive genes.
Can recessive genes become dominant?
Recessive genes do not become dominant. Dominant genes mask the expression of recessive genes in the presence of both alleles. However, if a recessive gene is selected for over time through breeding, it can become more prevalent in a population.
What is the difference between homzyguos and heterozyous?
Homozygous recessive: is when the genes are both recessive Homozygous dominant: is when the genes are both dominant (traits show) Heterozygous dominant: is when one gene is dominant and one is recessive (traits show) Heterozygous recessive: is the same as heterozygous dominant but the dominant genes are inactive
Which versions of genes are dominant over others in genetic inheritance?
In genetic inheritance, dominant genes are versions of genes that are expressed over recessive genes. Dominant genes mask the effects of recessive genes when they are present together in an individual's genetic makeup.
Do dominant genes affect recessive genes?
The dominant genes take over, and then the recessive genes hide away
What is the difference between dominant and recessive gene?
There are no such things as dominant and recessive genes. There are only dominant and recessive alleles. Dominant alleles are parts of a gene that present its features over the recessive allele, which is the one that is always masked by the dominant allele. The recessive allele's trait only shows if both of the alleles in a trait are recessive.
Which genes are dominant and which are recessive?
Dominant genes are always expressed in preference to recessive genes in cased where both genes are present.
What do you call oransim that posssses two dominant or two recessive genes for a single trait?
Homozygous dominant for two dominant genes or homozygous recessive for two recessive genes.
Are dominante and recessive genes responsibile for how baby looks?
Yes, dominant and recessive genes play a role in determining physical traits in offspring. Dominant genes are more likely to be expressed in the phenotype, while recessive genes are typically masked unless an individual inherits two copies of the recessive allele. This interplay between dominant and recessive genes contributes to the variety of physical characteristics seen in offspring.
How do dominant and recessive genes work?
explain how dominant genes work
Can recessive genes become dominant?
Recessive genes do not become dominant. Dominant genes mask the expression of recessive genes in the presence of both alleles. However, if a recessive gene is selected for over time through breeding, it can become more prevalent in a population.
How is codominance difference from dominant and recessive relationship?
Codominance is when 2 dominate genes appear in the phenotype of an organism. (some one else can tell you what dominate and recessive genes are)
If an animal with 2 dominant genes for a trait has offspring with an animal with 2 recessive genes for same trait their offspring can only have what?
Their offspring will have dominant genes. However, if these offspring have offspring with an amimal with recessive genes, the recessive genes will show up.
What is the difference between homzyguos and heterozyous?
Homozygous recessive: is when the genes are both recessive Homozygous dominant: is when the genes are both dominant (traits show) Heterozygous dominant: is when one gene is dominant and one is recessive (traits show) Heterozygous recessive: is the same as heterozygous dominant but the dominant genes are inactive
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.
Which versions of genes are dominant over others in genetic inheritance?
In genetic inheritance, dominant genes are versions of genes that are expressed over recessive genes. Dominant genes mask the effects of recessive genes when they are present together in an individual's genetic makeup.
